<p>Yo. I sent my application online through the Common App website. I haven't received any kind of acknowledgement from Yale though, is that normal? They sent my parents an email saying that they received the payment of the application fee, though; they wouldn't forget that. I dunno if I should contact them to make sure they have it all or not.
Anyway, I'm very relieved to have it all out of my hands. I'm going there for an interview in 2 weeks and then I'll just sit and wait for a month and a half.</p>
<p>aghhhhh... I still need to muster up the strength to <em>start</em> the essays.... I just can't do it!! lol</p>
<p>I hope at this time next year, we'll all be settled comfortably in New Haven ;)!!!!</p>
<p>thejuice, my friend applied via commonapp.org a few weeks ago and they contacted him after about a week to let him know they received and processed his application. You might want to email them.</p>
<p>you can do it athlonmj!! it took me forever to start them, but once i did i stopped doing all my other work for two days.. they were so much fun to write and get done with! my teachers, however, did not like my sudden change in priorities... lol. But now that they are done, its just a matter of application details then its done with!
yes, hopefully by this time next year I will be living in New Haven with all of you! yay! the letters are mailed on the 15th this year, correct, as in 2 days after my 18th birthday? as in im going to have an amazing b-day party or a really really sad one. ah.</p>
<p>Athlonmj, I was just looking at your profile... we are applying from kind of the same area :). Have you talked to our admission officer yet? He's a pretty cool guy.</p>
<p>iplayoboe - Don't they also post the decisions online on the 15th?</p>
<p>do they? that would be cool. .. i think</p>
<p>Decisions are posted on April 1st.</p>
<p>EA decisions are Dec 15. Single Choice Early Action... woot!</p>
<p>yaya!</p>
<p>essage is too short</p>
<p>im applying early too... im taking my sats on nov 7... they said that the scores should be in by then... i really hope so... we have fall break starting fri so thats when i want to finish my app... i hate my essays.. they never sound right... i think im obsessive compulsive... so the online commonapp worked fine?... im so anxious... ahhhh....</p>
<p>hey guys I'm Jess13 reincarnated as jb35. I couldn't re-register. But anyway, I realized today how soon November 1 is!! Made me both really happy and scared at once. It means that all this stress will end, but it's also coming up so quickly!! ahhhh ok back to english hw.</p>
<p>it is coming up soooo fast! where did October go??!! ah!</p>
<p>I dunno!!! I'm going crazy!! and, of course, my teachers are giving more work than they did before. I can't wait til second semester.</p>
<p>iplayoboe, thanks for the support :) i still remember ya from that SAT II chat in like june LOL</p>
<p>newt, I think I've emailed him once... he seems nice. it would be awesome to get to know him ;) but i don't really have anything to say to him haha. where are you applying from???</p>
<p>I am on the fifth rewrite of the first essay. I can't get it. this is so sad! I began the activity essay. My teacher says the first one is better now though. I'm moving sooooo slowly! December 15th! 5 days after my 17th birthday, middle of exam week. if I dont get in, that might ruin my exams.. ahhh. :( wishful thinking..</p>
<p>"newt, I think I've emailed him once... he seems nice. it would be awesome to get to know him but i don't really have anything to say to him haha. where are you applying from???"</p>
<p>I'm applying from Wheaton, so not quite north suburbs, more like west.</p>
<p>athlonmj... no problem :) yea, I remember you from June as well. We were in the chat room that was all male and then me... how could I forget. lol. i just got out of doing busy work in my English class by asking to go type my paper in the library. sweet. so now im in the library with my friends writing my paper describing whether, according to the article we read, Ben Franklin could be considered a modern day Democrat or Republican... and posting here. yay. clueless substitutes rock.</p>
<p>I cannot wait until December 15! I just want to know. I can't believe October is almost over; that's crazy. My teachers are cramming so much because the hurricane days made our quarter really messed up. They had to extend the quarter a week but now our second quarter is going to be about 2 months long! Atleast by the time the school insanity is almost over I will have my Yale decision.
On the subject of checking application status, I e-mailed my local rep and asked him and he told me that checking is discouraged because it slows down the application process. He also said that they will contact us if anything is missing.</p>
<p>Hmm I've got a question about score reports...Do we have to wait until we get the scores back from the October tests and then rush them? And I guess we'll have to send our apps in with the score part incomplete?</p>
<p>Iplayoboe, ditto on the "where did October go" thing...</p>
