Yale University (2023-2024)

[remote vortex]

i thought it came out after ivy day

[native crystal]

ive asked this question a lot of times but i just want to maximize the amount of data points i have - does anyone know an intl who got a yale interview and got rejected / does anyone know many intls who got a yale interview and they got in

[solar steeple]

the 🙏 symbol indicates that im manifesting

[vale locust]

💀

[remote vortex]

oh ok

[clever nimbus]

he is right tho

college isnt that deep

[solar steeple]

alright lets move on

[remote vortex]

does intl make a diff

[teal tusk]

there are people who get rejected with an interview and people who get rejected without one as well. and on the opposite side there are people who get IN with an interview and people who dont. correlation does not equal causation.

[solar steeple]

we don't have the exact stats of it and since we're all high school seniors we can't tell you much

[teal tusk]

literally

[solar steeple]

but yes this ^

[teal tusk]

we're just hs students an opinion or word or mouth doesnt matter

[native crystal]

does this have anything to do with the uk

[remote vortex]

yea like in all honesty if u dont get in dont think it was cuz of no interview

theres way more reasons

[teal tusk]

literally.

[native crystal]

yeah but you may know people who got interview and got rejected

[topaz creek]

numero uno: i suck

[teal tusk]

its such a holistic process

[topaz creek]

[teal tusk]

a ton of ppl get interviews and dont get in

dont most ppl who get interviews not get in

[clever nimbus]

the thing is for intls to get the interview you have to be good and liked by them

[remote vortex]

i mean yea its a 4% ar

[teal tusk]

yes bruh they give interviews to a LOT of people

[vestal island]

'STOP

[topaz creek]

stawp ples

[teal tusk]

in general the yale acceptance rate is low anyway

[vestal island]

Ya'll r acting like kids

[teal tusk]

stop what hello

[vestal island]

move on

[teal tusk]

no one is arguing

[teal tusk]

bro what..

[remote vortex]

we are having a friendly convo

[native crystal]

im saying the opposite - i got interview and wanna estimte my acceptance rate

[teal tusk]

literally no one is having a problem

[solar steeple]

one thing i've heard for internationals though is that you can get an interview and still not get in but it's very hard to not get an interview and get in. however this is info gleaned from this server who again are a bunch of hs kids so take that with a grain of salt.

[clever nimbus]

its not a matter of fact "holistic review, interviews dont matter", its more of yale didnt give me an interview so I am not being considered

[solar steeple]

still the same as the overall acceptance rate

[teal tusk]

stop thinking about ur chances at getting in and focus on something else. dont even think ab yale or any other school for the next week

[remote vortex]

nobody has these stats

[vestal island]

why is everything we do here is about uni?

like

[teal tusk]

if i sepnt all my time before my yale decision came out thinking about my chances i'd be going crazy

[teal tusk]

it is a college server LMAOOOO

[rose vale]

Uhhh

[remote vortex]

its called applyingtocollege

[solar steeple]

its an applying to college server...

[vestal island]

lets talk about smtn else

[clever nimbus]

want💀 its the truth

[vestal island]

no but still

[teal tusk]

correlation does NOT equal causation holy shit

[solar steeple]

please don't hate on people for worrying about college in a college server

[topaz creek]

when you visit the applyingtocollege server and ppl discuss colleges

[vestal island]

im tired

[remote vortex]

blud there are other servers for other topics

[solar steeple]

also there are channels for other topics

[open perch]

lmfao

[solar steeple]

go to #🚀-general-chat if you dont want college talk

[native crystal]

yeah so the closest i can do is ask people to give their takes on it based on the people they know

[teal tusk]

then go talk somewhere else or speak to people in person lmfao tf

[vestal island]

im just sad

[vale locust]

are u domestic?

[teal tusk]

yup.

[clever nimbus]

Omds, not getting offered an interview as an intl means you have <0.5% chance of getting in

[vestal island]

it has to be about colleges

[open perch]

its Applying to Colleges wdym

[teal tusk]

that just is not true helloooooooo

[solar steeple]

this is not an accurate percentage

[vestal island]

lets talk about ap exams or whatever

like

[solar steeple]

however yale does say that they prioritize interviews for applicants they need more information from

[solar steeple]

#📊-test-discussion

[remote vortex]

what i do know is about 9k people get interviews and 2k accepted, obv this doesnt account for people who get in w/o interview and stuff but prolly 15-20%

[teal tusk]

why r u guys pulling these percentages out of ur ass

[open perch]

go to AP reddit thread lol

[teal tusk]

like literally none of these statistics are true unless the yale admissions office is handing them to u

[solar steeple]

im not hating on you, im just saying don't hate on people for discussing college in a college server lol

[vestal island]

im not hating

literally

[clever nimbus]

they say that, but doesnt mean its true. They prioritize giving interviews to applicants they like

[teal tusk]

U R IN THE YALE THREAD BRUH DONT COME IN HERE IF U DONT WANNA SEE US TALKING ABOUT IT LMAO

[open perch]

lmao

u know what guys its only 9 days ish away anyways so lets just

[teal tusk]

ik kids that got in without an interview so

[open perch]

touch grass

[upbeat loom]

source?

[bronze steeple]

between 0% and 100%

[clever nimbus]

they are part of the small percentage then

[vestal island]

exactly my point

[open perch]

the yale alumni site

[vestal island]

do ur ecs

[solar steeple]

yeah thats what i mean

[teal tusk]

exactly. thank you.

[upbeat loom]

ok ty

[solar steeple]

okay lets all calm down

[native crystal]

that info is so useful i swear

[teal tusk]

ur literally the one who said "can we pls talk about aps"

[solar steeple]

guys

cut it out

[open perch]

lmao

[clever nimbus]

not getting an interview means its very likely they didnt like ur app

[teal tusk]

literally stop trying to think ab ur chances at getting in and do something else with ur time. i didnt even go to chool the day before and the day that yale came out and didnt think ab it at all.

[open perch]

no we dont know what it means

why are u so sure

[remote vortex]

yep calculating ur chances now does nothing

[open perch]

lol

[teal tusk]

literally.

[remote vortex]

ur decision has been made

[native crystal]

i will when i am mentally capable of continuing to prep for imo

[vestal island]

no im tired of ppl being like: why did i not get an interview??

like what

why

[open perch]

yea people are concerned abt their own fates bro

[teal tusk]

idk wtf imo is

[solar steeple]

its a human feeling to be anxious

[remote vortex]

there can be a multitude of reasons

[open perch]

isnt it obvious

[clever nimbus]

cuz there are stats that back it

[upbeat loom]

international math olympiad

[vestal island]

im just worried about ya'll

[topaz creek]

imo 🔥

[solar steeple]

to you it can be like the 10th person asking it but to them its the first time they're asking

[teal tusk]

your future will be fine regardless of your CHANCES at getting into one of a thousand schools in the world

[open perch]

bro why the caps

[vestal island]

YES

[upbeat loom]

it will suck until 5/1 :/

[open perch]

u sound like a parent

[remote vortex]

i feel like yale made so many more people stressed abt the interviews than any other school

[upbeat loom]

yeah

cus yale pre-screen

same with harv to an extent

[remote vortex]

so does duke tho

[teal tusk]

i am your dad

[vestal island]

no they didn't

[upbeat loom]

duke harv yale only ones?

[remote vortex]

i feel like duke doesnt have as much convos abt interviews

[vestal island]

ur the ones who are stressing for no reason

[remote vortex]

i am not

i knew i wasnt getting in

[teal tusk]

harv prescreen is for intl?

[open perch]

bro let ppl stress why u so pressed abt it

[upbeat loom]

domestic too

[clever nimbus]

yh

[remote vortex]

i think so

[open perch]

this server is made for ppl to unite under stress for college apps

[vestal island]

just because its evaluative, doesn't mean its an auto admit

[upbeat loom]

90-95% who get harv had interview

[teal tusk]

idt it matters too much for domestic

[remote vortex]

bro is the stress guardian

[solar steeple]

as we get closer and closer to the decision date, anxiety will rise and tensions will flare. if this seems bothersome to you, please keep your feelings to yourself and do not instigate conflicts with people who are already anxious. if you personally are not anxious because you've gotten good results and are settled, i'd ask you to refrain from giving advice because people perceive it as pretentious and snobby simply because of the fact that you're not going through what they are. unfortunately this is how things are and these are human feelings. let's all respect each other thanks.

[upbeat loom]

@teal tusk

[vestal island]

no yeah i agree

[open perch]

true

[remote vortex]

i didnt know that

i know yale is def lower than that

[upbeat loom]

thats what the kace dude said

[vestal island]

but like pls don't expect to get in, none of us NEED yale

[solar steeple]

also don't trust stats of high school seniors 💀

[vestal island]

theres so many other good schools

[teal tusk]

im not trying to give anybody advice i just dont get why yall r even reading into this that much bc at the end of the day.. its a SCHOOL.. where you have to do WORK like please

[bronze steeple]

wrong channel bro ppl have been asking about interviews daily since november without miss

[solar steeple]

yeah but all of those good schools are hard

[teal tusk]

yes. thank you.

you dont NEED to go to yale.

[vestal island]

exactly

[open perch]

ik

[teal tusk]

you will be fine wherever you go

[open perch]

no problem

[vestal island]

yeah

[teal tusk]

you can live an extremely fun and good and happy life aahaehaehaehagejh

[native crystal]

i dont WANT to go to yale but id rather go to a us college than not

[teal tusk]

ok wherever you go to school you will be fine

[solar steeple]

i know but again when people come here they don't want advice they just want to see others stressing like them too so that they feel less alone
at the end of the day, it's nearly impossible not to stress about something that makes up a major portion of your immediate future

[open perch]

yes but just w your position it seems bad yk

[teal tusk]

bro even when i didnt get in yet i wasnt doing all this

[teal tusk]

what's the point of giving advice when decisions are basically alr made 💀

[upbeat loom]

are you a psychiatry major?

[solar steeple]

thats my point

[solar steeple]

no but once upon a time i wanted to be

[open perch]

not everyone is like u tho

ppl have different reaction and coping mechanisms

[teal tusk]

my point is that most of the ppl here at least have one option of a school to attend so just chill out. u will get the same eduation and learn the same content that will be used at the same jobs in the future and live a good life so who tf cares

[vestal island]

most got into their safeties and targets, i don't see ur point

[teal tusk]

exactly. ppl have other options its not yale or die

[open perch]

i guess down there we all know that but yk ppl can dream

[vestal island]

yeah

[teal tusk]

yeah but its so unhealthy to be asking ppl to "chance you" or reading statistics about interviews like why wouuld u torture urself

[open perch]

u know when we say yale or die we dont literally kill ourselves.. right?

[solar steeple]

you don't know that everyone has at least one option. and you can't deny that everyone wants to get into top schools. sure they'll be okay without it but that doesn't mean they're not allowed to hope for and thus stress about it

[teal tusk]

obviously i know that im just saying you shouldnt be saying any of this at all anyway

honestly if you feel the wtv bad feelings you have get to you i'd personally just log off

[solar steeple]

the yale or die mindset is definitely not healthy but there's no denying the stress associated with college apps

[teal tusk]

community college is literlaly an option for everyone. so yes, everyone has at least ONE option

[open perch]

hey it's up to ppl what they want to say

[topaz creek]

facts

[solar steeple]

you can't control this

[open perch]

freedom of speech.. no?

[vestal island]

huh

[solar steeple]

again people may have options but everyone wants better options

[teal tusk]

im not saying that. say whatever tf yall want its just gonna drive u guys crazy

[clever nimbus]

getting into yale makes alot of stuff easier. Why apply to top schools then if its as simple as "just go to community college".

[open perch]

it seems llike you're the one driven crazy by us

but ok

[teal tusk]

im saying that community college is an option for everyone so everyone techincally has A OPTION.

[vestal island]

actually no, there's no freedom of speech in this server.

read the rules

[solar steeple]

again, if everyone was okay with safeties/targets they wouldn't apply reaches

[upbeat loom]

this guy is a prime example always talking abt yaleover

[teal tusk]

yes u guys are driving me crazy bc yall r being crazy

[topaz creek]

literally animal farm by george orwell

[topaz creek]

yes

[native crystal]

go somewhere else if you're being driven crazy

[vestal island]

i would lol

[native crystal]

leave this server if you can't stand us

[open perch]

yep

[teal tusk]

bro ur the one asking ppl to "chance you" like it is NOT that deep

[vestal island]

in case i made it

[solar steeple]

if the stress and anxiety in this server drives you crazy, please log off or unfollow the thread. don't hate on people for feeling human emotions

[upbeat loom]

fun and vibes

[open perch]

ppl want to be chanced. so what?

[prime sedge]

[topaz creek]

[upbeat loom]

u got yale?

[upbeat loom]

ong bro

[teal tusk]

girl what???? im saying that everyone here has an option at the end of the day(because community colleges are free and a really good, equitable option). yale is obviously something to strive for and its fair to have a dream school and want to end up somewhere thats a "top school" but even if you don't, you'll be okay. just because i'm going to yale doesnt mean that i cant recognize theres a SHIT ton of good schools, literally THOUSANDS OF THEM in our world. you will be okay REGARDLESS Of where u go. if thats yale, great, hope to see u at bulldog days. if not THATS OKAY TOO.

[open perch]

yeah and college is also quite a pivotal decision in life

[solar steeple]

please move on

all of you, move on

[prime sedge]

seems like a big W

so why not

[native crystal]

to complete hpsm which are the other colleges i applied to

[open perch]

lmaoooo

[cosmic geyser]

i didn't apply but i'd assume people would apply because of the good academics/resources (especially for humanities majors), great financial aid, res college system too

[topaz creek]

ok thanos

[solar steeple]

i didnt

[vestal island]

ur lying

sorry

[solar steeple]

i wish i applied :(

[solar steeple]

yeah valid

whats the res college system?

[open perch]

what ivies did u apply to again smrithi

[native crystal]

oh yeah also cuz my friend applied to hypsm last year and so i wanted to do so too

[solar steeple]

brown penn columbia

[open perch]

ah

[violet bridge]

grad school 🤩

[cosmic geyser]

like 10+res colleges with dining halls, late night snack areas, libraries and gyms. fosters a really awesome community among ppl that live in them

[open perch]

is connecticut a safe place

in general

or new haven

[solar steeple]

brown because its like liberal arts woodland gypsies core and thats literally so me, columbia because they have the best graduate journalism program in the country and nyc is goated for journalism careers, penn because their writing programs are unmatched and uh they had fewer essays than yale

[open perch]

i heard mixed reviews

[solar steeple]

oooooooh

[prime sedge]

real reason i applied to yale: i went to new haven for a competition and the pizza was so good

[solar steeple]

lol valid

[vestal island]

is it concerning if someone doesn't know which state a college they applied to is at?

it happens allot in a2c

and i think its concerning

[prime sedge]

well like connecticut/new jersey/rhode island area is basically all the same

[cosmic geyser]

wish i applied but i'd like to think that washu is the closest to yale in many aspects (res colleges, chill atmosphere)

[vestal island]

no lol

[prime sedge]

(this is a joke)

[open perch]

really?

[prime sedge]

no i'm joking

[topaz creek]

rly?

[open perch]

as an intl who dont know shit

[vestal island]

like i met someone brown early admit who didn't know what rhode island is

[open perch]

lmao

[vestal island]

i couldn't believe it

[prime sedge]

tiny ass state

[open perch]

rhode island? like the Hailey bieber brand?

[vestal island]

no like if u got into brown

[open perch]

[vestal island]

you MUST know rhode island

you gotta know the state lmfao

[prime sedge]

but like tbf tell me one meaningful difference between connecticut and new jersey

[cosmic geyser]

they have a res colleges, chill community, great food, strong humanities program (kinda overlooked though), also a great campus

[topaz creek]

cgp gray made a video on rhode island once

[solar steeple]

i thought new hampshire was a state

wait it is

i thought new haven was a state

[cosmic geyser]

dude if i dont get into washu...😭

[teal tusk]

[prime sedge]

that's fun

[topaz creek]

[solar steeple]

[teal tusk]

Tbh i know like 5 states

[solar steeple]

lol why do you wanna be international

[prime sedge]

american citizens living abroad are still counted as domestic

[open perch]

i tried learning the US states

[vestal island]

it sounds cooler

like

[open perch]

i also tried to study the political system

[vestal island]

i got into school X and im an international!

[open perch]

but i dont quite get it yet

[solar steeple]

lol

[vestal island]

a real flex

[solar steeple]

get into school X first

[teal tusk]

easier than the states

[open perch]

no its nOt believe me

[vestal island]

i did

get a likely from duke

[solar steeple]

but yeah this is why i gaslight as an intl cs major

[topaz creek]

yeah cuz its hard af

[cosmic geyser]

wait did you apply?

[vestal island]

ya

[solar steeple]

damn

likely in itself is a flex dw

[solar steeple]

nope

[teal tusk]

GOATED

[vestal island]

way cooler

[cosmic geyser]

ikr

[solar steeple]

bruh

[cosmic geyser]

crazy

[topaz creek]

that dont exist

[open perch]

it's very rare tho

[vestal island]

would i get rescinded if i became international

[open perch]

u may not even get it

[solar steeple]

only in a2c you'll find people unsatisfied with likelies

[teal tusk]

imo their own politicians dont

[vestal island]

i don't think so

[cosmic geyser]

no??

[open perch]

smh

lmaooo

[unborn fractal]

wait so a U.S. citizen living abroad is domestic?

[vestal island]

no no im satisfied

[vestal island]

no

semi international

[prime sedge]

yes

[vestal island]

i think

[prime sedge]

no i think they're treated as domestic

[vestal island]

no semi international

[solar steeple]

yeah lol

why do you think i got so many Ws

[prime sedge]

"The criterion for whether you are a domestic or international student is whether you need a student visa to attend the university. "

if you're a citizen you don't need one

[solar steeple]

i think duke treats them as intl though?

[vestal island]

oh u fall under that category?

[prime sedge]

what is this

[solar steeple]

yeah

[open perch]

citizenship wise, you're american?

[prime sedge]

i've never heard of this

[vestal island]

so it depends on the uni

[open perch]

bcs it's made up

[solar steeple]

yeah

[open perch]

damn

lucky you

[vestal island]

why do they prefer americans though

like i don get it

[solar steeple]

every country prioritizes its own citizens

[open perch]

Bcs it's their own citizens

[vestal island]

but they're private unis

im talking abotu private unis

[open perch]

yeah

[vestal island]

like makes no sense still

[solar steeple]

if you're a parent, wouldn't you prioritize your child first?

^

[vestal island]

maybe if i was a public uni

[solar steeple]

^

[open perch]

private uni still has the obligation from gov

[vestal island]

oh yeah

whats that

[open perch]

smelly h1b

[solar steeple]

internationals are only allowed to work 20 hours a week iirc

[vestal island]

damn each type of visa has its own name

like theres tourism visa and work visa

[open perch]

yeah

student visa too

[solar steeple]

there's also a business visa

[vestal island]

wtf

thats allot lol

so for internationals

do different citizenships have different priorities

like say someone was from the UK and someone was from a country in war

or anything

no no

[open perch]

there are some countries with bigger representations than others

[vestal island]

no like

do they both have same chances

of getting in

[open perch]

no

[vestal island]

into harvard or whatever

[open perch]

bluntly speaking no

[hot pewter]

jus so u know a green card is permanent residency (source: i have a green card)

[vestal island]

can one of them get an advantage

so richer internationals have it easier

yeah i don't wanna be international

[open perch]

bcs the majority of US colleges are need aware towards intls, yes

[vestal island]

anymore

[vestal island]

harvard isn't maybe

i think

not sure

[open perch]

intls who have more money have the privilege to apply to more and be more risky

[vestal island]

i mean

[open perch]

they're need blind for everyone thankfully

[vestal island]

is it actually true

[open perch]

yes

[vestal island]

like are they just saying it

[open perch]

that's not our business

[vestal island]

wow

yeah

[open perch]

if they're being truthful or not

[vestal island]

its none of our business

[open perch]

we know what we're told

[hot pewter]

there are different ways but for the most part green card = permanent residency (even though it needs to be renewed)

[vestal island]

do unis consider that poor students just have less chances

to have some ECs

[open perch]

no

yea

yes

[topaz creek]

defo

[vestal island]

im kinda poor

but idk

[open perch]

but "poor people" can stand out

[vestal island]

my ecs are mid

[open perch]
