I got rejected at college and now I'm sad :(?

How do you deal with getting rejected from a college. It was the first letter back from my colleges and of course it had to be a rejection letter. Now I just feel like if I don't get into that school, (which I thought would be easy) how will I possibly get into any other schools. Is there any hope or should I just become a nun? But seriously...I'm just nervous about getting into college now because I don't know what colleges are looking for because I thought I was such a good candidate for the school. I applied to 10 schools total, and I've only heard back from that one.

    Hang in there. You still have nine more letters coming! Keep your head up high and remember that maybe there is a better opportunity on its way. Good luck!

    Well there are 9 more to go.. You will get in somewhere.. This is why we have back up schools and don't only apply to one.. Don't become a nun that life will not be what you are looking for.

    1/10 doesn't guarantee the entire pack. You have to consider the person that's reviewing your application. The person at this college may have a different opinion than the the one at the next. So just be patient and confident. I'm sure you'll get in to at least one. If not, go to beauty school.

    Well it's just 1 of the 10 you applied to. Don't stress too much, you can always go to a junior college for cheap then transfer. Hoping for the best for you!

    With 10 apps you're much safer than _I_ was; I'd only applied to 3 and only accepted at 1: American University in Wash DC. I WOULDN'T apply to a state school, which is almost a guarantee for you.

    You should be sad, a faceless cold heartless institution has rejected you. But cheer up, it's not the end of the world, you have nine more colleges to hear from.

    You will get in somewhere & be happy there.

    You'd get a lot of rejection letters from a lot of colleges before you could enter a mildly decent one.

    That's the cost of sheer stupidity. You should've improved your performance in HS.
