Yale 2015 SCEA Hopefuls

<p>From logging in?? It should appear once you’ve logged in…</p>

<p>Accepted! Very surprised but thankful</p>

<p>So they actually let more people in than usual? I thought 750 was the max.</p>

<p>Just a tad, if that’s true.</p>

<p>My best friend got in. :)</p>

<p>Accepted :slight_smile: Good luck to everyone for future results!</p>

<p>Deferred. Thank god I mentally prepared myself for like half an hour before checking my decision. I really didn’t take it as bad as I thought I would. It’s just really upsetting seeing so many deferrals.</p>

<p>Hey guys, I’m a current Yale Freshman and just wanted to say a few things to all of you SCEAers.<br>
First of all, to everyone who got in, congrats!! Yale is truly an amazing school (the best in the world :)), and you should all join the class of 2015. Looking forward to meeting you next year!
For those who were rejected: anyone who even considers applying to Yale is probably an amazing applicant, and Yale rejects thousands of qualified and phenomenal applicants each year. Good luck on the rest of your applications, and I am sure that you will get into an excellent school that will be a great fit for you.
Finally, most importantly for me, to those who were deferred:
First of all, being deferred from Yale is a great honor, and pretty much means that you will get into mostly any school in the world. Yale is still considering you, and you must truly be amazing. Wherever you end up, you will thrive. But also, DON’T GIVE UP HOPE!! I was deferred AND waitlisted last year, and yet somehow managed to make it here. After I had already given up all hope, I got a phone call, and the rest is history. That could be you too - write letters, and trust to hope/luck. You may still get in!</p>

<p>Hey dan92, I just got deferred today, mind if I PM you?</p>

<p>Thanks, dan92.</p>

<p>Thank you for the kind words dan92!</p>

<p>Thanks dan, that made me feel really nice!</p>

<p>It would be so awful to be deferred and then waitlisted…</p>

<p>Alright, well, it looks like my time on this thread is up. I’m no longer a Yale 2015 SCEA hopeful, but I am a Yale 2015 hopeful. Guys, it’s been real.</p>

<p>Well said, sd6.</p>

<p>rejected</p>

<p>29 on act, 3.92 gpa outta 4,0 9/257 class rank
good ecs, good recs, nice interview, decent essays, just wasn’t good enough =/ this has lowered my self esteem so much ughh</p>

<p>Yay Dan92! Thank you.</p>

<p>Deferred with 34 on ACT, class rank of 1/186, 4.0 GPA, national records in athletics, and what I thought were decent recs. I feel totally invalidated.</p>

<p>Deferred. I thought I was mentally prepared and even felt completely fine when I saw the letter, but now I feel pretty down about it.</p>

<p>I feel the same way. Check out the other SCEA thread where there are posts of the stats of deferred and admitted and rejected applicants. You’ll be shocked.</p>

<p>Did you guys already send them your parents’ tax return from last year?</p>
