Yale Class of 2018 SCEA Discussion thread

<p>accepted. will post stats later</p>

<p>Rejected. The rejected rate is only 27% and I’m part of it… I don’t have fabulous stats but I believe my essays can earn me at least a deferral. Am I wrong? Should I rewrite everything? Does it mean the topic and content I choose are just wrong?</p>

<p>Rejected. Good luck to all the deferrals, and congrats to all accepted!</p>

<p>Son was accepted. Everyone who didn’t get the news that they had hoped for, hang in there, there are other wonderful schools.</p>

<p>Rejected. So sad since I am pretty confident in my essay. Eventhough my Sat score was only 2090.</p>

<p>I can’t even believe this I literally thought I would be like the last one on this thread to be accepted. I’ll post stats later. I promise you–it truly is a crapshoot. Good luck to all those deferred! and can’t wait to see those accepted at Bulldog Days!</p>

<p>Deferred…</p>

<p>Deferred. Their loss</p>

<p>@jazzed congratulations!
@ixnaybob congratulations to your son!</p>

<p>Deferred. :frowning: But it could’ve been worse…</p>

<p>Rejected. :confused: on to UNC/ vandy now.</p>

<p>Deferred. I don’t think it’s sunk in yet. Plus, my whole schools knows that I’m applying to Yale, and everyone basically told me they were sure I’d get in. Now I have to tell everyone. This will be awkward, especially since one of the teachers who wrote my recs told me she was pretty sure I would be accepted. Just goes to show, you never know…</p>

<p>Deferred. Just what I expected, but it still hurts</p>

<p>Accepted! Beyond happy! Congratulations to all the new bulldogs and to others, don’t lose hope, you are all great!!! And deserve only the best!</p>

<p>But now, did any of those accepted get a financial aid letter?</p>

<p>deferred :frowning: too depressed to post stats</p>

<p>Deferred… I guess I’m gonna start posting on CC now haha I’ve been a lurker. This is such a non-decision its absolutely killing me. I have no idea where else to apply now because I don’t know my chances anywhere -_-</p>

<p>And I guess my username is particularly appropriate now :wink: the struggle continues!</p>

<p>Accepted! Beyond happy! Congratulations to all the new bulldogs and to others, don’t lose hope, you are all great!!! And deserve only the best!</p>

<p>But now, did any of those accepted get a financial aid letter?</p>

<p>Deferred…disappointed, but still grateful to this unique experience Yale has given me. Congrats to those accepted!</p>

<p>Chins up everyone! Dive into the CC Campus Vibe pages for your 2nd, 3rd, 7th choices, etc. Fall in love with 3 new schools! If you were considering a city campus like Yale here is a school you might not have thought of that is surprisingly strong. WUSTL.edu<br>
My son decided to go ED there after visiting–got in and happily pulled his EA apps elsewhere.</p>
