<p>Does yale send Eli pins to confirm that they received your application? Good luck by the way!</p>
<p>jli2006, your comment about “the dumb kids at Explo” is totally biased and unfair. I went to Explo, and there were some exceptionally bright and creative people there. In the future, avoid putting labels on people you know next to nothing about.</p>
<p>So has anyone who mailed the application around Nov 1 actually been contacted …?</p>
<p>Woohoo 1900th post! I don’t really have anything to contribute to this thread, but I thought it’d be cool if my 1900th was here. :)</p>
<p>Good night.</p>
<p>haha, maybe your posting ur 1900th post in the Yale forum is good luck. Stay sane theoneo.</p>
<p>I’ve had both an on-campus interview and an alumni interview. The basically ask the same generic “tell me about yourself” questions. The campus interview was VERY laid-back and casual. The interviews are with Yale seniors, who are all very nice and eager to talk about their experience. The on-campus interviews are probably shorter than the alumni interviews because of time restraints. My on-campus interview was around 25 minutes; my alumni interview was a little more than 45 minutes.</p>
<p>Oh, and I sent my app in online 10/31 and was contacted by phone on the ninth. I got my Eli letter yesterday, too.</p>
<p>wow…this thread is slowly dying…we need to resurrect it!!</p>
<p>viva la “Yale EA people” thread :p</p>
<p>just a little over a month…just a little over a month</p>
<p>(i tried starting up conversations with the scea harvard kids. but they dont want to talk to me 
so im crashing this thread instead)</p>
<p>hey people…I’m EA for Yale as well…I turned in my stuff on Oct. 28 so I guess it’s reasonable if I don’t have a confirmation letter yet, right? oh well…good luck to everybody applying!!! <em>trying not to bite fingernails in anticipation…thinks of chocolate ^_^</em> I’m off to eat some chocolate!</p>
<p>haha, the more nervous i get, the more i visit CC, and specifically, the Yale EA thread, and the less time i spend on my hw…(not good)</p>
<p>I haven’t done any work today. At all.</p>
<p>i know…the period from Nov 1 - Dec 15th is, by far, the worst.</p>
<p>Yeah, but nothing beats the period from Dec 15-April 1 (for the dreaded deferred people)</p>
<p>yea, but at least that period coincides with second semester, when u can hopefully get ur mind off college and stress and chillax. However, during the Nov 1 - Dec 15th, u havta worry AND keep ur w/ ur grades, a rather incompatible combination if u ask me :)</p>
<p>Yeah… only 32 days, 20 hours, and 21 mins.</p>
<p>wow ur crazy, lol</p>
<p>well i downloaded a countdown clock. im actually not as obsessed as most of the kids on the yale board. i just dont have anything better to do.</p>
<p>Ah, the first step to obsession…</p>
<p>397 days, 19 hours, 43 minutes for me…</p>
<p>~30 hours until my SAT score! Hehe I feel like a little kid around you guys. Oldies! What time do SAT scores come out, anyway?</p>
