I don't know about YSOM but once I emailed some other admissions office and then followed up with a phone call the next day and the lady said..."Yes, I got your email". I was so :shock: and :? , so I asked her how she knew it was me and she told me that my name was displayed in caller ID.

Folks, they are watching our every move!!

Random question... how long did it take people with invites to get an invite after all their checks went green? My status checklist just went all green 1 week ago. I was just curious how quickly they process them.

Okay. Slowly getting mad.

All check marks within 2 days of the submission 10/7/10.

No words from the adcom.

But I won't call. The wrath of Chostein may strike. :evil:

nisi85, did you hear back from Yale about the diversity weekend waitlist? Today was when they would let us know (I called), and I didnt hear anything.

yes, I got an invite!! But i got the mail at 11am this morning. :o :-D

Very thrilled and happy!! :o :o

I am going, but they are out of lodgings :roll: I will have to look out for a room myself.

Did you hear from them?? :?:

Congrats on your admit! Let us know how it goes!

Yup, denied from wait list. Not sure how to interpret it really. I should probably still attend an admissions event, but I'm beginning to think this is a sign to seriously rethink my application to Yale.

I think it could be because of the diversity issue. They want more and more diverse people to attend the event. I dont think it has anything to do with your candidacy. i will let you know how it goes.

Do not loose heart. You should still apply.

Do invitations to these diversity events mean increased chances of getting admission?

Such nail-biting, patience-testing Friday.

Judging by the lack of activity, I believe Yale adcom went to the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear? :)

Friday is when they gather around to evaluate applications and possibly making decisions. They must be busy with the applicants who interviewed in the past few weeks.
