<p>I also got the email from Patricia Wei, it’s legit. Sent at 9:00am this morning. Doctorx17, are you a rising sophomore or a junior?</p>
<p>Well if that’s the case then I guess that they’re sending out all the acceptances early. In that case, I, like all the other people who didn’t get that message, might as well consider myself rejected. Oh well, it was nice to dream.</p>
<p>For the skeptics:</p>
<p>Congratulations! I am delighted to inform you that your admission to Yale College as a transfer student has been approved for September 2010. Your formal admissions packet will be mailed to you at the end of this week, and it will include the official letter of admission, a reply form, as well as information regarding the number of credits you have been granted. If you applied for financial aid, you will also receive with your admissions packet a letter from the financial aid office. You will have until May 28th to respond to our offer of admission.</p>
<p>I hope to see you on campus this fall.</p>

<p>Whomever else was admitted can confirm: I should assume that all of the e-mails were the same.</p>
<p>@nvilla I am a rising junior.</p>
<p>@tsakashvili I did not request that they release it early. I instead requested extensions from the other schools to which I applied (if necessary), all of which were granted graciously. The folks in admissions have been really helpful, from all schools.</p>
<p>What are your stats? (for those accepted)</p>
<p>Also, was the email sent to all accepted applicants at the same time (9:00 am)???</p>
<p>I received mine at 08:58.</p>
<p>whats your stats? (I am sincerely stunned and heart broken). I am truly devastated.</p>
<p>I don’t feel comfortable being specific, but I was pretty competitive out of high school, which I think helped. I was rejected as a freshman because my interview was horrendous and my essays were not very Yale-focused but my stats were pretty much on par. This time around my why Yale essay was very specific. Also, I think I had great recs (one from a professor I have done 250+ hours of research with).</p>
<p>I applied as a rising junior so high-school probably wasn’t weighted very heavily, though I would have been very competitive had I applied to Yale straight out of high-school (I didn’t). My college GPA was around 3.7 at a very competitive school; it will be about 3.8 after this semester, but they didn’t ask for the mid-term report anyway. Basically, I was very candid, and I tried to articulate what I sought in a college/university as best I could in the essays, and asked the professors with whom I’ve taken the most classes to write recs (I figured it was better to get a professor who has more useful information to write than one who simply held me in high esteem or gave me an ‘A’). My ECs were weak in my perception, though my high-school ECs were strong – I managed to find activities and people that and whom I loved in high-school, though the same was not true at my current college.</p>
<p>a useless rant about love, intellectuals, and college used to occupy this space.</p>
<p>Congrats guys! :)</p>
<p>Uummm…Eli Whitney, IS Yale College.</p>
<p>To all, do you think they sent out all acceptances today?</p>
<p>Did no one receive an email with a rejection?</p>
<p>No acceptance is as good a a rejection <em>shrug</em> oh well.</p>
<p>is not getting email acceptance today really good as a rejection???</p>
<p>Quantum, we might as well think so since Yale is only accepting <30 students. It shouldn’t take them long to notify 30 students that they are accepted. The rest of us will be receiving rejections soon after…</p>
<p>By far, this is the worst feeling in the world… Oh well, I guess it’s their loss. I was going to contribute millions of dollars after I become a multimillionaire.</p>
<p>quantum, though I didn’t even apply to Yale, I can tell you wanted this badly.</p>
<p>Still keep up hope! I’ll throw a prayer your way!</p>
<p>The school I will be graduating from (whatever that might be) will be receiving ton of money from me after I become the next Warren Buffet.</p>
