I know exactly what the solution to this travesty is:
Sue them.
All you have to do is show damages of how this ruined your life and drove you irreversibly into a downward spiral of mental illnesses like obsessive compulsive thread posting disorder, manic ranting followed by depressive self imposed isolationism where your health was destroyed by binges on ice cream, or even schizophrenic delusions of hearing Chewbaccan laughing when none is really there.
Get witnesses lined up, especially experts in social media dynamics, psychology, psychiatry, etc.
In the remedy requested section put something like 1) Free scholarships for me too, or
2) Ten million big ones!

They'll settle out of court quickly. You'll get #1. Their law reps will recognize you have a solid case here. They are a sophisticated institution of higher learning after all, and take these types of matters very very seriously, and the risk of you getting #2 is far too significant.
There is a 99% chance this will work according to my current estimates. I am not being "sarcastic". I'm a Realist.
