Can someone summarize what people are looking for and what it means?

397

Lol, itā€™s hard to summarize, too many astrological predictions going on hereā€¦. :grinning:

398

Lol thatā€™s the vibe Iā€™m gettingā€¦ā€¦ I was hoping there was a quick explanation but my kid didnā€™t even get an interview so I think itā€™s probably not even with playing portal astrology :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

399

I donā€™t have them either, I wait for DS to get back from school and if heā€™s had a good day, he might reluctantly login and let me see the portal.

I actually checked one of her decision on one of the school and she did get in but she was not happy I did it . From then on she has told us she will let us know the decisions when they will come out but is still try.

Thatā€™s good to know. Again, basic common sense is key. So, is slate.org a legitimate site?

Hi! My DD got an interview request today! I guess you are on the same boat or ā€œbubbleā€. Good luck!

Yes, it is. I work at a university and we use Slate to review applications.

I registered slate. It is marked as completed. That might be bad since now it is still a few weeks away from 30th. I donā€™t know when it was marked like that though since I just registered.

409

Completed doesnā€™t mean the admission decision is completedā€¦it means the APPLICANT has completed their application/submitted all materials. When an AO makes a decision, the Slate status says, ā€œDecided.ā€ not completed.

So Yale emailed you about this form? or was it IDOC that emailed you?

Thank you. For us, it says ā€œDecidedā€ for Yale(on slate). Is that because we are ED deferred? I thought ED deferred ones are considered un-decided until a decision has been made in the RD round. Your input is appreciated. Thank you.

Iā€™ll go a step further: ā€œYouā€™ll be rejectedā€ will be correct 95% of the time :^)

I havenā€™t opened any of my portals since setting them up (besides the schools that have already given me decisions). Every day Iā€™m increasingly glad I made that choice.

That seems to be the case, yeah
