Yale Young Global Scholars (YYGS) 2019

Me too… if results came must they send a mail to tell you that something has been updated to your status as they usually did or at anytime we should check to see if something has been updated?

They’ll definitely mail us. The suspense is killing me ):

at what time do you guys think the email is gonna come? suspense is killing me too

I have no idea. They haven’t been mailing me at fixed times. Besides they said that they could let us off the waitlist anywhere from 11 April to dates prior to the sessions. Ugh, guess we’ll never know.

Hi everyone! So first question, has anyone gotten off the waitlisted yet? Second question - does anyone know how many people are waitlisted every year and how many people are accepted offer the waitlisted every year? Just so I know my chances if it really is a luck of the draw thing.

Nope

I have a question tho, cam people who get off the waitlist still receive scholarship for the program??

@Nnig03
none of us knows. but unlikely

  1. is there money left not awarded?
  2. those who withdraw are likely not enough FA, and it would not translate to more FA to people off wait list
  3. accepted student who had FA are not likely to withdraw.

I’ve read at many places that each year they make lots of selections from the waitlist. Yes I think it depends on your luck too. And FA is going to be a problem for people from the waitlist. They might give some FA, i don’t know.

It’s 12th April by EST and I still haven’t come across one waitlisted applicant who got an offer. I thought they were sending offers from 11th onwards. If anyone knows anyone who got an offer, please let me know :neutral:

Wow, now I’m worried. What if this time everyone has decided to attend and there are no empty spots? ?

So after stalking previous year’s YYGS discussions, turns out many applicants got off the waitlist around 14th April. Let’s keep waiting ):

I haven’t gotten an offer. I actually want them to offer my second choice. PLE seems to be really competitive?

Has anyone gotten off the waitlist yet?

@unstablebean Nope, have you ?

@Nnig03 nope. Have been checking their Instagram page as well but no one has said anything about getting off the waitlist yet.

I just called YYGS Officials and they were mentioning me that, there were two waitlist, One is for domestic students and another for international students. If an international student who is a girl indicates that she will not able to attend the program. YYGS will make an offer to a girl who is in the international waitlist. Just like that this happens vice versa. I wish you all the best and keep praying to get off from the waitlist <3

Ah let us just wait and hope

@rohanthomas thank you

@rohanthomas thanks! Good luck to everyone on the waitlist x
