The Magical ( and somewhat Official) Yale RD Countdown Thread

<p>@ChandlerBing: Yeah, I can’t come to Previews, but my first choice was Williams anyway even before the Yale Fail, so I’m definitely going to matriculate.</p>

<p>Nice, spunaugle! I got into Human Ecology myself, always liked that school.</p>

<p>However, Williams… is so enticing. I really want to matriculate, but money issues might prevent that. I seriously hope they don’t though.
THAT’S AWESOME goldenratiophi!!! I hope to be able to matriculate with you (though I still do like Cornell, lol)</p>

<p>That’s right, Yale, hookem and I (as well as just about everybody on this thread…) are way too cool for you.</p>

<p>Williams/Cornell>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Yale anyway.</p>

<p>:D</p>

<p>Well technically it’s possible that I could get crappy financial aid from Williams… but it’s not going to happen. Or if it does I’m going to take out a ton of loans. Whatever, I <3 Williams! Mountains > urban gothic.</p>

<p>If I get crappy financial aid from Williams I’ll be heartbroken… I don’t want to put my parents into financial ruin, yet I really love Williams.</p>

<p>Purple Cows>Bulldogs. I mean, come on, bulldogs? What happened to creativity, Yale? Ephs FTW</p>

<p>*I’ve never seen a purple cow.
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you anyhow,
That Williams is way cooler than Yale.</p>

<p>haha YAY for this being turned into a Williams thread again!!! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>You know, guys, if a school doesn’t give you as much finaid as you wanted, you can always politely ask if the financial aid office could match one of your other school’s offers because you really want to go to X school. It might not work but then it usually DOES, esp. with high-end schools. That’s how my brother got more money from MIT (by asking if it could match caltech’s), and that’s what I plan to ask my college when I definitely decide on one. :stuck_out_tongue:
Just try it — nothing to lose. And apparently asking for a match is completely normal as well according to my guidance counselor.</p>

<p>I still love you Yale… even if you waitlist me and make me suffer through more agony, prolly to just end up ultimately rejected still! Hey as a side question, does anyone know if waitlists are need-blind as well?</p>

<p>Pomegranate->Cornell CAS</p>

<p>I got accepted into h!
Waitlisted at p!
Declined at y!</p>

<p>My Williams financial aid packet was very generous. As a matter of fact, all my LAC financial aid packets were extremely generous. So far, they are covering me better than the Ivies.</p>

<p>where’s mal77 ? I’m worried… :(</p>

<p>Well, I got rejected here, so this will in all probability be my last post on the Yale boards.</p>

<p>It’s been a fun past couple of months, and it’s too bad I can’t continue them.</p>

<p>I’ll be hanging out over in Brown land, in case you need me, for some strange reason.</p>

<p>Wow. What a journey this has been.</p>

<p>This is probably my last post here too - Good luck everyone!</p>
