Rejection [Purdue University] (Discourse Chronicle)
You have not heard from us prior to this note because your application interested us and we hoped to be able to admit you. But, we had only 8 teaching assistantships, and we admit people when we have secured aid for them. We never secured aid to fund an offer to you.

I know, I let paranoia take me away while I waited out my PhD applications, but I am also impressed with how far I made it in Purdue's admissions. Last time around, I rejected its admission for an MA in American Studies and things turned out for the best anyway.

OK, so the news could have been better...but I told you it might be a good sign that the schools had been holding your applications for so long.
Congrats on making it that far in the Purdue admission process -- really. :)

That would be particularly painful if you hadn't already received an acceptance letter.
