Yea, hopefully it happens on the 15th.
I'm guessing no dice today. Sigh. I'm just ready for an acceptance this month. 5/5 on waitlists in the past 2 weeks. Anyone got me beat? Didn't think so...
: patonback :
I think I'm pretty close...try 10/10 on waitlists/continued lists for the past 3 months....although I do have acceptances from earlier
Well hey, statistically, you're going to get into at least one of those waitlist schools.
I've gotten three waitlists and one rejection. It's been a rough few weeks. Fortunately the beginning of the cycle was much kinder.
ahhhh!! the wait is killing meeeeee
it's probably tomorrow 😵
it's probably tomorrow 😵
Nah, it's probably the day after.

I'm thinking it's tomorrow too.
Thought I would bump this quote to save you all from some anxiety over the next couple days.
I called last week, too...but they told me something else...they told me calls and emails would go out =/
I read the last couple pgs of Yale threads from 09 and 10, and they said that then also, but they still emailed those accepeted the Thursday prior to mailing of all decisions. The dates were the 11th last year, and 19th in 2009. My guess is this year it will be the same. Emails to those accepted Thursday and all decisions will be mailed Friday.
Solid theory. Time to celebrate Ulcer Thursday!
accepted!
Congrats guys!
No email here, assuming another waitlist.

My email is down. I've had 3 people send me emails and none have come in. What a perfect time for it to go down.
Accepted! Thank God, my waitlist streak has ended 🙂

All of their aid is need based. You can try and negotiate, but IMO it's futile. There will be plenty of people lined up behind you to go and pay full price if you're not willing to do so.
accepted! waitlist streak ended as well.
I remember being told at at least one school that you can always ask for more need based aid if you have good reasons...especially since some need is met by "scholarships" or grants that are funded by the school....not federally.
That being said... I'm only speculating
Also... Accepted!
This was my second interview! Definitely doing Second Look here! Good luck everyone else waiting !! Email dated 1:06PMSame I guess. Seems like one wave.
Accepted!! And Canadian as well!!! This is amazing!!!!
congrats, everyone! no e-mail here...does this mean rejection? 🙁
Congratulations to those of you who were accepted today! I remember the ecstatic feeling well 😀
Yale definitely uses its waitlist, so for those of you feeling disappointed today, keep your chins up! Some of you will be in New Haven come orientation mid-August, and the date of your acceptance won't matter one iota.
And I'd be remiss if I didn't quickly plug Second Look weekend. It's a blast and gives you the opportunity to meet your classmates, find roommates, scope out housing, and sample a few of New Haven's excellent restaurants. Hope to meet some of you then, and continue unabashedly pimping our amazing school 😛

does anyone know how long the wait list is? like for the 2010 stats page we got in our interview folder, is the 264 "accepted" supposed to mean 100 accepted straight up and 164 wait list?

Congrats to all those that got accepted.
Are these both MD-only and MD/PhD acceptances?
No email here.... looks like I'll be waiting for a letter.

Mine was an MD-only acceptance, received 10:06 AM
I'm straight MD.
Congrats everyone on their acceptance!
But don't lose hope...Yale definitely uses their waitlist and it's far far from a death sentence as with some other schools.
