Yale 2020 early applicants actually decreased this year compared to peer group… look here: http://yaledailynews.com/blog/2015/12/11/early-apps-increase-at-peer-schools/
Greeting from Norwalk, CT everyone! I’ve been following this thread ever since it was created and finally decided to make and account… 4 more days, everyone! Let’s all hang in there even though it seems like the clocks are ticking 100x slower! I-)
@Regulus7 that’s good news for us, though.
Less competition :))
IT’S FRIDAY!!! I’ve made sure every moment of my weekend is filled with fun and social activities, to distract me. Hopefully it will fly by, and then we just have to suffer through Monday and Tuesday. 4 days until we know our fates!
@eeyore2016 Welcome! Only recruited athletes receive likely letters in the early round, but any applicant can receive a likely letter in the regular round.
@mjstewart1224 YES!!! Four more days! I will try to keep myself busy this weekend by studying for my finals. Really cannot wait for Tuesday 
I logged on to the Yale Admitted Students site and it said “This site is for admitted students only.” Is anyone else getting that message?? Do you think it’s a bad sign, or just what it says for everyone?
@kelsey9874 What is the website? Don’t take it as a bad sign. I mean, no one has been officially admitted yet!
Haha, no it just means that you haven’t been admitted yet. If you are, you’ll have access to it.
Where did u see the link to the admitted students website? In applicants portal? How come I can’t see it?
Anybody else can see the admitted students website link on their portal page? Could it be that those admitted could see it?
Is this a joke? Where is it on the portal?
I just searched for it and here is the link https://apps.admissions.yale.edu/portal/admits
It will only work for admitted students however, and currently we are not admitted so makes sense!
**Besides, do you really think that they would make the huge mistake of allowing access to the site for “future admits” ahead of the decisions day? I mean I know we are all probably quite smart, but this is Yale we’re talking about.
Hey anything is possible… I guess I m just nervous.
The admitted students portal has been there for months. We won’t have access unless we are actually admitted, and since we don’t know that yet, it makes sense. I’m sure Yale wouldn’t accidentally reveal decisions in such an obvious way.
Lol we’re all just desperate to know about our decisions
I passed desperate a week ago.
I don’t even see the link to the admitted students portal-is it there for everyone? I’m on mobile BTW.
I’ve read that in the past it’s said that the site “wasn’t open yet” and for me it said it was for admitted students only… I’m just SEARCHING for reasons to be nervous basically
I feel like Charlie Brown with his, “My anxieties have anxieties.”
Especially today, after a friend of mine has been rejected from Columbia. I used to try not to think of this outcome, but now all I can do is think about how she must feel and how I would feel if I faced the same decision on Tuesday X_X
@kelsey9874 Questbridge applicants have already received their decisions, so the site is open for them. It isn’t open for anyone else yet, though, because we don’t have our decisions.
That’s why it says it is “for admitted students only,” and not that it “isn’t open.”
