Nov 10, 2015 at 18:39 | comment | added | Anonymous | Thank you for the response. You bring up a good point. I can't see the contents of the letter and, thus, there's no way I can confirm my fears. If I send a letter to schools explaining this situation, and it turns out that no negative comments were made in the first place, it could work against me. Honestly, the damage (if any) has already been done and all I can do is learn from this situation. I was sure to share my story with other students at my university as a warning. Once the application cycle is done, no more further damage can be done, I will report this to University officials. | |
