@glassturtle can you update us with how your interview goes?

22

Hey guys does anyone know how to correctly upload the midterm report to Yale?

23

@grundeis: https://admissions.yale.edu/transfer-application-instructions

24

How long did it take for Yale to check off that you guys submitted the mid term report In ur checklist

25

@bros20000 about a week

26

Hey I’m a transfer app too. I called the admissions office a little while ago and they said I could submit a scan of the midterm report via this email: transfer.admissions@yale.edu

I included my Common App ID number and the Yale Applicant Number that they give you in the application status portal. I sent the email last night and I got the box checked off on the portal this morning.

Hope this helps!

@Ethan650 do you think Yale updating your report that fast may mean that they like your application?

28

Haha I hope so but I doubt it. Electronic is just faster than mail.

29

@heroicacuau you can get in as a transfer without an interview!

30

@glassturtle I also received an interview request today morning. Seems like there is no real set time for these interviews.

31

@kas14321 how do u know this? Was there anyone last year who got accepted without an interview

32

With interviews, it can also be that if you don’t get an interview, they know they already want you. It can go both ways.

33

At least that’s what I was told. I also wonder if alumni availability has any weight for transfer students. I couldn’t get interviews in my area for several selective schools.

34

@ARousseau are u sure Bc I feel like if someone does not get an interview then they probably won’t be accepted to Yale? Hopefully I’m wrong lol

35

@bros20000 Nope, it’s possible to get in without an interview. It’s happened before.

36

hey guys my interview is thursday
have any of you already interviewed?

37

I dont think it has anything to do w alumni bc its w admissions officers over skype or the phone
