@songq123 omg are u srs ??? i had alr gave up hope on me getting an interview invite …
firstly cos my grades were super bad (3 Bs and 1 C and 1 D) and idh have like super outstanding extra activities or anything … im a plain inexperienced person and my english isnt superrrr good so im wuite sure my essays were ?? as well
i rlly wanted to get into yalenus and have been super sad these few weeks becos i saw no possibility of me getting into yalenus 
i hope a miracle happens for me
@songq123 That’s really good news. Hopefully they’ll invite us!
Hi! My friend is still hoping to get an interview but I was just wondering why they are still giving out interviews? Just genuine curiosity because someone above mentioned that there last date for an interview is 20th April…? It would be a little odd if they send out interviews 3 days before the final interview date
@xzooox They might have resources to accommodate shortlisted students up till 20th April and then they might start making decisions.
someone could always call the admissions office to confirm whether they are still giving out interviews … or email them !!!
(i too was hoping for an interview but nope … didnt receive anything)
@pinguuuu I tried to call them. However, nobody answers since it is the National Holiday of the Good Friday in Singapore today. They celebrate it like other Christian countries because Easter is on Sunday. I think they will reach out back to us only on Monday.
@lucas2695 oh ya i completely forgot it is good friday today ??♀ im jus holding on to false hope that they will contact me for interview
Guys just relax… what is to happen, is to happen. Gotta keep a positive mindset
since decisions are only gonna be out 1 May, or at most up to 3 days prior (based on prev years’ dates), they might still be conducting interviews next week, who knows! maybe ~20 Apr was just an estimated date that they had hoped to have finished by, but i guess there’s always possibilities of delays etc! hope you guys receive good news soon, all the best!! 
yeah all the best ppl!
Decisions are gonna come in soon lol I’ve officially started praying everyday now.
Just so u guys know I’m an international student and I applied to 7 US schools (Stanford, Harvard, Dartmouth and other reaches) and all got rejected/waitlisted, and I only got into CUHK in Hong Kong (which is okay I guess
So I’m really freaking out recently!
Good luck y’all
I agree with @nerdydude hahah, even though I know we all feel and handle things differently. I used to panic over this a lot too but I eventually forgot about it…?
Since I don’t think I’ll get the interview invite for this round, I’ve started preparing for Gap Year now, brushing up my portfolio and taking extra exams before I apply again next year.
All the best to everyone, whether you’re still waiting for an interview invite or admissions decision from the school!
Any updates for anyone?
nope. they didnt email me any interview invites unfortunately … what about u @nerdydude ???
btw i emailed yalenus admissions asking if interview invites are still being sent out.
but they only replied back today saying “The reviewing of applications is still ongoing for Round 2 and you will hear from us about your admission decisions by early May 2019
All the best!”
idk if that means they are done with interviews and reviewing the shortlisted applicants or they are still looking through applications and still giving interviews … i think it’s prob the first one tho ??♀️
How are round wait list candidates coping up?
Hi everyone. I too was waitlisted. Awaiting though I know its near impossible as college already selects double the number of candidates
hey guys I’m just curious about the reviewing process
do they decide whether a student is to be admitted first and then review their fin aid file
or do they do it simultaneously?
@pinguuuu hey yeah i finished my interview for both yale and duke 2 -3 weeks back. I m just really paranoid about the admission results and when they will come out
@DaRealYI they do it simultaneously! so they review finaid applications for every shortlisted applicant who applied before the deadline, and then they’ll send out financial aid offers together with acceptance letters!
when are the decisions likely to come out?
