A countdown thread to end ALL Countdown Threads!

<p>international acceptance packages are mailed via FedEx. I don’t know what’s the deal with rejections though. By the way, why don’t you just log in to see your decision?</p>

<p>Oh I will! But it’ll be around midnight over here anyway when it’s posted so I was wondering if I check on Friday, will there also be a letter…</p>

<p>@darkblademaster: Yeah, I know. I hate that they make us wait, make us wait even more, and then reject us.</p>

<p>What’s the chances of a waitlist?</p>

<p>@belle_10: Oh, you know what would be even worse? Being waitlisted, then not coming off of the waitlist. (Working in admissions would a great job for a sadist, seriously.) ;)</p>

<p>Well I read this article from Harvard Crimson and basically rah year Harvard has a ‘z list’ where they put legacy kids at the top of their waitlist and offer some of ten admission if they agree to take a gap year. That means that rah year around 33 places have already been taken at Harvard! pretty are Yale has a similar system. So if I’m waitlisted, I’m not gonna keep my hopes up :(</p>

<p>By the way, T minus 26 hours!</p>

<p>Sorry made a typo: I meant ‘every’ not ‘rah’ (don’t know how that happened…)</p>

<p>I’ll die if I get waitlisted. deferral and then waitlist, in addition to be waitlisted from several other schools already?? ughh.</p>

<p>Anyone else have their hopes up even though it will be even more painful when the disappointment comes crashing down tomorrow?</p>

<p>Question: Does Yale have a specific time for decision release? </p>

<p>Since most of the Ivies are 5:00 tomorrow I figured that might go for Yale too, but I wouldn’t put it past them to be mean and just say “evening” and leave it at that…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Unless Yale has changed its policy, that won’t happen. Deferred SCEA applicants get a straight up or down vote in the RD round. No waitlisting.</p>

<p>

This probably confirms the fact that I won’t get in. Hm.</p>

<p>^I’m scared :(</p>

<p>

Me too…</p>

<p>I just realized…by this time tomorrow I’ll probably be uber depressed and weeping in a corner somewhere.
D:</p>

<p>Is it 5:00 ET?</p>

<p>I’m going to follow Handala92’s example and believe in myself. :slight_smile:
But I’m prepared for the worst as well.</p>

<p>i have to wait until 9pm my time, so very annoying. At this point in the game i have no idea whats going to happen, but if i dont get accepted i’ll be fine because i got into other schools that i’m crazy about. Good luck everyone :slight_smile: No matter what happens you all will be starting a new chapter of your lives and do amazing things!</p>

<p>^Aw, you’re so sweet.
Yep, good luck to everyone!!!</p>

<p>I WANT them to do waitlisting. Otherwise I will just be rejected outright.</p>

<p>*for EA Deferrals</p>

<p>What time are decisions going to be posted?</p>
