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.

德雷塞尔大学表示,这些电子邮件原本是想发给被录取的学生的。尽管包含祝贺内容,但这些邮件的目的其实是为了提醒被录取的学生注意最终答复日期。

The emails went out in error to 495 students who had been denied admission to Drexel or submitted incomplete applications.

495名学生收到了这些误发的邮件。这些人都是申请德雷塞尔大学但被拒的,或者是递交的申请资料不完整的。

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."

十七岁的特艾拉· 布克德告诉WTXF电视台,电子邮件是其申请被拒的三周后发给她的。她马上把这个好消息告诉了朋友和家人,但7小时后又被告知这是一场误会。她称自己犹如被“打脸”。

In 1994, the university mistakenly sent early acceptance letters to 25 students.

1994年,德雷塞尔大学也曾失误向25名学生提早寄了录取通知书。
