Yale Class of 2020 applicants

JEALOUS. It would be amazing to know that this would be over in 24 hours.

I know, it’d be pretty awesome to get this over with tomorrow!

The wait is killing me!

CURRENTLY DYING

Just six more days!!! And the wait will finally be over! (Unless you get deferred…)

Also, do you guys know how important the interview is? Because mine was terrible.

I would rather just be rejected now than deferred.

I’m sure it wasn’t nearly as bad as you think it was, @jk1998 . It’s just a small part of your application!

@jk1998 I know someone who had his Princeton interview for regular decision and he thought it went TERRIBLY. He went on about the things that happened and he really legitimately thought it was terrible (he wasn’t just bullshitting that to make the rest of us feel better; he really felt like it was bad). Guess what? He was accepted! You really never know. You may have thought it was terrible, but your interviewer may have not thought so

Maybe Yale will give us an early Christmas present and release decisions tomorrow that would be swell

@Kasami Imagine? Going into your email to check up on some normal, regular stuff and seeing an email that says “Congratulations, Bulldog!” as the subject title? Oh the dreamssssss

Just the thought that somewhere out there our decisions have already been made and they’re just waiting to be released makes me so INCREDIBLY nervous :-& @-)

I know! @zeedoq On one hand I imagine my decision at least still being debated, which makes me happy. Then I imagine a rejection or deferral just sitting there in a pile, untouched, and with no chance of making it into the accepted pile. That makes me so anxious.

It’s SO FRUSTRATING HOW SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GETTING DECISIONS TOMORROW AND WE STILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY

I KNOW @glasshours A friend of mine already got her QuestBridge Yale acceptance, another friend gets his Harvard decision tomorrow. I’m gonna be waiting and these next days are going to feel so loooooooooooong!!! WE WILL GET THROUGH IT THOUGH

@strideforward Honestly even if I woke up to a rejection email tomorrow I’d still weep tears of relief because I am so tired of just WAITING

Anyone here applying to Yale NUS? Do you know if we get decisions December 10, in the afternoon Singapore time?
If that’s true, I’ll get my first decision tonight! I asked this question in the 2020 NUS thread, but it’s pretty empty at the moment.

TELL ME ABOUT IT. Though I would rather it be an acceptance lol, just like everyone else. But TBH, agreeing with what some of the people on this thread have said, I’d be calmer with a rejection as opposed to a deferral. That’s not to say that I would rather have a rejection, since it doesn’t hurt to have a deferral–at least you have another shot, however slim it may be. Maybe if you win the Nobel prize between now and March 31st you’ll defintely get an acceptance. Who knows? Lol. I’d just be waiting along with every other app I sent in until March 31st. @Kasami

@letmethink I applied to NUS, totally Ina whim. Then after further research I decided I didn’t truly want to study there, so I didn’t submit the extra essay when they sent out that invitation.

I fully expect a rejection tomorrow, and they definitely come out tomorrow, although the email didn’t specify what time. Good luck!

I have no idea, since I didn’t do NUS @letmethink Now that you mentioned threads, it’s worthy noting how hyperactive the Harvard SCEA thread is compared to this one. They have like 230 pages, as opposed to our 48. CRAZY. I wonder if that means that many more applicants applied to Harvard or if they just had a good chemistry over there and everyone talked a LOT.

@strideforward I think a deferral would only get my hopes up too much, and the following how ever many months it’ll take would be sheer agony. There is only one other person from my school applying to Yale that I’m aware of, and every day in class we just look at each other say “6 days” or however many days are left until the 15th. Everyone is so on edge.
