Does Yale ever send decisions (any type-admits, denials- I'm not picky at this point) without updating twitter first? Aka, is there still hope for tonight?

Yeah, they have in the past for sure.

By pure numbers, chances are we have just a few trickles of admits and a lot of dings left. :shock:

There was at least one admit yesterday (seethru).

Maybe since there were a few admits this week, but I feel like there have to be a fair amount of decisions still coming. Even if they're dings, there are a lot of people still waiting and YLS twitter says that they're trying to get decisions out ASAP. Honestly, admissions is probably waiting for faculty to return files.

Also since they admitted some people earlier in the week, they're may have been fewer admit emails going out toward the end of the week.

The thing is, in the past they've said "barely worth mentioning but a few calls later" and then like 3 people here got calls.

The good news Tweet def. seemed to imply more than 1, but obviously our sample is not too reliable because there is some randomness as to who is on here. I would think, though, that the wave(s) Wednesday were what they were referring to. Are there any cases people can remember of YLS calling people on Friday evening/night?

I might be wrong here, but I thought Yale has called people on the weekends before? I clearly need to spend less time stalking previous SLS threads and more time stalking YLS ones :P

I only checked last cycle, but didn't see any weekend rejections.
ETA: I only checked last cycle because I am not exactly invested in this anymore, but it was scoobers who asked, so...

Longtime lurker here...November complete and still waiting (39? 40?). From last year's cycle, I'm thinking it can only be WL at this point. Yale, I appreciate your desire for transparency, but it is really frustrating to know that one or two faculty members probably put me in a certain pile while another one or two sent me to this interminable wait.

My brother thought of a slogan that seems to help: YUCK FALE!

I am pretty sure your brother did not think of that.

But yeah--that's a long wait and it sucks :(

Why is that? We're there not accepts this late last year for people who submitted earlyish?

Maybe we all ended up in the same stack of 50, and our prof is slow but very forgiving.
