I believe I recall that during one of the online chats they mentioned that they accept ~10 silver scholars p.a. out of approximately 150 candidates. No word about the number interviewed and admitted though.
From the realm of speculation:
Given that not all top programs have a program like the silver scholars or HBS2+2 program, I can see their yields being higher than for their regular program. I suppose that would immediately translate to less people interviewed and more of those interviewees being accepted.
Then again, this logic may be completely flawed in that they may interview a lot more silver scholars, as those are younger adults and they may want to take a much closer look a maturity and personality.
Who knows....Happy Turkey Day to you all

After I received a mail about the next Open House on Dec 3rd, I tried to secure a week off (I'm an international) to make the trip from my country to New Haven. Now that I finally have secured the time and resource, the registration seems closed!
Do you think it's fine to contact the admissions office to ask for an extended registration? Or should I just wait for the next Open House, (which I don't know if coming up)? As I am applying during the 2nd round, I really wanted to be on campus before submitting my application.

You can call them after the holiday wknd and ask them. I would simply call and see if they can arrange something for you after explaining your special circumstances. Make sure that you mention that you are very interested in YSOM, and you are an international student, etc.
There's no guarantee but if there's space, admissions office usually work something out with individual applicants. Also, don't be too disappointed if they can't work something out for you. The purpose of registration is usually for planning purposes. But they are usually flexible unless it's going to be too difficult for whatever reason they have.
