Yale c/o 2019 Applicants (2015-2016) Forum

Does anyone know how many people are in the Facebook group? Thanks!

168, a few of whom are admissions officers

Nah but they separate out admins if you look at the count above on the members tab. They also have the number they've invited but have yet to join the group, for a total 200 exactly not counting admins.

Jesus.

I wouldn't worry too much yet. A very large amount of those admits will defer due to Rhodes/Marshalls/finishing grad programs. And a large number are deferrals from previous years. I estimate we still have a bit more than 50 admits to go (I think a previous years ended up with like 270 in the group?)

I'm gonna go with 70. At least 70. Rounds to 100. Thanks for this info!

Yeah I'd say at the very least there's definitely more than 50. The group includes deferrals from last year/previous years as well.

Is it too defeatist to hope for some closure today? As great as it would be to know I'm still in contention, it would be nicer to not have to have one eye on my phone for the next few Saturdays.

Pretty sure my fiancée think I'm cheating on her every Saturday, going off the way I don't let my phone out of my sight.

I'm always entertained by people who do get in missing the call--I have, like, no shot, but I watch the hell outta my phone.

I am one of those people (for a different school), although I did get a voicemail that I'll never delete as a compensation for my misfortune.

I've missed four out of five of my acceptance calls so far because I've been in class/at work. Not the worst thing.

If I'm not in the first wave of dings I'll be disappointed.

Arm in arm?

FWIW, I'm pretty sure Yale calls you back/leaves a voicemail telling you to call them back if they don't reach you the first time (at least in my experience), so you can rest a little easier and not worry too much about missing it! That being said I know it's easier said than done

[bluebook22]

So, no phone calls today?

[Paulaaxox]

So, no phone calls today?

Feeling this! No Yale Mary today.

[darlenealderson]

Just got the rejection by e-mail, good luck all!

[archipm]

Ding via email as well, 20 mins ago. Good luck all!

[gamerish]

Sorry to hear it.

When did you guys apply, if you don't mind my asking?

[s90]

Sorry to hear the bad news, guys

[archipm]

I went complete 12/8.

[darlenealderson]

I applied the day it opened to quiet my parents so, whenever that was? Early October?

[TheKisSquared]

Applied 11/23. Email confirmed complete in 12/4. Ding email today a little after 8. Not a surprise at all, more a relief.

Good luck everyone!

I just got the ding too, shortly after 9pm EST. Went complete 1/20; had no chance in hell to begin with.

[anonymous117]

Also just got dinged. Complete 1/26. Not at all surprised, I never had a chance, so I actually appreciate the quick rejection/prevention of actually thinking I had a chance.

[superhobo]

Dinged as well as of 5 minutes ago. Complete 1/27. Not too worried because I never had much of a shot to begin with.

[Shib26]

Thought for a second I had dodged a bullet but just got the ding as well. Not surprised whatsoever, glad I at least took a shot though. I was complete 1/13.

[Iam3hunna]

Also just got dinged. Good luck to every body going foward. Hope it all works out.

[hicsuntleones]

Ding!
