Yale Class of 2018 RD Discussion Thread

<p>^All Ivies are releasing March 27. Greeeeat. 6 rejections in a row.</p>

<p>Are all of them the 27th?? I read on some that say hard date of April 1st or March 28-30th… I am hoping they are all in one day because I would rather not be depressed day after day for a period…would rather get it all out of the way in one shot.</p>

<p>83 days to go, guys! The time will go by really fast, though, because there is so much to be done. Kind of looking forward to and dreading March 27th. Right now I at least can still hope to be admitted though highly unlikely. :D</p>

<p>Hey guys!</p>

<p>Did any of you get an e-mail from Yale yet, confirming that they have received your common application and writing supplement?</p>

<p>If yes, was it immediately followed by an additional e-mail containing the Eli Account ID and activation PIN? Did any of you get this second e-mail yet?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I applied on the 31st and I got that email yesterday about the confirmation but have yet to receive the Eli ID one. Have you gotten it yet?</p>

<p>Nah I didn’t get the Eli ID one yet. I got the confirmation one quite a few days back, hence I was getting worried.</p>

<p>I got the confirmation one as well but not the Eli ID one.</p>

<p>Ok then I guess Yale is just slacking lol. I’m sure we’ll get it soon enough.</p>

<p>Yeah I guess so. Anyways, thanks a lot guys!</p>

<p>Did anyone notice the crazy amount of qualified applicants being deferred in the SCEA results thread? Makes me fear March 27th…D:</p>

<p>I also haven’t gotten the Eli ID email but I’m assuming it’ll come soon? I hope so. Yale is my dream school- I got into Stanford SCEA but Yale is the only school I would ever consider over it. Luckily, I’ll probably get rejected anyway and not have to make that decision but I guess a girl can dream, right? Best of luck to all of you :)</p>

<p>During the scea round, the eli account info was coming in at different times for everyone. Some people got it a day later, some people got it 2 weeks later. Don’t worry about that now, but if you still don’t get one after 2 weeks, email or call the admissions office.</p>

<p>during scea, I got mine about two weeks after I submitted the app.</p>

<p>Hello. For the update in February for SCEA applicants, would it be in my best interest to send them photos of my entire art portfolio (about 15 pieces)? I know I’ll be sending them updates on recent art contests I’ve heard back from, so would it be a good idea to show them what I’ve been doing for my art? (in case you were wondering, I submitted an art supplement through SlideRoom, which was limited to only 10 pieces)</p>

<p>I just got mine, so no need to worry! :)</p>

<p>Just got my Eli account.</p>

<p>Got access to my eli account too</p>

<p>My bff got into Yale with a 32 on her ACT. It’s not about the scores people, just about the heart. Her essays told more about herself than even I knew. Ik it’s past the deadline but hopefully you communicated your personality and not your love or passion for some stuffy topic you think yale will appreciate.</p>

<p>I got my Eli account too!</p>

<p>I got my Eli account. Hoping for the best!</p>
