申请Caltech就等于买张彩票

Thank you very much for your application to the California Institute of Technology. After carefully reviewing your application, the faculty has decided that they are unable to grant you admission for academic year 2013 – 14. Caltech is a relatively small school and as such we are able to admit only a small percentage of the thousands of applicants who apply each year. In many cases we are unable to offer admission to highly qualified candidates because of limited space and facilities, or because interests do not match the needs and interests of our faculty.

Your record and qualifications are very good, and we have no doubt of your ability to earn an advanced degree and that you have a successful career ahead of you. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
