What are the most memorable funny college rejection stories?

One memorable story was during the college orientation. There was a scavenger hunt. One of the items on the list was a picture with the oldest professor on campus. A group of freshmen ran around the whole campus trying to find this elusive professor. When they finally found him, he was so confused but agreed to take the picture. They were so excited to complete the task.

I remember at a college homecoming, there was a 'find the hidden treasure' event on campus. The 'treasure' was a small statue of the school's founder. Well, a group of students got so excited and competitive that they accidentally dug up a water pipe instead. Water started spraying everywhere and they were all slipping and sliding around. And during the homecoming carnival, there was a dunk tank. The dean of students agreed to be in it. But every time someone threw the ball, the mechanism wouldn't work properly, so he just sat there looking smug while the crowd booed and laughed.

Well, once a student tried to ride a skateboard down the stairs in the library to show off. But he lost control and ended up crashing into a bookshelf. The bookshelf wobbled and a bunch of books fell on him. He was okay, just a bit embarrassed. It was really funny seeing him emerge from under all those books.

I heard about a guy who proposed to his girlfriend in a really elaborate way at a baseball game. He hired the scoreboard to display 'Will you marry me?' But she was so focused on the game that she didn't even notice until the inning was over. By then, she just said no because she thought he was trying to upstage her love for the game.

Well, I tutored a guy in history. He was supposed to remember the dates of important events. But he made up this whole story about how the Battle of Hastings happened because the two leaders had an argument over a piece of cake. It was completely wrong but so funny. He later realized his mistake but still liked his made - up version better.

There was a memorable case where a student filled out the application form for a college in a different language by mistake. He thought it was just a really in - depth form about his language skills. The college was so impressed by his accidental display of confidence in a new language that they actually gave him an interview. Also, a student wrote an essay about how his dog ate his first attempt at an application essay, and then he had to rewrite it in a rush, which led to some really creative and funny writing.

In college, during a drunken night, a student tried to ride a bicycle backwards. He was so convinced he could do it and ended up crashing into a bush. His friends still tease him about it to this day. It was one of those moments that made college life more interesting and full of laughter.

One of the funniest pranks was when students changed the campus radio station's playlist to only play really old and cheesy love songs all day. People were so confused at first, but then they started to enjoy it. It made the whole campus seem like it was stuck in a different era for a day.

One of the funniest college rejection stories I've heard was about a guy who sent in his application with a really creative but completely off - topic essay. He wrote about his adventures in training his pet squirrel instead of something related to academics or his goals. Needless to say, he got rejected, but his story has been passed around as a humorous cautionary tale among students applying to college.

I heard about a group of drunk students who mistook a campus statue for a real person and started having a conversation with it. They were asking it all sorts of questions and even offered it a drink. It was hilarious to watch from afar.
