I know it's for UG, but still <3

Granted this is coming from someone who will be attending Yale, but I thought that was amazing. I shed a single tear during some of the harmonies...

EDIT:
admitted in roughly equal numbers throughout the admissions season.
So does this mean if you submit early and don't hear anything by now, you're screwed :shock: :x
No. Faculty review probably only started recently, so if you're not considered an auto-admit by the committee, then your app has likely only gotten to "the right places" of late.

That's alright, mine juxtaposes zombie films and gay rights.

So... when can we expect to hear back from them? Is it all at once in late February? Do they gradually release things? Anyone know the approximate day or time period?

I have a friend who heard in the 2nd last week of Jan last year. She had a low 160, and a 3.9+ GPA, so I'm not sure if she was auto-admit or went through faculty-review. And she applied like Oct/Nov.

I wish they had more seats :(

I got the +1 today, completing an HYS sweep!

EDIT: My application was complete on November 19 after submission in the last week of October.

In all seriousness, is Yale it for you managamy?

No, it's unlikely that I'll be spending three years in New Haven.

Yale is my family's favorite school, so I'm looking forward to telling them the news tonight. :D It's going to be another great weekend indeed!

In response to the other question, I haven't secured CLS yet, but the odds are that it'll be H or S for me in the fall.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
