Yale Class of 2018 RD Discussion Thread

<p>I will allow myself now to be very sad for a bit.</p>

<p>Hi guys, </p>

<p>I never got an email telling me when to check or what time to check or what link to go to to check, is this bad? I did apply scea and was deferred, but I would still expect them to send me a reminder to check?</p>

<p>rejected!! woo!</p>

<p>are rejections still being sent?</p>

<p>Waitlisted. …At least I’m still in the game?</p>

<p>rejected as well</p>

<p>@LAMuniv @meghamind</p>

<p>Please let me know what all your decisions were!
I was just rejected from Wharton. Ahh well. I figured it was one of the least likely schools I might get into.</p>

<p>As expected, DD rejected. Rejected from Harvard (“the UChicago of the East”) as well. Chicago here she comes!!!</p>

<p>@EtiquetteofWar rejected from Yale, Harvard, Williams. Accepted WPI, RIT, RPI, University of Rochester, BU</p>

<p>ahhhhh</p>

<p>Son rejected- No 1 in class, 2310 SATs first try, no preps or coaching, 8 APs with 5s on 4 of them, not tested the rest yet, national merit finalist, He had no great hook or passion like serving in Africa or writing a symphony at age 12. I blame myself for being lower middle class, no family connections or pull and white. Best of luck to those that did get in!!! </p>

<p>Rejected. Ugh this is getting repetitive. Rejected from Williams yesterday and now 6 ivies today. </p>

<p>REJEEEECTED from Harvard, Yale, Cornell, UCLA, and Northwestern. Waiting on Berkeley (no hope there). Probably gonna go to either UT Austin or UW Madison.</p>

<p>Rejected…their loss. I know I’m going to kill it wherever I go, it will just be somewhere other than Yale.</p>

<p>This is not encouraging…
Isn’t everybody glad they applied though? At least you know you gave it a shot, and can laugh with your kids someday about how you got rejected from all the Ivys.</p>

<p>waitlisted at Brown though- actually very happy with that</p>

<p><a href=“Official Yale Class of 2018 RD Results Thread - Yale University - College Confidential Forums”>Official Yale Class of 2018 RD Results Thread - Yale University - College Confidential Forums; POST YOUR STATS AND DECISION HERE SO THAT I’M NOT AWKWARDLY THE ONLY ONE haha congrats to everyone who got in (although I don’t think I’ve seen any good posts yet?)</p>

<p>@astaff95 well I applied to Duke as well so gonna hear from then at 11pm! But probs will be a rejection at this rate…got offers from Bimingham, UCL, Surrey and Kings to do Liberal Arts & Sciences! How about you?</p>

<p>Is anyone else unable to log into their yale account? It says, “sorry, you entered an invalid eli account id or password” but I’m 110% sure I activated my account.</p>

<p>@chocolatee I royally messed up my Oxford PPE interview, and I’m not Asian, so I got rejected from LSE too (meh) but I’m hoping for an offer from Warwick :slight_smile: I have a thing for campus unis. Though I have to say, I took Oxford worse than Yale. Probably because I’ve been to Ox a million times, knew the city and some ppl who teach there, whereas Yale was just a concept I learnt about on the web…
@colldid Come on, everyone here has wonderful stats and achievements, and we really shouldn’t take it personally. We’ve ALL already achieved something, because had we not, we wouldn’t have applied to Yale in the first place. So keep being white and middle class because college isn’t the end of the world. Frankly speaking, some of the most exciting and worthwhile thngs I’ve done were ‘inspired’ by rejections from the aforementioned British schools, so it’s not the end of the world! Keep your son motivated and eventually he’ll get somewhere. We all will ;)</p>
