Hi all,
I registered for a campus visit but did not turn up. Admissions then sent an email to notify me that they missed me at the event. Subsequently, I replied to apologise and explained that I thought that I cancelled the registration.
Should I still consider applying to the school or is this not a deal breaker?

I would be hard-pressed to believe that anyone who doesn't show up at an admissions event gets a big rejected stamp in their file. That would be capricious and immature and I just can't find it in me that they would do such a thing.
I believe they are probably letting you know that they want you to turn up at these events because they spend a lot of money to put them on. And also potentially that they are reaching out to you personally, even if it doesn't feel personal.
I'm not altogether certain about why they sent the email, but it's probably more of a marketing decision on their part rather than trying to stick it to you. I would just move forward with your plans and Advance confidently in the direction of your dreams

I think it is more of a marketing thing but schools do note these types of interaction so you do want to stay on top of these things. I agree with the above this is not an automatic ding its just not a positive for you. If you are qualified on paper and submit a strong application this will just be a footnote. Good Luck!
