SCEA decisions

<p>ahhhhhhhhhh
okay so I have decided that on Friday I am wearing my trusty Yale shirt to school. I usually only wear it around the house, but this Friday calls for some extreme measures (whatever I can do to bring good luck =) ). oh my gosh so nervous d=</p>

<p>Maybe we need a new thread for SCEA decisions...</p>

<p>haha... good point Deter</p>

<p>ughhhhhh, i made my plans for next friday if i didn't get in. it was really depressing.</p>

<p>yeah my friend is throwing a party on that night....and that's where I'll be whether I get in or not. And if I don't get in, it's going to be the talk of the night most probably. Same goes for if I get in.</p>

<p>I'm hosting a sleepover for my peer support group....</p>

<p>Which is probably good, so they can console me.</p>

<p>fringey, i have friends set up for consoling too :(</p>

<p>There's a thread I made in the new 2012 forum for decisions!</p>

<p>ooooyyyyyy my heart gets more and more fragile as the days inch by... I'll probably just faint, even if I get deferred.</p>

<p>A deferral seems to be what "fits," for me at least. My sister got deferred from her EA college, and my mom mentioned that deferral and THEN acceptance would be the "ideal scenario" since then I could apply to a bunch of other schools and have that opportunity. Of course, I didn't agree with her, but I'm beginning to see that, given the volume of new applicants and my mediocrity in ECs, counterbalanced by the fact that I'm quite strong in the awards/scores/honors section, that is probably what will happen. </p>

<p>Well, that was random. But fringey, the idea of a consolation group sounds great. I should get some friends together for that.</p>

<p>Dchari, if I remember correctly, your chances thread was awesome.</p>

<p>It's not really a consolation group, but rather the Peer Support group from my school of which I am the leader. We chose to have a sleepover and I'm glad it's on that night :-) I love them all dearly.</p>

<p>haha fringey...
i dont know how im gonna react.
but i think i'll probably go out with friends either way. but some of my friends are also applying to yale so idk how well it's going to work if one of us gets in and the others dont, etc?
omg</p>

<p>Whewwww thank goodness none of my good friends are applying... but there's this one girl in my SpanLit class who's gonna smirk up a storm if she gets in and I don't... which is likely.... ugghhhghghgh</p>

<p>omg i did NOT think about the fact that the one person I'd want to be at my consolation sleepover is ALSO APPLYING TO YALE!! BAHHH</p>

<p>every day you people give me new things to fear. we have a love/hate thing going here.</p>

<p>It really stinks that I have my birthday a couple of days after the announcement. I hope I'll be able to celebrate in a somewhat happy mood.</p>

<p>i'm captain of the mock trial team at my school, and we have like.. eight hours of meetings next weekend. and everyone else already got in early somewhere.. except me. it's going to be no fun if i get rejected/deferred.</p>

<p>8 pages with no decision! I find out Saturday morning because of the hour difference. and that morning I have the first phase of the Olympiad. God, how will I be able to concentrate?</p>

<p>As a current freshman, I'd like to wish you all the best of luck! It's a stressful, but uber-exciting time! :)</p>

<p>Couldn't agree with you more, Arwen1.</p>

<p>I have a question. Did anyone else get an email from their Yale on-campus interviewer to check up on things (especially since I interviewed during the summer and haven't had contact since)? Does this have anything to do with admissions decisions?</p>
