Would be chill if they could start rolling out a bunch of rejections but I suppose they're running behind on those as well.............
Happy Monday!

Coming up on a month since I applied and still haven't gone complete. Is this normal?

Strange. I submitted in mid-January. Pretty clear that they don't go complete by date submitted, then.Dovaking wrote:I submitted on the 5th and was complete within 4 days.

So many outreach emails from Yale in the recent days.... Going back and forth if I should apply or if I would be better off burning $100+ and the time it would take to write a 250 essay

If he has as good a chance of getting into Yale as winning a bet on black in Roulette, that's amazing odds dude. Especially compared to Yale's acceptance rate. You know how roulette works?dyebri wrote:Instrumental wrote:Go for it.

Seriously though, I was assuming a person who was entertaining the idea of applying to Yale was doing so because they have at least a somewhat decent app to put forth.

I waited about a month to go complete, although to be fair part of that was the holiday season.fmmf wrote:Yeah, I wasn't expecting to wait a month (or longer) for completion.dyebri wrote:armc808 wrote:I'm looking at 2+ weeks since submitting and I haven't gotten the completion email yet...sigree wrote:I went complete nearly a month after I submitted.

Anyone have thoughts on when we might see rejections in significant quantities? Or is that just as mysterious?
