High School Students Rejects University Rejection Letter

An American teenager has rejected a university’s rejection of her.

Siobhan O’Dell, 17, applied to attend Duke University, only to be told that her application had been unsuccessful.

However, she refused to accept the rejection quietly and replied: “Dear Duke University Admissions. Thank you for the rejection letter of March 26, 2015.

“After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me admission into the Fall 2015 freshman class at Duke.

“This year I have been fortunate enough to receive rejection letters from the best and brightest universities in the country.

“With a pool of letters so diverse and accomplished I was unable to accept reject letters I would have been able to only several years ago.”
