Has Yale rejected anyone yet?

Looks like they have forgotten to update their twitter. It's been several days and looks like few people (at least tls followers) were admitted over the weekend. Sure would be nice to have this done with. Only waiting on Stanford and Yale.

Not to be presumptuous, but if you get on the WL, how long do you plan on riding it? I would stick around until June, I think.
I don't plan on riding the wait list, as I really don't want to write a LOCI (is that generally considered necessary?) and in the meantime I've fallen in love with S. Though I will visit H next weekend.

I will nail myself to the WL cross and ride it into the abyss of eternity, giving alms to Asha and Craig all the while.

*raises hand* me! Not sure why I'm still browsing this thread, but I'm glad they put me out of misery early...even if it did come at 8pm on a Saturday night.

Right now I feel like I would stick it out until the bitter end, but I imagine that once I pick a school and get into the mindset of attending, the prospect of continually waiting for a final Yale decision will seem less and less appealing.

Can we get some news? A round of something today. Anyone optimistic about a wave (read:trickle) of any kind today?

I'm bracing myself for a ding wave today and a WL wave tomorrow. I'm worried, though, that early submitters, if they're dinged, won't hear today, based on last year.

Why would early submitters have to wait longer?

If an early submitter made it until April but was eventually dinged, he or she didn't hear last year until after the WL's went out.

That's weird but I guess I just have longer to wait...

What are we considering the cut-off for "early"?

Do we think we'll definitely hear by Friday 4/15? I'm not sure I'm able to wait much longer before making next year's plans for housing etc.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

I'm pretty sure they announced final decisions in the end of April, as per their Twitter. I'd say it's possible some people might not hear back until after April 15.

I'd say the odds are no longer in anyone's favor. If there are any acceptances left it's very few.

I'd say anything in 2015, maybe through Jan. 2016. But I'm just guessing, really.

Also, I'm surprised by the fact we haven't heard yet today. Further proof that last year is a horrible barometer for this year.
