<p>As a parent, I remember my D waiting to hear if she would get into her dream school 1 year ago today. When she went to the Yale admissions page, she found out she was rejected for the first time in her academic career. She was devastated. She is now completing her first semester at WashU and is having a fantastic experience. I know none of you really want to hear this now (but it may help from a rationalization standpoint later today), but no matter what happens, you will be happy and you will end up in the same place in life. To simply be able to apply to Yale, you are incredibly gifted. For those accepted, congratulations. For those not accepted, after you deal with the “rejection” I can essentially assure you that no matter where you end up next year you will be in a great place and you will be happy. Best of luck!</p>
<p>^ I heard this exact same speech from a teacher at lunch today. Honestly, despite good intentions, this actually makes me feel worse. ^__^</p>
<p>That was certainly not my intent. However, with years and experience (such as from teachers and parents), come lessons which cannot even be taught at Yale. Best of luck to you.</p>
<p>Thanks. :)</p>
<p>Good luck from the MIT board everyone!</p>
<p>you guys are great, just a couple more hours and we’ll finally know… And no matter what, it’s the journey, not the destination, which means the most… We took risks, stood up to the challenge, and exposed our innermost passions on several sheets of electronic paper. The decision was in the hands of several people, who, just like us, put their hearts into their work- how ever it turns out, I’m honored to have had the chance to apply, and to have been a part of cc all these months… Good luck everyone! it’s all out of anyone’s hands now. We can do this.</p>
<p>I’m sitting in my veranda, half braindead, chatting to my friends, awaiting impending doom, finished all my munchies and I’m incredibly hungry. My mum’s begging me to sleep, but I’m still here in the freezing cold getting bitten by mosquitoes. I’m a zombie, but I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep until I’ve gotten the (likely negative T_T) result and have been consoled by my friend and driven to sleep by sheer hunger.
Crazy times.</p>
<p>Yale has driven some to the extremes</p>
<p>RE: mahedonist</p>
<p>I’m applying from Oregon, believe it or not, despite the ultra-Asian name. I am a first generation immigrant though. :)</p>
<p>I’m actually going to be at school when the results come in, so I will have to sneak out of class and go check them at the school library!</p>
<p>haha i was just curious…good luck!I hope your computer sings later=)</p>
<p>slakedlime: so it will be 3:30 AM for you when decisions are posted…get some sleep beforehand!</p>
<p>As a parent who will find out their kid’s decision as well…I can only point you back to this post made by a former wannabe Yalie’s parent: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/825457-yale-people-listen-up.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/yale-university/825457-yale-people-listen-up.html</a></p>
<p>There are nuggets of wisdom buried in there.</p>
<p>Good luck to you all, and may the Bulldog sing for you tonight (or late night, or morning) wherever you are!</p>
