<p>^wait! what do you mean "obviously... duh"?</p>

<p>i mean i know that all decisions come out mid-december, but the exact date is TBA... something that you demonstrated yourself in saying:</p>

Or 12/14 or 12/15 depends on the year....

</p>

<p>thus, my post was valid.... so please save the snappy remarks</p>

62

<p>quick question...
my yale 500 word essay is about an aspect of me that is mentioned in the application but it connects that program to my future goals...</p>

<p>is that bad?? I can't rewrite it now but do you think tha will tick off Yale admissions??</p>

63

<p>roggle- If it is just mentioned in the app, and you're going into more detail in the essay. I think that is fine. One of my essays is about my extracurricular activities, but it goes in depth about it - things they can't learn from the extracurriculars column.</p>

<p>By the way, SCEA decisions come out same week as my birthday =. Hopefully it will be a good one, heh heh.</p>

64

<p>How long has it taken people to get an Eli ID?</p>

65

<p>Bye guys... I'm not going on CC until I have finished my app... procrastination is killing me.</p>

66

<p>Good luck gryffon!</p>

<p>Procrastination is killing me too... but at least I have rough drafts for everything, finally XD</p>

67

<p>Just FYI to everyone, not directing it at anyone specifically: this thread is for positive, warm and fuzzy feel-good posts, not anxious, "Did I get everything in on time and in the right spot and right format?" posts.</p>

<p>I think it would be nice to revive one of the old questions: What do you love about Yale?</p>

68

<p>jesus christ i can't think of anything to write about</p>

69

<p>What do you love about Yale?</p>

<p>The buildings, hands down.</p>

70

<p>Two weeks to go! Good luck, everyone!</p>

71

<p>What in particular about Yale has influenced your decision to apply?</p>

<p>...</p>

<p>I am honest to God going to write that financial aid influenced my decision to apply.</p>

72

<p>I love Yale. Period...</p>

<p>Haha, I don't really think I can say...</p>

<p>It's like trying to tell a girlfriend/boyfriend why you love him/her (I think, since I've never had one before I don't know)...</p>

<p>I LOVE BULLDOGS!</p>

<p>Perhaps that's the reason XD</p>

73

<p>Hey! Another question...
Is Yale's only color True Blue???</p>

74

<p>^^^</p>

<p>Yale</a> Blue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</p>

75

<p>yale is such a reach for me it's not even funny.</p>

76

<p>I'm officially in the RD pool. That's Yale that put me in there by the way...</p>

77

<p>what???? how did Yale defer u already?!!!! :(</p>

78

<p>Got your PM Vicky, and PMed you back.</p>

79

<p>Since I'm getting enough PMs on this, this is the story...</p>

<p>I'm already in Law school (here we go straight to it after high school. I'm in 1st year). For that reason I cannot apply as a transfer since my courses will not transfer. So they let me apply as a freshman but my university transcript will be out in February and they cant make a decision in December without it.</p>

80

<p>haha, i love how everyone got completely overexcited...</p>

<p>so, this thread is withering. i think we need a new official topic...like campus visits!</p>

<p>Who has visited? Who is planning to visit? Could you describe your visit in detail (esp. interviews and overnight stays!!)</p>

<p>I'm visiting nov. 16-18, and I'm doing an interview and an overnight stay as well as all the typical good stuff. I can't wait!!!</p>
