Wait-list Statistics at Yale?

<p>@anyone - can ANYONE please tell me how accpeted students from the wait list were notified?</p>

<p>a) did they ONLY get a phone call ?</p>

<p>b) did they get (a) AS WELL AS an email ?</p>

<p>c) did they only get an email ?</p>

<p>d) did they get ONLY snail mail ?</p>

<p>nd in ALL above cases, did their online status change?</p>

<p>Someone please answer (accepted students)</p>

<p>Phone call and my status changed to accepted shorty afterwards</p>

<p>@yadart - I first received a phone call, and when I checked online my decision letter was changed and I was given access to the admitted students website. A few hours later I received an email, and then a few days later a package in the mail.</p>

<p>@nanjasore - is the status still the same or it has changed to rejected?.. please reply asap</p>

<p>Online status still says wait listed.</p>

<p>So I just called Yale and they said that the waitlist was not completely closed, which I assume means there’s an extended waitlist. They said that letters have gone out to everyone still on the waitlist letting them know if they’d been released or kept on.</p>

<p>Has anyone gotten an extended waitlist letter?</p>

<p>From what it seems, no one has got one. I haven’t got any letter yet. But that must be because I am in Sri Lanka.</p>

<p>@sunb - are you from the united states?
PLEASE say yes…</p>

<p>@yadart - Seriously, calm down.</p>

<p>@yadart: Canada. Though mail generally gets up here pretty quickly…</p>

<p>sunb35: which part of canada are you from</p>

<p>im from canada and i havent gotten anything so far…</p>

<p>Ontario. You?</p>

<p>I got an email from Yale last week saying that they were still considering me but giving me the option of removing myself from the waitlist. If I wanted to stay on the waitlist, they said to do nothing.</p>

<p>^ we got that mail almost a month ago… how did you get it one week back?</p>

<p>what…i have gotten no such email to date…</p>

<p>Ha? I haven’t got such an e-mail either. 123 Hope and Yadart, did you send any additional material like a wait list letter or something during the last month.</p>

<p>That seems like the extended waitlist letter. I submitted a supplementary letter and I didn’t get any email either.</p>

<p>Hmm, I think that is not the extended wait list letter.</p>

<p>I assume whoever sent a letter/material etc. would not have got that e-mail. If someone sends a letter, he/she is obviously showing interest in getting in, right? I hope Yale would not send such a letter to someone who showed interest. If they do, that means they don’t even look at our stuff! </p>

<p>But if Yadart and Hope 123 have sent letters…</p>

<p>that makes sense ricochet…</p>

<p>Just found out that some people who did send letters got that e-mail too. </p>

<p>Well, I don’t know what Yale will do. Just have to WAIT and see.</p>
