The Magical ( and somewhat Official) Yale RD Countdown Thread

<p>OMG I got in!!!</p>

<p>Rejected, also rejected at Harvard. I feel like a failure, even though I know how competitive it was. :(</p>

<p>ChandlerBing, turn down Cornell and come to Williams with me!</p>

<p>rejected at yale and penn. Meh, their loss. :D</p>

<p>Shoulda seen this coming :(</p>

<p>Does anyone know if they actually send you a hard copy of the rejection letter in the mail as well?</p>

<p>I think there was a link to an e-mail address that said “Click here to have a hard copy of this sent to you”… that’s what it said on mine.</p>

<p>I guess us rejects weren’t worth their paper? Lol. Whatever.</p>

<p>Rejected at Yale. But accepted to Princeton!</p>

<p>Where is Hookem???
So I checked this at school an passed out
I think the blurr of blue was too much!!</p>

<p>I got in guys, and my parents just sent me to dinner.
TELL MY BF THAT WE ARE GONNA MEET</p>

<p>It was real guys, but I think I might just stay here and help 2014</p>

<p><em>sighs</em> Waitlisted at Yale, but accepted at Hahvahd…you guys, I didn’t want to be traitorous but Hahvahd I must go.</p>

<p>^lmaooooooo.</p>

<p>CONGRATS bizzyjudy! I don’t blame you hahaha</p>

<p>bwb, I got rejected everywhere (HYPS). I’m still crying 4 hours later.</p>

<p>^I’m sorry Hookem. Honestly, I expected you to get into at least one of them. :(</p>

<p>Thanks, limetime. Actually, my prestige-whore parents are pushing for Hahvahd. However, Columbia did send a really nice UPS letter today. I felt like I got into Hogwarts; I came home just moments before the bell rang. I opened the door and there was a mysterious piece of parcel. No one was outside. It took me a while to realize that the return address was Columbia…haha…but as soon as I found out, I ripped opened the package. lol.</p>

<p>Don’t worry, hookem168. Were there any other schools you applied? Any school you do decide to go to would be lucky to have someone as engaging and fun as you! You helped make my Yale CC experience a wonderful and memorable one. I barely touched the other forums (i.e. Princeton/Harvard) because of that. :D</p>

<p>Thanks, guys. Now, I have to decide betweeeeen:</p>

<p>-Best Honors Program at UT-Austin (Plan II Liberal Arts)…< 20% acceptance rate. CCers got likelies from Ivies and got rejected from it.</p>

<p>-Davidson. One of the top-ranked LACs. Located in NC.</p>

<p>-Vanderbilt. Top 20 Academically. Bit of a party school. Very Southern.</p>

<p>-Duke. My current top choice (and FinAid seems doable).</p>

<p>Accepted at Dartmouth, Cornell, and Brown
Waitlisted at yale :frowning:
Any tips on getting off the waitlist??</p>

<p>@goldenratiophi: Is Williams where you’ll be going???
It’s down to Cornell vs. Williams for me, it’ll be a tough choice (but I secretly LOVE Williams). But definitely going to Previews at Williams. You better come, too!</p>

<p>@spunaugle: Congrats on those!!! Which college of Cornell did you get into? I’m into Human Ecology (after being deferred, too!)
Getting waitlisted at Yale… WOW… I’m impressed, man. Great job.</p>

<p>bizzyjudy: CONGRATS ON HARVARD! And the Yale waitlist. My Yale and Harvard rejections pale in comparison :P</p>

<p>@hookem: You’ve got to be kidding me… I thought for sure one of HYPS would accept you. B-tards. But, you got into DUKE which is amazing and I congratulate you on that.</p>

<p>Overall, it looks like our Yale loyalty did NOT pay off. At all.</p>

<p>^ Lol, nope, not in the slightest. Oh, well. We’re too cool for them right? :p</p>

<p>@ChandlerBing: I got into CAS at cornell. Pretty exciting! However I do not like the fact they don’t have their fi aid online like everyone else and are making me wait to compare everthing! And haha I was pretty happy with the waitlist. Now I just need to find a way to convince them to take me off it and move me into Yale ;)</p>

<p>@hookem: now who will I have a Texas BarBQ with, but Duke is pretty awesome and so is UT PlanII so you have some tough but very rewarding choices</p>
