There are many success stories with folks getting into good graduate programs with a big 3 degree. Even the college websites themselves (COSC in particular) lists schools that accepted COSC graduates. It is also well documented on this forum.
What I haven't noticed is any stories on people not getting accepted into programs they applied for. I am well aware that schools take a whole applicant approach on who they admit (finances, family, interviews, GPA, etc), but has anyone been rejected from a program they applied to? Anyone want to share the schools reasoning, if they did provide a reason? Did they not like the credit by exam portion? biases?
Thanks for any responses.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
