Is there anyone on Yale waitlist this year?
And did you hear something from Yale?
I wonder if the school already released the waitlist or will release.
The admission office doesn’t respond clearly to students, so please let me know if you are the one on the list.
Thanks.
There’s a thread here http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/discussion/comment/18435756#Comment_18435756
Compared to past years, not many people have posted, however–though the number of waitlisted applicants this year is about similar. Last year, people started hearing back around May 13.
The link above applies to the undergraduate college. It works quite differently for the School of Music.
Grad students were supposed to make their final decision by April 15, so if you haven’t gotten off the waitlist by now, I don’t know what your chances are. My experience & communication with the Yale admissions office has been very positive- I would call and ask and see if the studios have filled up.
My understanding, with most schools of music, is that applicants get off the waitlist on a rolling basis. There isn’t a date when the waitlist “will release.” I was one of those on the waitlist for Yale, and I was lucky to get admitted at the end of March. Sorry if that’s not what you wanted to hear-- good luck!
