While I wish it had been possible to offer you admission…

你要清楚，我做出这样的决定也并不轻松。


However, with nearly 33,000 applications this year for 2,250 openings in the freshman class, competition for admission was extremely intense. As a result of this, many qualified candidates have been denied admission.

那么多人在追我，我只能选一个。
