<p>Hi guys–</p>

<p>I believe this is my first thread on the Yale board, so I’m somewhat nervous. Anyway, there’s a fantastic thread on the MIT board entitled [FAQ</a> on MIT RD decisions](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=38508]FAQ”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=38508) that tries to answer some common questions about Yale RD decision notification. It includes dates/times, email/web/phone info, international decision status, etc. Perhaps someone should create a Yale equivalent?</p>

<p>bump… (190 page views, no takers?)</p>

3

<p>Yeah, go ahead.</p>

4

<p>ok…i have a question…</p>

<p>So what happens on Decision Day?..we log in and then what happens?..do we click around…or does the letter just pop up?</p>

5

<p>

</p>

<p>lol, i meant someone ELSE, not me :-)</p>

6

<p>

</p>

<p>You see a blue screen with a big bulldog in the middle and it sings.</p>

7

<p>the letter shows up and you read if you got in.</p>

8

<p>lol…well that went far…ok someone else kick-start the thread.</p>

9

<p>Is there any trouble logging on? What time do the decisions come online? How sad looking is the rejection im going to get? Is there really a singing bulldog in the acceptance letter?</p>

10

<p>Yeah, I already told you guys that you get a bulldog serenading you.</p>

11

<p>the rejection’s not harsh at all…there’s no trouble logging on. what i liked best about the online decision was that i could tell immediately what my decision was. there was no anxiety involved.</p>

12

<p>What time and day will they put up our decisions?</p>

13

<p>yeah that’s the BIG question everyone wants to know. is it march 31st evening or april 1st at some specified time? how will we ever know? will it be on the website a few days before?</p>

14

<p>i dont know about the rest of the EA acceptees, but i was so surprised by the singing bulldog (and my speakers were up so loud) that i almost **** my pants. needless to say i was confused as whether or not i got in un til i clicked on it and got to the actual letter.</p>

<p>so turn your speakers up :)</p>

15

<p>“so turn your speakers up”</p>

<p>yea, seriously. Mine were down, and I missed the whole singing thing.</p>

16

<p>“yea, seriously. Mine were down, and I missed the whole singing thing.”</p>

<p>Can’t you go back to the page and hear it again? That’d be awesome…id burn it onto a CD…lol :D</p>

17

<p>lol no crying/mocking bulldog if you didn’t get in?
I really thought that was a joke when you first said it sang lol. Wow I guess yale has a good sense of humor.</p>

18

<p>They should have the Duck Hunt dog laughing at you if you are rejected. It’d at least make me smile in my time of dispair.</p>

19

<p>Does anyone regularly log into their Yale account to see if anything pops up?</p>

<p>…i think i should just forget about Yale until March 31.</p>

<p>no, never forget about yale</p>
