Official Yale EA 2013 Hopeful Thread

<p>Ah it seems like there’s a different format for the online one and the printable paper one. My teachers’ forms didn’t have the “ID” number on the bottom… What should I do?</p>

<p>Wait - I’m pretty sure you don’t have to do all of the school forms online or offline. My teachers both did online forms and my guidance counselor did it offline</p>

<p>I took my last SATs in June, but forgot to send scores until about twenty minutes ago…</p>

<p>I didn’t bother rushing, because it’d be all weird and in a different format. College Board site says 1-2 weeks for Internet delivery. Do you think I’ll be fine? :)</p>

<p>Yes - they’re processing until mid-November.</p>

<p>I might be okay. Just found this: “The Common App ID will not appear on paper forms retrieved from the “Downloadable Forms” section of the Common App website. However, the schools will still accept the school forms.”</p>

<p>what is this Common App ID you guys are all taking about? do we need to refer to it if we need to contact yale for information and updates?</p>

<p>also, how many do you think will apply to yale this year? since we all come from different places and schools, i guess we have a rough idea…i hail from NYC!</p>

<p>I just sent in my applications to yale, harvard, and princeton!</p>

<p>now all i gotta do is wait!</p>

<p>ps. this thread is CRAZY

<p>^I just read that thread today! It’s actually one of the more informative decision threads on this site. Good luck with your apps!</p>

<p>I just read the newly updated Yale site and it sounds very intimidating.
especially for people like me who has to deal with a bureaucratic government and unorganized teachers and others…</p>

<p>good luck everyone and let’s get through this!</p>

<p>submitted!</p>

<p>When do we get our Eli Whitney accounts to monitor our applications’ progress?</p>

<p>^ For Yale? Or for the College of Cotton Gins?</p>

<p>Lulz, I hope you didn’t write that on your app.</p>

<p>hahahahah</p>

<p>eli is short for elihu yale</p>

<p>Bleh, yeah I meant Eli account. I sort of unconsciously thought of Eli Whitney rather than Elihu Yale</p>

<p>yet to submit…</p>

<p>still need to write some essays…</p>

<p>submitted yesterday! and now for the wait…</p>

<p>I’ve stranglely lost all interest in the admissions process now…lol. maybe its because I’ve had everything done now for about a month. I used to check this forum every day but this is my first time in like a week. </p>

<p>but i know by december 1st ill be here every day haha</p>

<p>Wait - is it ok if I gave my teachers and counselor paper recs even though the rest of my app will be online? I guess my options are do most of it online (as that’s what they prefer) and those on paper or being consistent and doing it all on paper. Which is better?</p>

<p>Gah. Today we got back our quarter grades and I have a C in AP Lit. :frowning: Looks like my chance for Yale’s out the window haha.</p>

<p>Sucks :(</p>
