Maybe you didnt apply for FA
I did but submitted docs late
Did you get an interview?
Screenshot?
Is this the SID that was talked about extensively in last years thread?
Interview, no FA, half-a-hook. Strong everything, public (magnet) feeder. Definitely NOT a standout standout.
Not for financial aid, itâs under my personal info tab
I see I see
What area are u from?
There are only 24 hours left so weâll know soon enough. But I cant help but feel extremely disappointed already since having a SID in your portal seems to me to indicate that youâve been except, and I dont have one.
To be honest, it probably doesnât mean anything. Even though itâs on the admissions checklist instead of FA, I think itâs the same ID they would have assigned you had they asked for additional documents. And looking at CC from last year and reddit, many people who got the SID got rejected and many got accepted.
Think about this: Do you think Yale AOs would make it as easy as looking for a student ID on your portal to figure out if they got in or not before the official date. That doesnât seem like an oversight they would make.
Iâm not saying this is a sign of anything, just curious if anyone else got it too
I tried private messaging you @Bartholemew . Did you get it? Now Im just wondering how private messaging here works haha
I know youâre not saying that! This is in case anyone is freaking out they donât have it.
I see it now
Oh absolutely, if anyone is worrying Iâd say donât worry, I was in a similar boat with the interview and wondering about it. Worrying or not makes no difference on how youâll feel after the decision, makes you feel worse before and sullys an acceptance
Totally agree - itâs just hard not to worry
Totally true, Iâve found distracting myself usually works if Iâm waiting to hear back on a math final I need or something else. I usually go run a few miles (I am a bad runner so being out of breath distracts me), play a high action videogame that forces your mind to focus or read my favourite book. Or just hop on a call with some friends and do something! Hope today isnât too bad if youâre worrying, Iâm sorry for anyone whoâs worrying about this because I mentioned it
Please donât think too much about the interviews. It is done by a big group of alums (mostly) with little professional training in interviewing people, with different backgrounds, personalities, ages, professions, geographical locations, moods on the day of interview etc. It would be really hard to use or compare these interview reports. In most cases, the interview reports will not change the outcomes. Just my $0.02.
Youâll find out the answer tomorrow. Good luck. In the meantime, no more posts asking for screenshots
