Yale 2016 SCEA Discussion Thread

<p>Oh! Also, in addition to my other question,
about what time do the results come out? Middle of the day Thursday or morning thursday?</p>

<p>Since you’re in Florida, the results will be released 5 pm your time.</p>

<p>^ decisions come out @ 5PM EST.</p>

<p>edit: lol…too slow haha</p>

<p>yesss ermsypermsy! I’ve never wanted to lose money before XD</p>

<p>@Frostbitten plenty of people don’t get interviews. It just depends on how many alumni there are in your area. It won’t hurt you, don’t worry :slight_smile: and decisions come out at 5 PM EST on Thursday. Eeeep!</p>

<p>edit: also too slow. awkwardd</p>

<p>^ Hahaha thank you so much all ^</p>

<p>D: Good luck everyone! I hope next year some of us may be meeting on Yale’s campus? :D?? Hopefully…</p>

<p>Just so people know…
people can already have acceptances into the class of 2016, through the Questbridge Program. I know someone who was already accepted into Yale and Stanford, but chose Yale because it’s giving them money for books. …Oh Yale :)</p>

<p>& Yes… the need to balance out my random spurts of elation because of possible acceptance with hysterical anxious tears = my life</p>

<p>Whoa that’s awesome, calssicgirll! And I feel the exact same way. There’s always that terrible feeling of hope that gets you so excited and then you have to calm yourself down and think, “I shouldn’t be overconfident,” then you get all excited again XD Haha that is me right now.</p>

<p>And I’m sorry but I have another question x_x do you find out if you’re accepted by logging into you Eli account? Or do they email you? Do they send you snail mail at all?</p>

<p>Thanks x_x and sorry!</p>

<p>^ Yeah, I’ve been wondering this, too. Someone mentioned that they clicked an “email” option or something but I don’t remember ever doing anything like that. Eek.</p>

<p>i think it’ll be here:
<a href=“Application Management”>Application Management;

<p>That looks right, thedoc… thanks :D</p>

<p>what is everyone planning on majoring in at yale? We still have 2 days (almost) to dream, so we should make the most of it. I want to double major in English + Fine Arts.</p>

<p>I put Mathematics & Philosophy (one major) on my application, but my interviewer seemed a little weirded out about it. Haha :)</p>

<p>Don’t look at Brown’s ED results… I know you guys will be tempted to now that I said so, but it’s like deferral central. At this point only a miracle can get me in :/</p>

<p>Does anyone know what time SCEA Decisions come out? “Thursday evening” isn’t very helpful. Past results came out at 5 p.m., so I’m thinking they might be coming out at the same time again this year?</p>

<p>It’ll be at 5pm EST haha</p>

<p>Eep! Okay, thanks!</p>

<p>the tension is building guys! i won’t be home until 5:30 on Thursday…that half-hour of knowing i could know is gonna suck!</p>

<p>My teacher called and it turns out they wanted further information about her rec. They were wondering why she gave me a 3 on one thing and she reasoned that not everyone is perfect and while I wasn’t particularly bad, that was probably my weakness if anything. She went on to say good things about me and the admissions officer really understood and liked her honesty. My instructor said she preferred to give me one or two low marks than all fives as all fives is lazy and seems bogus. I’m glad she did that. I’m hoping the call helped solidify my acceptance… :frowning: lol</p>

<p>I applied for Biomed with econ as my second choice. I am nervous my app will come across as premed (which is super competitive everywhere) when really I have 0 interest in becoming a doctor :/</p>

<p>Speaking about econ… I should probably go study for my econ final tomorrow.</p>

<p>Good luck with finals everyone! And Yale haha :)</p>

<p>I’m amazed they look at every part of the application so closely… especially now, when there are only a few days until decisions are released.
It’s oddly comforting… in a way :)</p>
