The End of a Dream

I have been refused readmittance to the graduate program. They will not accept my dissertation.

I'm so sorry, sweetie.

Oh, that's terrible, and after all the work you had done to get back into it. I'm so sorry that it happened that way.

That's horrible. Forgive my ignorance about academic matters, but could you maybe apply to a program at a different institution? From my uninformed perspective, it seems likely that all of your course credits and such should be transferable, and you could re-use the research and writing you have already done towards your dissertation, right?

Hugs.

ugh. as a grad student,I know, it doesn't work that way. you have to start over again almost from scratch.

I'm so sorry.

I'm quite upset about this, it makes me cry.

*comfort* I'm so so sorry, hun! :( :( :( I know how much energy you put into getting back into this, and I'm hoping you can find a way to channel it to something else that ultimately proves equally satisfying to you.

Oh no. This is exactly what didn't need to happen. I'm so sorry, I know how much you wanted this. Let me know if you need me,k?
