DISCUSSION THREAD: Yale Class of 2015 SCEA Results

<p>Was fully expecting a deferral but when I actually saw the letter a part of me wanted to cry… congratulations to all those accepted! You are the luckiest people alive tonight</p>

<p>deferred. i actually did cry. and then i got over it.</p>

<p>ya i was so upset at first, but after seeing the ∞ deferrals i feel somewhat better. it’s just annoying to deal with…at least we have another shot</p>

<p>2015: The yet more idiotic sequel to 2014.</p>

<p>No hard feelings on those of you who got in, of course. I don’t dispute the people who got in deserved it for the most part. Just some of the people who didn’t really got ripped off.</p>

<p>Rejected. Lovely. Don’t even know why. Not even a deferral? Maybe I really suck but I am stupid enough to live in this dream. Bottom 28%. Wow. Something’s wrong and I have no idea what went wrong.
Someone often reminds me that I am the most worthless dreg of society and that one day God is going to punish me. I have been trying hard to prove him wrong. Guess what? I can’t even get a deferral. 2300+ SATI + 800*2 SATII + the hardest courseload possible + 4.0 GPA + regional/national awards + self-study APs + well-written essays (according to others) are not enough?! Fine. I know it’s lame but I wish I had a better counselor and teachers who actually know how to write letters.</p>

<p>Wow Silverturtle deferred, makes me feel better about my deferral. How many non-hooked kids in so far?</p>

<p>^^Happysunnyshine: Don’t think like that! You’ll only make it worse. A lot of competetive applicants do get rejected and I would advise you not to take it in a negative way. You should instead work harder at your RD applications. Keep your motivation proving your that “someone” wrong but keep at it please. It’s aweful to see a competetive applicant like you get rejected but just hold on till April when you’ll be seeing a lot of acceptances! Hang in there! :)</p>

<p>I guess I’ll be stalking the old RD results threads now instead of the old SCEA threads.</p>

<p>2/3 kids with 2400s got deferred, but holy **** at Jersey13’s stats, it’s like Christiansoldier V2.</p>

<p>Deferred. Quite calm,though.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Glad I could help.</p>

<p>Crossposted from results thread:</p>

<p>I didn’t apply EA but I was procrastinating studying for finals and counted up the Acceptances/Deferrals/Rejections. I might have double counted some b/c some people posted twice but here’s my tallys so far:</p>

<p>Accepted: 28
Deferred: 56
Rejected: 5</p>

<p>CC acceptance rate: ~30%… not bad</p>

<p>Rejected. Disapointed.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Don’t make the guy feel worse; he’s a human too.</p>

<p>I just want to extend an apology on behalf of Yale (because I have deemed myself worthy of doing so) to all deferrals/rejects. It hurts, I know. But keep your heads up.</p>

<p>I’m excited, actually! Even though I was deferred, I’m applying to a bunch of great schools: Carnegie Mellon University, UChicago, Hamilton College, etc.</p>

<p>Good luck with life, everyone! :D</p>

<p>ACCEPTED!!! So pumped</p>

<p>Looks like I’m applying to 9 schools (2 of which waived my fee, thank goodness). My wallet’s going to hurt. My friend who applied SCEA also got deferred. lol we’re going to have to wait another 3 months together.</p>

<p>I’ve got 11 more schools now, April 1st seems so far away.</p>

<p>Dang, guys, that’s a lot of schools!
Yale was the only Ivy I applied to. If I could change that, I would–I think I’d apply to Brown. But I wouldn’t be able to get my transcript off until next year.
I’m guessing they wouldn’t accept it late, right?</p>

<p>just glad state schools do rolling admissions right now… if I knew I wasn’t at least in there I would be really worried right now. mm deferral so tasty</p>
