@risrice I find out my decision 30 min after I get out of school and I’m staying after to open my decision there. A ton of my friends and acquaintances in my class are staying with me to watch me open my decision, apparently me applying to Yale is a /really big deal/ considering the last person to apply to any Ivy (Columbia) from my small school of <130 ppl per grade got in and graduated HS in 2012… so I think at least one of my friends is bound to record my reaction of me being accepted/deferred/rejected.
@amieaa even super-smart Ivy bound kids can be k-pop stans, I’m pretty sure there are plenty at Yale or any other ivy 
@risrice I think I’ll film it, but If I don’t get in Ill delete it
@yungturd oh definitely. i think yale has a kpop dance cover group
another thing to consider, bc I just realized this myself, looking at past Yale threads or other ivy league threads of students and their decisions and comparing yourself to them and chancing yourself based on the stats of accepted/deferred/rejected students is COMPLETELY unrealistic (I don’t mean to be blunt), because when you think about it, a forum online does not represent the entire applicant pool of whatever college(s) you’ve applied to, especially when you use the stats from one school to chance yourself for another (for instance I’ve been chancing myself by looking at accepted students from the other ivies) it’s not good and you could create a façade of yourself and be extremely disappointed if you receive the result you were not hoping for. I know this may not seem like such a big deal to some, but just a reminder that your mental health is A LOT more important than if a college will deem you worthy or not to attend. that being said, let’s all pull through these last 22 or so hours stress-free and with a positive outlook! positivity, coupled with your hard-work and determination, will lead you to a bright and successful future, regardless of what college you end up attending
Is it confirmed that Yale decisions are out @ 5 pm EST tomorrow?
@dyosay2 It hasn’t been confirmed 5pm exactly but that’s what it has been in previous years. I know they email you when there’s an update in your admission decision, so at around 4:58 im going to start looking for that. goodluck
oml i’m so nervous. anyone else not able to focus on their work?
is anyone just totally dying from anxiety right now? tomorrow 5pm can’t come soon enough because my anxiety is through the ROOF
Ive been stalking this thread for so long ahhhh Im so nervous and literally can’t focus on anything rn… although I should probably be working on my other apps
i’ve been so anxious that I’ve been checking this thread multiple times a day
I’ve checked my email and my admissions portal probably 40 times today and I’m just making myself feel WORSE
Our school routinely sends 5-8 EA’s to Harvard each year (for more than a decade). Today we sent one. Something startling is happening.
Hopefully Yale isn’t the same…
@yungturd wow props to you!!! best of luck!
@Cherax something similar happened to my school with stanford. I’m very nervous because my school normally sends 4-5 kids to Yale every year but idk how this will go
Oh gosh…
goodnight wveryone im hoping for good news tomorrow but no matter what we’ll be okay
Has anyone else noticed that literally everyone on the planet got denied this year?
hey everyone! I came across this TEDx Talk on youtube and it really helped me calm down and not stress so much about tomorrow, so it may help some of you too!
@yungturd that’s a good point in your long(ish) post on the previous thread. CC attracts a certain demographic that in my opinion is not at all representative of the applicant pool in general, so it’s honestly a waste of time to keep chancing ourselves over the posts in other ivy threads or previous years’ Yale threads. Whatever’s gonna happen, is gonna happen. We couldn’t change or influence the chain of events that was set in motion the minute we pressed that ‘submit’ button. And now, we’re gonna see the results one way or the other, regardless of what any self chancing has told us to expect.
It’s in Yale’s hands now, not ours. We should probably relax and hope for the best but be prepared for the worst and think about other apps. Easier said than done, I know lol.
Also, 5 pm est is like 3:30 am of the next day my time, so I’m gonna be waking up in the middle of the night or staying up and fretting. HELP.
