<p>I personally feel (looking back at old EA threads) that if I don't get accepted EA (small chance but it's possible!), I will 99% get deferred and likely not rejected. That being said, if I get deferred, can I send in new essays? Who would I send them to, and what would the general process be for submitting new essays for deferees?</p>
<p>Thanks!

<p>Yah – you can mail them to the admissions office in late January/early February and they’ll put them into your file. You go up for review in late February or early March if you were deferred early.</p>
<p>^ How do you know this? I always thought the essays submitted were final.</p>
<p>Or I guess change your application in general, would be a better question?</p>
<p>I don’t think you can, but then again, I have no real evidence either way.</p>
<p>Unless someone on CC has actually done this or tried to do this and be successful, I think the answer may have to come from Yale. I would try emailing the student questions people.</p>
<p>No offense, but how are you so confident when EVERYONE’s chances are so low?</p>
<p>Or are you like a double-legacy-athletic-recruit who’s won the an olympiad or something?</p>
<p>quomodo, he’s talking about being deferred, not accepted. so i wouldnt’t say the chances are so low, since the majority of the people not accepted EA are deferred.</p>
<p>I too question that deferred applicants can send in new essays, what is your source? You can definitely send updates or corrections, but I’ve never heard that you can change a part of your application at will once submitted.</p>
<p>@quomodo, unlocked is right. Calm down.</p>
<p>^ The way you worded your OP gives readers the impression that quomodo received. I’m sure it was unintentional though, perhaps a Freudian slip :)?</p>

<p>Yes, OP, who are you to claim that you have a 1% of getting rejected from Yale EA?</p>
<p>I don’t know who I am, but I do. But thanks for your concern. :)</p>
<p>kidfromvirginia, out of curiosity, what new essays would you even want to send if you get deferred and why?</p>
<p>I wrote a new one that I really like and I think it’s stronger than my comapp essay that tells more about something that’s important to me that I wasn’t really able to voice earlier. I guess i’tll be okay either way, though. Hopefully my EC’s speak for themselves, but unlikely. :(</p>
