<p>I activated my account as soon as I got the blue letter in the mail. It still works for me; I just logged on.</p>
<p>Woohoo! Everyone who's having trouble -- there's hope. Mine finalllly worked.</p>
<p>I've changed my password twice, and it still won't work...</p>
<p>howwww? what did you do lindsey?</p>
<p>mines not working. it doesnt recognize my new password that i set up when i first got the letter. should i try the pin number they gave me again?¿</p>
<p>I just kept trying and trying and trying and trying and trying. Eventually it will work.</p>
<p>haha it's so cute how much you all flip about this. nothing's going to happen for another 8 days ;)</p>
<p>yeah lindsey's method worked. just keep trying trying trying</p>
<p>yay for workingness</p>
<p>can someone please tell me where do I get my pin??? this is so worrying....cos I didn't receive the so-called postcard I was supposed to get...so now I'm like so lost....did the PIN come with the postcard???</p>
<p>The PIN came on a letter printed on blue paper. The postcard had nothing to do with it. Does that help?</p>
<p>I didn't receive the blue letter...cos as I heard from others, they said that people who applied by paper would receive the letter, while those who applied online would receive an email. Well, I got the email, but there was no PIN number given.
linseylujh, can i just ask, what did the letter say besides giving you the PIN number?is it something about them receiving your application?thanks alot...</p>
<p>Those who applied by paper get both an email and a letter. Those who applied online only got the letter.</p>
<p>The letter says:
Your application for admission to Yale has been received and your admissions file is now open. We will notify you if any necessary documents are missing.</p>
<p>Then, it gives you an admissions code to write on any future admissions correspondence. </p>
<p>Next, it talks about Local Alumni Interviews and basically just gives the typical speech. It gives you the name of your local ASC director, but tells you not to contact them. </p>
<p>Finally, it talks about Online Decision Notification. It says we'll find out Dec. 16 and it gives the address for activating, a PIN, and an account ID.</p>
<p>lindsey....thanks alot...now I feel really panicky, what could have possibly gone wrong??! Could it be the postman??Argh! Going crazy now...anyway, thanks...</p>
<p>No problem It might not hurt to give Yale a call tomorrow. You can find the number on their website.</p>
