Admission Officers Shared The Weird Reasons Why College Applications Were Rejected

College is not for anyone. It is frustrating to know that you have given your best and that it was not enough for an institution. Unfortunately, that is how the system works. Suppose you have applied to go to college. In that case, you have probably received a rejection letter from at least one of your desired universities. And there is something you probably did not get: an explanation. Many people get rejected from college every year. Still, college admission officers choose not to discuss the reasoning behind their decision. That is, until now. In one of the most popular Reddit forums, someone asked, “College admission officers, what is the worst reason not to accept a student?” Here are some of the funniest responses.
