<p>i submitted my application to yale early action last saturday, and still haven't heard back from them either via email or regular mail. about how long do i have to wait before getting confirmation and the password needed to check my application status online?</p>
<p>they take their time. My daughter got an email after a week, saying the PIN would arrive in the mail, and it arrived about 9 days after the email</p>
<p>I submitted my application last Sunday, 10/21, and my guidance counselor sent my additional materials in on Tuesday, 10/23. I just recieved notification from Yale that they have all my materials today, 10/29.</p>
<p>I received my e-mail confirmation from Yale on the 6th. I submitted my Common App on the 25th of October. I haven't received my PIN but I expect it next week.</p>
<p>Submitted mine on the 29th via snail mail....No word yet whatsoever...supposing Yale got it on the 1st, I suppose that's only 8 days, but I'm getting a tad worried.</p>
<p>Everyone gets a PIN eventually, a delay is not a statement about the strength of your application - this part of the process is handled by the office staff, not by admissions officers. </p>
<p>My daughter's PIN arrived 10 days after the email, but people who submitted after she did got theirs quicker, so I think it's just luck of the draw how soon it arrives.</p>
