Yale Likely Letters

<p>@musical. Doubt it. YES is in 6 days, and they attendees were asked to make travel arrangements and register and such by February 4th.</p>

<p>Oh well. Would’ve been nice to get one, but I know chances are extremely slim. Guess I’ll just have to wait till March like everyone else!</p>

<p>My friend got a likely phone call today… She’s AA.</p>

<p>Is it true Yale sends out a lot of LLs to really strong science kids?</p>

<p>No. Approx 100 to non athletes, a good no. to science students. But that’s not “a lot” IMHO.</p>

<p>But again, that was last year. Who knows what Yale does this year – the # isn’t fixed.</p>

<p>I received a letter as well. Has anyone been able to register for Bulldog Days? I cannot access the Admitted Students site which is not allowing me to register.</p>

<p>Edit: Before it’s asked, I’m not an athlete. I’m also white.</p>

<p>LA as in Los Angeles or Louisiana??? </p>

<p>I got a missed call from the “Northern Los Angeles Area” today so hopefully it’s not the latter …</p>

<p>Only admitted students can register for Bulldog days - “likely” is not admitted (yet).</p>

<p>so have all LLs probably been sent out by now?</p>

<p>bump -10char</p>

<p>Monepo: no one knows. By agreement, Yale is allowed to send them up until March 15. Whether or not they decide to do so is within the heads of the admissions staff – not anyone here.</p>

<p>But I’ve said it before: anyone pining away for a LL is wasting energy. No one should expect one – they are that rare. If you think otherwise, well…</p>

<p>True. I guess a better way to phrase my question would be “In past years, by when have the final likely letters reached applicants?”</p>

<p>Got an email about Bulldog Days! SO excited. I still cannot believe I got a likely letter!</p>

<p>I was just able to enter the admitted students’ site!!! It’s absolutely amazing.</p>

<p>Just received a likely letter! I’m not a science major… I’m unhooked… white, upper middle class.</p>

<p>@Seriwe: To knock that “Harvard '17” off of your signature!</p>

<p>LOL: congrats!</p>

<p>@T2E64: Haha, yeah… These colleges sure know how to make these decisions as tough as possible…</p>

<p>Seriwe you must be a boss :slight_smile: What are you leaning?</p>

<p>Deregon1594, I don’t know, haha… I was accepted Harvard early action, and I’ve been leaning there, but the likely letter’s beginning to “unlean me” a little bit… Tough decisions!</p>

<p>Have you seen the “Why I chose Yale” video and the Harvard parody? That’s what convinced me that I’d much rather Harvard.</p>
