<p>Does anyone know Yale’s yield for this year? Are people still getting calls for the waitlist?</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity… where is everyone planning on going to school on this thread (if the wait list doesn’t work out)?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This is plain silly and arrogant.
Enjoy MIT. It has a very different corporate culture from Y, and the other ivies.
Why are you posting on so many other school boards?
Enjoy your journey.</p>
<p>^I don’t think that’s silly. Yale does have a reputation for being more humanities-oriented, and I would imagine that most very serious math/science types (Intel, Siemen’s winners, etc) would choose M, P, etc over Y, opening up waitlist spots for those with a math or science bent.</p>
<p>^ I don’t think that is silly either. In fact Yale sent out a significant number of likely letters this year specifically to math-science oriented kids. They are trying to grow the program so it definitely makes sense that they would do that.</p>
<p>It’s been a week since they first called our fellow waiting list students. I’m a “science heavy” person, and I’ve not yet received calls yet. I was at ISEF and met a person who is “science heavy” and got a call for admissions though. </p>
<p>Good luck to all! </p>
<p>I really want to be admitted, but how do we know if we’re not admitted?</p>
<p>Hi everyone,
do you know any knews? I’m also on the waitlist. Are they still calling? Is anyone of you international student? Do they call to international students or send an email?</p>
<p>^ I am wondering the exact same thing! I don’t know if I should give up hope or if I should still be waiting for the call.</p>
<p>Hi everyone on CC! I’ve been reading since a long time and you guys have been a great help. I just couldn’t resist but post and tell you guys about myself.</p>
<p>You’d think I am spamming by introducing myself, but, I am a fellow waitlistee at Yale. 
And I am still hopeful.</p>
<p>I am an Afghan currently studying in Dubai, UAE. I used to be a refugee, but things are a bit settled now. 'cause of lack of information and financial help, I wasn’t able to fully understand what AP or IB etc are and what kind of impact they have. Heck, I found out about the SAT a few weeks before the test. After taking these tests, I’ve fully understood the whole concept of how ‘American schooling’ is. FYI, I got 760 and 730 on the Physics and Math I, respectively, a 28 on the ACT, and a 108 on the TOEFL.</p>
<p>What I still didn’t grasp is why I have not been accepted. You see it’s not like I had the easy life, I know I know, everyone has their own story, but don’t I bring unique diversity?</p>
<p>For a guy who studied at an American school only for his last two years in high school. AND, still achieving the prestige of Valedictorian (five weeks ago I didn’t know what that was), and scoring good on his regular classes.</p>
<p>I had a perfect interview too. I am the president of the chess club, captain of the soccer team and a leader of the student council. </p>
<p>Why am I boring you with this? I just want to know from the highly knowledgeable and concerned parents and teens that I have had it all perfect and I still have the hopes, and it is not the end of the world for me either, But why?</p>
<p>Is my background <em>not okay</em>? </p>
<p>For God, for country and for Yale!</p>
<p>Hey everyone! I got off the waitlist less than a couple weeks ago, and I am enrolled for this Fall. I’m from Massachusetts. :)</p>
<p>buuuuuummmmmmmmmmp</p>
<p>^???</p>
<p>Is it time to give up hope on ever getting a call?</p>
<p>I called yesterday. I was told that final decisions were being made as we speak. Decisions will be announced next week and emails sent out-rejections included. I was also told that the yield was very high this year. Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>“final decision” means everyone remained got an rejection? or someone is still possible to get off waitlist?</p>
<p>well that’s dissapointing</p>
<p>Would we get stats and figures? </p>
<p>I still have clinging hope. But I also want to know what exactly I accomplished ( or not).</p>
<p>no idea. If you get a call, you are in…good luck! I have my doubts coz I didn’t get a call yet.</p>
<p>I got a call!!</p>
<p>Good luck everyone! Am sending positive energy to everyone out there!</p>
<p>Don’t stop believing.</p>
<p>Xamarai: would you mind telling us what time zone you are located at and what time you got the call?</p>
<p>I live in Dubai, that’s 4+ </p>
<p>I got it like 20 minutes before my previous post. Which is almost 1900 my time.</p>
<p>The excitement never ends.</p>
