Yale SCEA Class of 2021 Discussion Thread

So guys, will we see the decision right away or notification about an update?

@Runner99 it’s 5 est, i was referring to my time zone, my bad

@ambiguouspronoun ahaha no worries

@margaret1332 OMG WE’RE TWINZ

These are gonna be the longest 4 hours ever…

@goldnotes do something fun - I played some video games, got stressed because I sucked but at least it took my mind off this. Now hoping to watch a series, if it’s a good one it will take your conscience away for a while. Better than sitting on collegeconfidential and looking at the clock every minute :wink:

@MeHowPL Yeah, I’ve been trying to stay busy by studying for my exam tomorrow! Not as fun as video games lol. I keep finding myself getting distracted…

The status portal used to display the name of the staff who wrote the recommendation letters from School. The names are not showing up any more. Is that the case with every one?. does this mean anything?

gahhhhhhh so scared

Found this article. Remember it was posted here. Re-post now:

@KBM555866 the names still show up for me. I don’t think it means anything, but it could be a glitch?

@KBM555866 I’m not even able to open the status portal

Hey can I get y’alls advice about something? I just got accepted to present a paper at a prestigious liberal arts college conference this spring–but I didn’t get the acceptance letter until last night. :confused: Should I update my Yale app or is it too late at this point?

@dbowie since decisions come out today, I’d say it’s too late. :frowning: I think it would be worth mentioning if you apply to other schools or get deferred from Yale, though.

I would imagine they’re done reviewing apps…just my two cents

Thanks, y’all!

I am in exactly your position. Good luck today, and best wishes for life in general.

Anyone else deluding themselves about their chances of getting in? On the one hand, I know it’s unlikely, on the other hand, my hope just will not DIE! :stuck_out_tongue: :\ Anyways, good luck to everyone today, may we all have great success in all our endeavors.

@mdchang99 haha yeah! Have you already had yours? I had mine this morning and it felt pretty horrible at the time but I ended up doing fine and it was two hours I didn’t spend thinking about decisions, so I guess it worked out!

@TheWorldSinger Its been like that for me these past few days. I go from feeling like I’m a Shoe in to being 99.9% certain of my rejection. I don’t even want to think about a deferral which to me is even more painful than a rejection.
