im in the same boat. 0/6. Parsons and Austin are the only ones that seem to be accepting so far -- theres still hope.

Mar 10, 08 6:40 pm  ·

Mar 10, 08 6:41 pm  ·

Mostly, I am fine with not getting into Yale, ..I knew I was a long shot...but if next week rolls around with no word form sci Arc or UCLA..I am warning you I won't post so much due to being on a "major" bender.

man...you guys are getting a little uppity! Save the fuck yous for some other thread.

It would be a shame if you guys didnt get into any schools after all the posts you've done on this thread! Chill out and see what you get in the coming weeks!

yeah, your are right. I just know YbTH is kidding, thats all....

At the risk of giving a false hope.... Just spoke to a friend who got the thumbs up from yale. He's convinced that not everyone who was accepted was sent an email and that the formal letters will catch everyone who wasn't in close contact w/ the admissions people. I'm hoping that's the case, since i'd like a shiny email too, definately running the risk of an o'fer

Mar 10, 08 7:22 pm  ·

conormac...sorry, but yeah, I am pretty sure that was it...look for waitlisting.

Mar 10, 08 7:22 pm  ·

ff33º

hmmm, my apologies....maybe I was wrong.
,,,still 9% acceptance is harsh

Mar 10, 08 7:23 pm  ·

conormac

close contact ? those people are so busy I can't believe that's really rewarding. To be completely honest I didn't even call. I think that's way more considerate...

Ugh. oh well. We will just wait & see...
