(单词翻译:单击)

Drexel University in Philadelphia is apologizing to hundreds of applicants1 who were denied admission but then mistakenly received follow-up emails congratulating them on getting in.

数百名未被费城德雷塞尔大学录取的学生随后却收到了来自该校的祝贺信,该校已就此失误向申请者们道歉。
 
The university says the follow-up emails were intended only for admitted students. Though they contained a congratulatory note, their purpose was to remind the admitted students about a reply deadline.
 
The emails went out in error to 495 students who had been denied admission to Drexel or submitted incomplete applications.
 
Seventeen-year-old Tearra Bookard told WTXF-TV the email came three weeks after she was denied admission. She immediately told friends and family the good news only to find out seven hours later it was a mistake. She calls it a "slap in the face."
 
In 1994, the university mistakenly sent early acceptance letters to 25 students.
