GNE
A GNE, or "Good News E-mail" is an e-mail sent by a university or potential employer expressing interest in a candidate without actually extending an offer. This sort of thing usually causes additional stress for the applicant and does not always end up an acceptance or offer.
The University of LaLaLand sent me a GNE but I still have no idea if I'm actually in. Now I don't know what else to do besides think about Lalaland.
