Yale Waitlist 2010 Forum

[highprofessionalism]

I'm in off the waitlist, got the call on Thursday.

Whoa. Congrats! Must feel good?

I second ToriM's call for stats, if you don't mind.

For those who are interested, TLS will be interviewing Dean Asha this week. Feel free to submit any questions you may have:

Wow. In today. Didn't expect it at any point. Very likely attending.

Wow, sincere congrats! Where were you already deposited? And what time did you get the call?

ETA- Checked your stats. Surprised you weren't a shoe-in from the start!

Got the call around 11:00. Had already deposited at Harvard. BEST DAY EVER after Yale more than doubled the amount of need-based aid.

Nice to see some people on here have gotten in.

Quick question: Does it matter that I haven't filled out that Need Access form for financial aid yet? I know I won't qualify for grants and amount of loans isn't going to be a deciding factor, so I only have the Fafsa in so far. But after re-reading the waitlist email, I'm worried they are expecting all the WL people to have submitted both, and not doing so could be a factor in decisions. Thoughts?

I hadn't sent them my FAFSA or Need Access, so I doubt that is a factor (yet?). But they do want them ASAP because we are already past their typical deadlines.

You don't need to fill out a Need Access form if you know you won't qualify for grants. I called up and asked.

Heartbroken.

Heartbroken.

No worries; your life can still be fulfilling.

Mehhhh. We can still be heartbroken though. I'm so with you, ToriM.

It wasn't me, so this is just a public service announcement, but Yale is still pulling from the waitlist. A friend got the call within the past 48 hours.

Springing like the phoenix from its own ashes, false foolish dauntless hope lives on another day (or week? )

Any idea where your friend was previously enrolled/ deposited?

either way, there's going to be a spot at SLS or YLS.

When means that there will then probably be a spot at HCCN....

Yup, in favor of Yale. Looks like a spot at SLS is open (if that's how this waitlist business actually works).
