I wonder if anybody here would be willing to post their rejection letters here... For some reason I'm a sadistic asshole and enjoy picking out the harshest of them all. Just to practice what I preach, here are my rejections from Stanford and Caltech:
Caltech:
"Thank you very much for your application to the graduate program in Physics at the California Institute of Technology. After carefully reviewing your application, the admissions committee has decided to decline your application. As you no doubt know, we are able to act favorably upon only a small percentage of the thousands of applications we receive each year. In many cases we are unable to offer admission to highly qualified candidates because of limited space and facilities, or because their interests do not coincide sufficiently well with the needs and interests of our faculty.
Best of luck on your future endeavors. I sincerely hope that you will be able to pursue your graduate work at another university."
Stanford:
"The Admissions Committee in the Physics Department has reviewed your application for admission to graduate study at Stanford University. I regret to inform you that the department cannot admit you to its graduate program.
As you may know, our department receives many more applications from qualified candidates than we can accept, given our faculty size, financial resources, and space restrictions. Consequently, each year many strong candidates must be turned down. I can assure you that the admissions decisions were made with care.
We consider it an honor that so many fine students apply for admission to our department, and we thank you for your application. On behalf of the Admissions Committee, I wish you every success in your career."
I say if we're gonna get offers declined, might as well have fun with the rejections
On an unrelated note:
@G01: Did MIT inform you through email or snail mail? I'm still waiting for my rejection.
