Hello [name],
Thank you for applying to our organization. We really appreciate and recognize your time and patience. Our applicant pool this fall was incredibly talented and it was very difficult for us to select our incoming class for this semester. After careful consideration, we regret to inform you that we have not chosen to move forward with your application to be a Spark Board member this semester.
However, we think you might be a good fit for other opportunities within Spark. If you'd like to be notified of further leadership opportunities or if you have a personal venture that could use our support, make sure this form out so we can keep in contact.
This is not the end of the road, however. You were amongst the top 20% of one of our biggest applicant pools this semester. We were really impressed by the work you've done. At the end of a tough deliberation cycle, we determined that we need to understand more about your relationship to Spark's mission. We hope to see you back again next semester and wish you the best of luck on all of your endeavors!
Please know that we want you to be a part of the extended Spark family — our events are open to all and we'll let you know when those are happening. We hope to see you around!
Sincerely,
Spark SC
