Yale Supplements

[socalisgood]

<p>Does anyone know when the Yale supplements are supposed to be available?
Apparently, the supp. was released on Sept. 1 last year, but that seems a bit late.</p>

<p>That doesn’t seem all that surprising; many schools upload their supplements in September. I know that a few other schools do that, including Penn and possibly Dartmouth. Veteran CC-ers may corroborate or disagree as they see fit.</p>

<p>Seems about right. </p>

<p>The supplemental essay has been the same for many years, something to the effect of: an open essay on what else that is not on your application should they know about you? </p>

<p>The rest last year was:</p>

<p>

What in particular about Yale has influenced your decision to apply? Please limit your response to the space provided. 500 char</p>

<p>25 words max:

1. What would you do with a free afternoon tomorrow?
2. Recall a compliment you received that you especially value. What was it? From whom did it come?
3. If you could witness one moment in history, what would it be and why?
4. What do you wish you were better at being or doing?
5. If you were choosing students to form a Yale class, what question would you ask here that we have not?

</p>

<p>Why Yale should stay the same, perhaps the short takes will change. I know that 4 years ago they didn’t have any, but I haven’t kept up in the interim.</p>

<p>The short answer prompts do change, so hold off on them until the supplement is released.</p>
