b********t 发帖数: 632 | 16 这么写的话语气可以吗?
My name is XXX. I applied for the Master in Science program in XX for Fall
2011 semester and was admitted in early April. I was very surprised to
receive a letter on May 16 from the graduate school that my application has
been denied.
I applied for master programs in two universities last November. In early
April
I received an email (attached) about my admission to the graduate program
at GSU, which I was very excited about. I then contacted the other
university and withdrew my application since GSU is my first choice.
Now I'm a little bit confused about the latest notice. Could you kindly
confirm that it's just a system error and my admission into Fall 2011 master
's program in XX is still official? For your reference, my interest is in
XXX and I prefer Prof. Y as my advisor.
I really appreciate your help to clarify the matter.
Sincerely, |

S***7 发帖数: 657 | 20 Let me recap what you said: A and B schools both accepted you, you like B
better, so you declined the offer from A. Now B school says they don’t
want
you. What you should do?
This is US. We will use law to defend us, of course!
The following is what you can email to B school in response to the
email/letter they withdrow their offer:
Dear XXX,
I have consulted a lawyer; here was what he said to me:
There is a Promissory Estoppel doctrine in the law of contracts. The
doctrine provides that if a party (me) changes his or her position
substantially either by acting (the fact that I declined the offer from
the
A school) or forbearing from acting in reliance upon a gratuitous promise
(B
school’s offer), then that party (me) can enforce the promise against B
school.
I really don't want to use legal procedure for now. But because I declined
the offer from A, if you withdrow your offer, I will end up with no offer
at all. I hope you can reconsider your decision and honor my offer as
shown in the email/letter
you sent to me on Month/date/2011. Thanks! |

就是说没奖学

l*******x 发帖数: 2683 | 76 一般学校offer都是很长得,会说为什么录取你,例如你得背景在众多申请着中拖印而
出blah。。。
然后会给你一个deadline让你accept这个offer,一般是2,3个星期。
最后有dean的手写签名(这个很重要)
有的学校还直接把学号什么的,申请学校宿舍的方法之类告诉你。。。
你的offer似乎不太正式。。。 |

w*****1 发帖数: 207 | 88 那个email根本不算正式offer,在拿到正式offer之前就据掉其他学校 这个不合适的。

收回,最后怎么样不清楚 |

l*****8 发帖数: 1095 | 91 咦,lz不是说这学校开始时候给了奖学金的么,那应该有信件通知说有financial
support的吧? |
S***7 发帖数: 657 | 92 Folks, let’s face it! You have to use legal knowledge to solve this issue!
Let’s start with the question 1: was there a contract formed between the
school and LZ?
Contract formation requires mutual assent to the same terms by the parties,
generally manifested by an offer and acceptance. When the school sent an
email to LZ with the following content “Congratulations. You have been
accepted as a graduate student at XX University”, it was an offer from
the school.
LZ then called the school and said “yes, I accept”. That was acceptance.
The acceptance was done when the offer was still open and valid.
So there was a contract formed between the school and LZ.
Some people say “it’s just an email! And it might not from the school”.
From the facts LZ provided, “the school has admitted 5 people, but somehow
only 2 offers will be honored”, we can imply that LZ was one of the 5
people initially admitted. That means LZ indeed got an offer from the school
initially. After LZ called and accepted the offer, the contract was formed
between school and LZ. I don’t care why the school came up with some BS of
only 2 out of 5 will be admitted.
Ok, I know some of you argue that the email offer might be a mistake. In
this situation, LZ can still sue them on negligence. LZ relied to her
detriment (declined another offer, and have no other choice but wait for one
more year now) upon the offer. And such detrimental reliance was reasonably
foreseeable by the school. The school had a duty to make sure such mistakes
not to be happened. If there was such mistake, they breached their duty.
Their breach directly caused the damages on LZ. So LZ can still sue for
recovery based on negligence of torts law. |
S***7 发帖数: 657 | 93 Question2: is the contract enforceable?
Yes! LZ relied on the school’s email (offer/promise) and declined the offer
from other school. That was a detrimental change of position by LZ. And
this detrimental change was definitely a foreseeable event by the school. As
I mentioned in my previous post, the doctrine of promissory estoppel makes
this contract enforceable. So the school has to honor their offer to LZ. |
w****e 发帖数: 228 | 94 I walked through admission process in GSU and talked physically with staff
in graduate admisison office and the department.
Department makes decison first and the program coordinator will sign the
offer letter;
Department secretary forward all materals to graduate admission office;
Dean in the graduate admission office will review all offers and sign the
offer letter;
graduate office staff will mail the official letters to applicants. Done!
You should not receive any email offer as far as I know. I never received
any email about acceptance from Department or gradute admissin office.
Good luck! |
o****r 发帖数: 131 | 95 of course an emial offer is a legal contract. A contract either in
electronic or hard copy is protected by law. As long as LZ has accepted the
contract, even if it is a mistake made by an individual school staff, the
school has the full obligation to fulfill it. |
d**e 发帖数: 863 | 96 This whole case sounds extremely strange and unreal.
The first email does not look like something a decent
school will send out. The OP should go back and read
that email again, and check the source (full header,
etc.)
There are cases when admission letters were sent out
by mistake. In one reported case, the school apologized
and told them it was a mistake. In another (unreported),
the school admitted all students who were sent the
letter (they were on the lower priority waiting list).
Consequently, those on the higher priority waiting list
were denied.
However, I can't imagine the mistake was not caught
for one month. There is absolutely legal ground to sue.
Any school will not want to go to trail. The cost of
going to trail is too expensive to anyone except
perhaps Harvard. Not to say it's a case the school
has no chance of winning.
So I doubt the authenticity of the story, but believe
the OP should not worry if what she said was true. |

I had a similar experience about a fellowship. I received the award notice
but later they withdrew due to limited fund available.
你要争一下,就争一下,你自己的利益,如果不争也没有人给你出头的。
但是看开一点,你问人家要一个东西,人家不给你,你也没办法。
如果争不到,那就move on. 不要生气了。 |
