So today I was rejected from Oxford (& there were tears haha) x

[@UnJadedJade]

I. am. so. blessed. Thank you thank you THANK YOU for the beautiful words. I have been completely enveloped in your love and support over the last 24 hours, and I could not be more grateful. Today I woke up feeling not deflated, but content. It really is okay. I feel like I somehow have a new sense of optimism within the scary and crazy and beautiful uncertainty of whatever happens next. Here's to the future hey, I'm glad you're here on this journey x

[@cathrynrosalie1289]

UnJaded Jade i just wanted to tell you, you're not the only one. I had my heart set on cambridge since I was 11 and worked so hard for it. When it didn't work out I was absolutely crushed, I was angry and sad and aimless and then I just got with it. And I wouldn't change it for the world. And this is not to say, don't work hard for something and get it, but I have made the experience that all these things make you grow and shape you in the most amazing ways and often, having to rethink what is going to happen and making new and updated choices actually improves things. One thing, I don't know whether you are thinking about it or not, gap years are amazing. A friend of mine deferred very late and spontaneously in august and had an incredible with incredible experiences. And I wouldn't not have done my gap year for the world. You've been in education all your life and - i don't know, I had an existential crisis when I came back and I dealt with that and now at Uni, I know I've made an informed decision. On the other hand, you are are an incredible young women, smart and hard-working and confident and engaged and you have infinite possibilities in your future. (And sometimes, better things come out of having to go a different way about The One Dream. My sister wants to do medicine, has not managed the test in Germany the first time and now is training as a paramedic for this year and she is learning SO much and has never loved her life more). England has a strange elitism about Oxbridge bjt getting rejected will make you gain perspective and eventually it won't sting so much anymore. So much love xxx

[@thedoorhandles111]

What's with all the negativity in the replies yall? Jade has obviously tried incredibly and, for that, I have so much respect for her. Also, so what if she monetises her videos? She's a teenager, this is probably her only source of income. Good luck Jade, I'm positive that you'll find your place in a university that's right for you xx

[@emmasu6803]

[@harrietb325]

Jade - four years ago, I got rejected by Oxford too, when others from my school were accepted. One girl in particular, who did get a place, rather enjoyed taunting me about it. I ended up having the most INCREDIBLE three years at Lancaster University, not just academically, but also personally. I graduated with a first class honours degree in History and Politics, and I left having grown as a person. During my last year, I was accepted on to one of the most competitive graduate schemes in the UK, and I'm now partway through my first year on the scheme. And you know what? The girl who taunted me about not getting a place at Oxford, when she did, also applied to this graduate scheme, and WASN'T successful. Now I'm not like her, I didn't take any delight in that. My purpose of mentioning it, is to simply stress that attending Oxford (or Cambridge), doesn't necessarily mean success afterwards. Just as Oxford decided I wasn't right for them, the organisation I now work for decided my former classmate wasn't right for their graduate scheme, despite that piece of paper with University of Oxford on it. You are clearly dedicated, hard-working, and ambitious, and if you continue to carry that with you, you will do great things. Good luck!

[@kiera]

I’ve followed you since you started your channel and I owe you SO much for getting me through GCSES (and a 9 in lit ahah). But after that I got rejected from a sixth form I REALLY wanted to go to because school was my life and was absolutely devastated. But 5 months later I am a full time KZbinr and my life couldn’t be on MORE of a different course. (Not that I recommend dropping out of school ahah). Just remember that it won’t mean anything in a few months time when you’re exactly where you want to be.

[@UnJadedJade]

Awhh Kiera!! I appreciate this SO much, thank you 💘 and woahh full time KZbin, get you ;) I'm sorry that you didn't get into that sixth form, but I really am such a big believer in things happening to lead you where you need to be. Lots of love xxx

This is so disheartening wow! I mean jade literally has it all. She performed SO incredibly well on her GCSEs, did DofE, is headgirl, did so much extracurricular activities such as NCyes, and then went on to achieve even more outstanding A-level grades and literally outdid herself by being amongst get the top performing student. She put so much time, effort and compassion into the process of applying to Oxford! She is kind, hardworking and totally deserving💞 jade you are incredible and Oxford has lost such a great person, but I believe this is opening doors to even better things🧚🏾‍♀️I wish the best and I hope that during your gap hear you find and fall in love with the true place that was meant for you❤️❤️

[@bambi7233]

Jade it’s Oxford that should be truly upset, they’ve missed out on such a gem. Keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll be successful wherever you go... have you thought about reapplying after your gap year if it’s still something you want to pursue? It’s so hard to get in with a deferred entry as well, so to still get an interview was amazing! God bless xx

[@unicornss1444]

Honestly, the most positive thing that comes out of this is that it inspires thousands of people to try and try and that before succeeding you will always fail. You succeed in every way possible and this minor setback just proves to us all you're human. You're honestly so brave for showing us every step of the way. Thank you from everyone

[@lilye4146]

Please don’t be too disheartened! You’re a talented and lovely girl. I and many others would never even have the guts to apply to such a regarded place. You have so many good attributes and you’re sure to achieve many things regardless of where you can go. The best thing you can do is accept this moment which will be painful (it would be very much for anyone) and push through and persevere. Make it so that they will regret not having you! You will realise at some point that you did not need Oxford at all and you’re highly capable wherever you end up. I’m 100% sure everyone in your school is proud and impressed by your current achievements! Stay strong and believe in yourself!

[@emmaketley7292]

I didn’t apply to Oxford but really wanted to go to Edinburgh Uni. I didn’t get in and was super sad about it. That was 7 years ago and I’ve just finished my PhD & I’m about to get married to someone I met at my second choice institution.

It's their loss! Don't be down about it, I got rejected from Oxford, St Andrews and Cambridge years ago! But guess what, I never went to university in the end and I am now doing the job I've always wanted to do, sports journalist! Never went to Uni!

Jade, this video has helped me so much. I completely understand your disappointment as I am in a similar situation to yourself. I am in my final year of university and applied for a summer job at Disney World in Florida. I made it through three stages of interview that all involved a great deal of travelling. The final outcome is that I have been waitlisted, which I found out on my 21st birthday. Obviously, Disney isn't Oxford, but I just wanted to say that I completely understand where you're coming from. You've also made me realise that it is not the end of the world, and there are many other routes/options. Thank you so much, and it is so clear that your future is going to be incredible xx

I've also had a very horrible yet upsetting day today (the worst).I literally was like you today, the excessive stress and tears when waiting for the decision email, and then when I found out that that I had been rejected from Cambridge University I thought that all my hard work had gone to waste because everything I worked for was for my dream to go to Cambridge university to study medicine simply because I loved medicine and the way it was taught. I also don't want to go to school, dreading my head of sixth form and everyone asking me 'did you get in?' Thank you for your comforting words of wisdom and reassurance and don't worry I'm sure you will continue to shine as an awesome biologist in another university. Again, it is their loss on a potentially incredible applicant

[@starr2870]

[@fatimanaimi8288]

Hey Jade, I’ve wanted to go to Cambridge since the age of 14, I worked my arse off and guess what... yesterday I found out I received a rejection. Yeah there were tears for a while but I’m taking it way better than I thought I would. I’m honestly so proud of how I conducted myself through every stage of the process and you should be too! We’re in the same boat and saying it’s not shit would be a lie but it’s not the end of the world. I’m so excited for the LSE and so honoured both the LSE and UCL gave me offers. I’m sure you’ve had offers back from other amazing unis and will smash it anywhere you go. I don’t know if you believe in God but for anyone who does and received a rejection from whatever university, you can’t battle with what God knows is best for you. And even if you don’t believe in God, everything happens for a reason. If it was meant for you, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN YOURS, NO MATTER WHAT. I completely relate when you say the pressure from other people is the hardest thing to deal with. Practically the whole worlddd wants to know how you did and it’s exhausting repeating the news but you are the most important person on this journey. As long as you give yourself time off and come to terms with it yourself, other people will not matter. Three people applied to Oxford out of your entire year! A similar number from mine! Most people don’t even have Oxbridge on their radar! Treat the process and the interviews as a valuable experience that you had the opportunity to have out of sooo many others that did not. A rejection has motivated me like nothing else. London is one of my most favourite places in the world, the only thing that pulled me towards Cambridge over the LSE was accommodation 😂 but I know I’ll make that work. Be excited for this next chapter of your life, it’s where you’re meant to be. Sending you love x

[@elizacasey1953]

I went through the exact same thing last year when I was rejected. I got an email during my first lesson but didn’t tell anyone because I found it so hard and embarrassing. I totally agree with how deflating the process is and it’s so disheartening, but it’s really not the end of the world. The thing I found hardest was telling people but they were so positive and supportive. I’m now on my gap year and feeling so so positive about the future! You have amazing things ahead of you, and you deserve to be successful! Just remember your intelligence is not defined by this and you’ll still do amazingly at another university. It will seem so insignificant by this time next year. Sending love x

[@rochelle1199]

Wherever you go, make sure you have THE BEST experience possible. Meet amazing people, keep working hard, learn new things and get that degree!

[@annabilling4072]

I watched this when it was first posted and it is probably what inspired me most to apply. For me, the whole way through the application process, the fear of rejection scared me from applying but this video showed me that rejection is still ok. I did it. I got an interview which in itself was above my wildest dreams. And then today I was rejected. I have never related to a video as much as I have now. Thank you for your honesty and positivity. 💛

[@caitlinc-r2957]

I'm a bit of a believer in fate and I feel like if you're rejected it's because you'd be a better fit somewhere else. It's such a massive disappointment at the time but I'm sure you'll go on to have a great time elsewhere. But it does seem totally unfair when you look at someone like you who seems so deserving and is clearly such a hard worker.

[@georgeb3143]

Caitlin Cashmore-Roche No such thing as fate she just wasn't good enough sorry x

[@caitlinc-r2957]

Why would you say this like two days after she's been rejected? I'm sure she already feels bad, no need for random people who don't know her at all to say she 'wasn't good enough'. Oxbridge is a complex thing that is by no means just about intellect, it's a lot about personality too and personalities are just different, there isn't one that's better than others.

[@samuelriches9937]

Caitlin Cashmore-Roche Ngl they have the pick of the best so they will just pick the smartest people, I don't think personality will change the decision on whether you get accepted to your course unless you are applying for medicine

[@georgeb3143]

Sorry but Oxbridge isn't complex; if you're good enough you get in. For example, Eve Bennett has the ability to study at Oxbridge, but Jade doesn't.

[@caitlinc-r2957]

Oxbridge is complex, I go to Cambridge and did a ton of research when I was applying. It was far more complicated to apply to than any other university, there are many aspects to the application and it is part luck, part intelligence, part personality. Jade is clearly a clever girl, and I don't know her personally of course but while it could be that she wasn't smart enough, it could just have easily been that she had a bad day in the interview, or that she didn't cope with the pressure well (which is a personality thing)

[@lorenamottram7174]

Jade, although I never usually comment on videos, I feel compelled to give you thus message. The way you see your self is probably completely different to how your friends, family, teachers and I (even as a stranger) see you. Not only are you incredibly intelligent, you are more importantly hard working and self motivated which counts for so much in whatever career path you take to get you to the top. It’s by no coincidence that your channel has grown so much in a short space of time, other than that your personality is something that over 100,000 people admire and strive to be. You are so genuine, honest, caring and beautiful which is what we all love so much about you. Oxbridge doesn’t equal success, but all of these characteristics that you already have do. #teamunjadedjade xxxxx

Jade! Not getting into my uni of choice was probably the best thing that happened to me in hindsight. I also remember feeling so devastated and, as you say, humiliated/over telling people, but I learned through that process how little people cared ... how people’s assessments of me were seemingly unwavering, but more importantly, that I could find and develop my respect for myself, on my own, without external validation. It really sucks at the time, but your love of knowledge and life is evident and that’s so, so much more important that the way you look on paper, in an application. You’re a whole, complex human, and no application process can really do anyone justice. In other words, they rejected your application - not you. I can’t wait to see all that you do accomplish!! I really think the whole uni experience is made by what you bring to it much more than where you are. Lots and lots of love and thanks for your inspiring content!

[@kodi3mae903]

No one deserves to get in more than you. Just remember you inspire so many people everyday including me. When I’m down or feeling unproductive your channel is what I return to. Oxford doesn’t matter, you’ll get far without it, you work hard enough. ❤️❤️

[@fakayhahasan3663]

I watched this video long ago when jade uploaded it. But, today as I also got rejected from my dream university, I am watching this again and yes I can feel her now. lots of love to you jade, you are so brave.

[@potassiumdichromate859]

Jade, this is the first video of yours that I've watched, and I literally failed my driving test because of such a stupid mistake a few days ago. At first I cried just like you did because it's so horrible when you're so hopeful of something and your dreams are just put to an end so suddenly. I hate that feeling of trying so hard, and still not being good enough. And I know that's probably what you feel too atm. But, you're a really kind and genuine human being, and I really believe there is something so much better for you out there! I can't wait to see you thrive and flourish, because whatever you'll do, you're going to be incredible at it, because you seem so passionate and hardworking. You have a beautiful smile, and just keeping being amazing! 😁

[@anonymous2092]

My stomach dropped as soon as saw your Instagram post, I’m so sorry Jade, i know it must be truly crushing but I truly believe that this is fate and that it is ONLY onwards and upwards from here You’ve got this You truly inspire me every single day and I couldn’t give a damn what uni you get in to Sending you all the positive thoughts I can! Xxxxx

[@meganmcleod7678]

Jade you’re amazing and whichever university you choose will be so blessed to have you. So proud of you xx

[@halba6357]

It's Oxford's loss. We still love and always!❤❤❤ Edit: how do u look beautiful even when ur crying? 😂

[@larapyves8967]

i am absolutely lOving watching this video with hindsight!! Baby Jade has no idea what's in store for her!! When she said "i know in a few years that i'll be somewhere better" she was SO right! Minerva babyyy!! hahaha i love how much she's grown from this now :)

[@emilyross692]

i got rejected this year too :( feel so sorry for you too but we’re in this together!

[@emilydarren2702]

Everything happens for a reason 💛 You are such an intelligent, kind person who deserves the best and I hope what you choose to do next will lead you into doing great things... so sorry to hear this. 💕💕

[@irismay7370]

So sorry Jade! But I know that this will only make you stronger and better! You show them what they lost! xxx

[@emilyparry2246]

Love you xx💕💕

[@LittleMissRebecca101]

I was rejected from Oxford last year so I know the feeling! However I took a gap year and applied to Cambridge this year and just got accepted! Don't give up on your dream! Also you already have such a successful KZbin channel so keep working at that and your future is going to be brighter than a lot of people going to Oxbridge!

[@amberfay8022]

I am so sorry Jade. I cried real tears for you because I know how hard it is to have your heart so set on something but you are so beautiful, so intelligent and so inspirational. You’ve touched the lives of so many people and you’ve been working so so hard. Sometimes these things are meant to be but you are a very special flower so maybe you were meant to finish blossoming somewhere else ❤️❤️❤️

[@heyitsfrannie5750]

Aww Jade! You are an amazing person and I truly look up to you. I know that you are a strong person and God has saved a different and better path for you! 🙏💕 All the best Jade x

[@winju2757]

I started tearing up when you cried, I have the same worries on having to talk about not getting in with other people. Don't worry jade, I'm incredibly proud of you and you have a very bright future x ❤️

[@busayooyedoyin7283]

You're so brave for uploading this especially today. Giving you a big internet hug! Lots of love for you ! You're going to be great regardless of where you're going x

[@Karolina-ew4zl]

I'm soo sorry that you didn't get in, they are truly missing out on a star. I truly believe that everyhting happens for a reason, so do not let this letter define you. You are a truly beautiful, wonderful woman that I know will go onto doing amazing things. It is okay to be dissapointed but there are bigger and better things waiting for you, try and keep positive! I am sending you all the love and hugs 💗💗💗💗💗💗

[@wink768]

You are an angel....I cried with you as I watched your open up about your rejection...You are so positive in the video and it seems as if you are encouraging us more than anything else. Your smile is so beautiful and I feel that you will have the best path in front of you. I can't express how wonderful you are ❤️

[@Prettyautumnrain]

I can’t believe it. Even while crying, your smile is the most beautiful thing in the world And that makes me wanna cry. You truly are a beautiful and wonderful human being, inside and outside.

[@c.burnadea5201]

My opinions of Oxford have changed. I have NO IDEA why they would EVER reject someone like Jade. Their loss.☹️

[@jamesh9124]

C. Burnadea because there are thousands of people more talented them her, get over it

[@hanaeltantawy145]

um.... did you not just hear her list all the different KZbinrs who got in??? I do see that point though I guess.

[@meaganharrington8287]

Much love for you Jade, Oxford's loss, not yours

[@HarrietHogg]

I got rejected from Brasenose last year too and felt exactly the same when I found out! It's such a long and intense application process for Oxford and so I completely relate to feeling deflated when you first found out. But honestly, you are such a talented and hard-working person that your future is going to be bright regardless of what uni you go to! This rejection in no way reflects your ability or potential, in many ways success at interview is largely down to luck. So keep inspiring all 111,000 (!!!!) subscribers, you're doing great! Xxx

[@annachovhan]

I have just received my rejection email and oh God, I am so happy to know that i am not going through this alone. Thank you for your virtual support, yous videos are so therapeutic for me, Jade. 💛

[@amyborrett8030]

Oh no Jade😢 Everything will turn out okay in the end❤

[@EmmaR]

Don't worry Jade. My best friend was rejected from Cambridge and she's an amazing student and an awesome person so don't feel bad ❤️

[@paigechalmers3520]

Aww am so sad you didn't get it but just remember everything happens for a reason✨just remember your smart and talented and just because you have got rejected it isn't the end🌻we are always going to support you jade Xx

[@globetrottinglottie522]

I've sent you a private message on Twitter Jade about my experience. But, something even better will come along, just you wait and see. You are an incredibly hard worker and deserve everything you want xxx

[@TheeCocooChanell1]

Lottie Gibbons no one deserves anything hun

[@deepthisamarasinghe3078]

starships fly wtf

[@alexnunns2166]

I secured a place at this point last year, but then my Geography grade fell massively short. I know how you feel, it is truly devastating- especially since family and friends expect you to breeze through it. But please be aware that there really is a marginal difference between the top 30/50 universities. There is always the opportunity to delay your application, but I would advise that you go into a fantastic course at another top university, and perhaps seek to do a Masters or PhD at Oxford later. Chin up lass!

[@Olivia-cu5mh]

Watching this back after knowing you achieved literal perfection on results day is just incredible! You are destined for amazing things Jade and Oxford will be kicking themselves for rejecting someone as outstanding as you! I know you'll do wonderfully at Bristol! Enjoy your gap year x

[@charliehogg1071]

Hi, I only just found your channel but I just wanted to say please don't take the rejection too personally. Last year, I was also rejected from Oxford to study physics and was devastated, and come results day I had another rejection from Imperial. My best friend also got accepted, and whilst I was incredibly happy for her it was very tough. Fast forward to now I am in my second term at Exeter and couldn't be happier. Honestly, I know it's hard now but everything does happen for a reason (also, I bet biosciences was very competitive course so try not to compare yourself to others who went for different courses!)

[@libertysullivan4709]

Everything happens for a reason !! You are so clever and whatever you go on to do will be worth it and be amazing

[@maymoonmohamed6017]

The fact that you got an interview and made it that far shows how successful you are and I hope this strengths you as it’s just an experience and I know you’ll go to an amazing uni regardless ❤️❤️

[@liviebell10]

Really appreciate the honesty in this video, some of my closest friends have been rejected from oxbridge and I definitely sympathise with the disappointment! It's natural to be upset, so don't beat yourself up for that, but try to put things into perspective even though I know that's easier said than done. My friends who were rejected are some of the kindest, most hard working and talented people I know, and although I don't know you personally, I'm sure you are too! Being a well rounded person counts for so much more! Sending big hugs Xx

[@erinbond9156]

Everything will happen for a reason! You are such a strong, deserving, positive and beautiful girl with so much potential! But we are all human, you are such an inspiration to me Jade and I know you'll get into the perfect uni for you another time!

[@alicemidori8087]

So many opportunities are heading your way becuase of your inspiring hard work throughout the years! Please don't beat yourself down for it when your future will still be funominal whether you are in oxford or not! Xxxx

[@maryh4632]

I love to see you being so honest about everything. If you’re not proud of yourself, I am definitely.💜

[@thatunknowngirl8358]

U are a star, Jade! Don't ever forget that. Looking at this, I feel so put off applying for next year especially for med😭😭

[@ikramhassan182]

its ok...it really is ok. Life isn't always gonna be happy and amazing..you will do well and succeed regardless of what barriers (like this one) there are. Some of the most successful people didn't go to oxbridge so just keep that in mind

[@christietheo7167]

I got rejected by oxford as well today and i got to say that your video made me feel much much better. Thank you so much and I’m hoping that you’re having an amazing time on your gap year!!!

[@ellierichards7566]

Oxford doesn't know what they're missing ! I'm so proud of you, you're gonna be okay

[@anaaya3131]

Well, it is sad to hear, but don’t worry, sometimes we get angry over the things that we don’t get which is reasonable, but you never know what lies ahead. Who knows, maybe you could have arrived there and it could have been totally different, you may not have been as happy there, due to the environment or for whatever other reason. You didn’t get into oxford this time, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you are less bright or suitable as a candidate- luck sometimes plays a part too. Also, success is not solely based on the institution one attends, look at some of the top influential people in the world, some of them drop out of school and go through rejection continuously before they can finally get to the place they deserve to be. Jade, keep working hard, inspiring people, success will come in its own time, and we will be here to support you.

[@kourtneykindle661]

Jade, you're such an amazing individual and an inspiration for young girls like me. Your positive outlook on things is something I want to include in my life. You are so strong 💜

[@anushkasikdar2262]

Hi Jade, I found your channel a few years ago and immedetly fell if love your happy go lucky personality. I always watch your videos when I'm feeling sad, or unmotivated. I applied to the University of Pensylvania myself and am hoping to get in. I find our in 16 days or so. I haven't even allowed myself to think of rejection as a reality because I'm afraid I'll accidently manifest a rejection for myself, but honestly, rejection is just redirectionn away from what won't work towards something that will. You are in Berlin now and you are more fulfilled and happy than you have ever been and you have amazing roommates you add so much love to your life. I hope that on day, even if I get rejected from Penn, I will be able to life as fulfilling, positive and happy as your own. Thanj you for inspiring me, for giving me strength and for making this video, it takes so much courage to show vulnerability and so much courage to show rejection- especially in a world that highlights only the best parts of life. I am so excited to both continue on my own journey though life and to join you on your's. Love for the States Xx

[@AlioH89]

There are so many brilliant universities in the UK Jade. I recently recruited for a vacancy in my organisation and 1 out of the 40 applicants has an environmental science degree from Oxford and he didnt get shortlisted. There is so much more out there than Oxford Uni. Best of luck.
