CODE YALE!

Has Yale EVER called asking for clarification or anything regarding apps and such? I am seriously freaking the hell out right now.

EDIT: I got a call from Yale admissions, missed it, no voicemail, called back and office was closed. Some people who have not applied also got a call. Looks like epic trolling.

I can only imagine how let down I'd be if that happened, especially considering the recent tweet

I am pretty ir9 right now. I didn't expect to have a chance, so this was def a shock. I'll call tomorrow and get clarification, maybe they'll let me in as a pity admit.

Can't imagine it's anything but an admit -- but don't they email if they miss you by phone?

What were non-applicants getting calls about? This seems pretty ridic. I would not be happy.

Unless anyone else got called it seems like a very elaborate prank amongst some friends I have here and me.

Working on identifying the culprit. My general 5 minutes of internet research have indicated that this is, in fact, illegal.

[wealtheow]

:/ not alright

Attax: Nothing in your email/secondary email/spam folder??

Nope, nothing

My understanding is that they follow up the admit calls with an email.

I think you should respond in kind with some other illegal act, murder perhaps. Say you were defending Yale's honor in your C&F addendum.

Challenge them to a duel. I've heard successful dueling is a great soft for Y. But only if you have >3 under your belt.

What kind of duel are we talking here? Swords? Wild west shootout? This kind of info is important to this decision!

No, after realizing it was a prank I have decided the best course of option is to not contact them. I don't want an odd red flag on my application hindering anything.

Oh easy enough! Probably better since I'm a giant target for a wild west shootout.

I get the reasoning and would probably do the same..... but I still think it could be a fun conversation if you get lucky and Asha picks up the phone .

attax, are you 100% sure it's a prank? I've heard of them calling and not leaving a VM before. I'd call the number back this morning and see what's up.

[hibye]

Have you tried googling the number to see if it matches any numbers on the Yale Law website? Alternatively, I could see if it matches the phone number that I got when I got the call, if you would like.

Yeah, since you called the number back at it was YLS admissions voicemail, how could it be a prank?
