Well, I didn't get Wolf Trap. I mean, I haven't officially been told that, but I know of 3 people who got email offers today so.. that's that. It was basically my last option for the summer, so I kind of literally sobbed about it.. which is so childish, but I was crushed. I don't know. I guess I should know that I'm young and I have a lot of work

snap out of it! The options for you at this point in life are countless. Summer programs are not any true indication of anything--not on a resume, and not in their acceptances. What matters is how you sing and what you bring of yourself to any performance. These particular summer programs, from what i can gather from what you wrote here, are the biggest ones and very much the advertised route to pro singing. But there are SO many ways to be a professional musician, and nothing should keep you out of that career if it is what you want and you work hard.
If you were saving money for summer programs this summer, take that money and do something you want or need to do. Travel, learn a language, visit a 3rd-world country to help or just broaden your perspective, or you could audition for any number of shows to earn more monehy. You are much more than just a voice, and maybe this summer is the perfect chance to develop your entire self without the commercialized summer program, and spend some time with yourself before getting married.
I know I don't know you well at all, but that's my two cents. :) Feel better.
Katie
