upbeat portal
#

I know its prolly cope but u might be getting yielded. Like tufts and cwru aren't some insanely high ranked schools. Maybe washu it just came down to a difficult decision

#

bro your school counselors do stuff?!!?

meager bloom
#

like we would go to each other and be like hey girl wanna read this essay

broken python
#

😭

meager bloom
#

do u think this school is cute

#

etc

#

it was so awesome 🥹

#

we keeping in touch foSURE

broken python
#

was "and" any of y'all's main reason for applying to yale

somber talon
#

i have my counselor’s number im gonna miss her so bad

summer halo
#

awww i wish i was close w my counselor

somber talon
meager bloom
summer halo
#

mines a sweetheart but shes really busy and honestly im not the type to go out of my way to forge a bond with a counselor or teacher unless i really love them

meager bloom
#

this is what i did

somber talon
#

I talked abt yale’s environmental programs explicitly and implicitly yea I spoke about the interdisciplinary bit

summer halo
#

oh i was interdisciplinarying my shit up

#

art history and chemistry

somber talon
#

Have u seen Yale’s environmental humanities program

#

Ugh god let me in

summer halo
#

bio and humanities coolest combo

somber talon
#

I’m so thankful that I had an interview bc I learned abt so many interesting opportunities at yale right after submitting

summer halo
#

its fucking insane how rich the opportunities are at yale like i could do anything

#

pls thats so good stop

#

i love my why yale ngl

meager bloom
#

oh this is way better than mine

broken python
#

my whole application was centered around "and." it's why i decided to REA yale and not stanford. cuz my personal statement involved a duality integrated by "and," my field of study is computational biology (CS and Bio), my Yale 400 word essay was my identity as a vietnamese growing up in the US, and I talked about "and" in my why yale essay

my LOCI was centered entirely on "and" as well...

summer halo
#

my best essays were last minute but thats also bc i was using drafts from a bunch of diff essays

broken python
#

bro i did this for WashU and got in 😭 😭

native smelt
#

shrewd remnant
#

broken python
meager bloom
#

im gonna change them for good

native smelt
#

my why yale kinda ahh yall gonna be ok

summer halo
#

my why yale was about this one painting i saw in the gallery that i was obsessed with, and like why it was special to me that it was free to anyone

shrewd remnant
#

bro it was like the most basic ass shi about how at yale the "shared language of iteration and rebuilding" is always spoken

summer halo
#

cuz one of my ecs involves a lot of making art with students

somber talon
#

im gonna GET YOU

meager bloom
#

the 125 is so bad

#

its longer than 100

#

shorter than 150

summer halo
#

i was sooo proud of my essays but now im a little scared

meager bloom
#

writing 100 words for dartmouth about killed me

somber talon
#

idk my why yale was lowk rlly personal

summer halo
shrewd remnant
#

it was uncomfortable as fuck

meager bloom
#

i get why yale does the 125 because they dont need to hear 250 words about why their professors r so good when they know it

summer halo
#

my commonapp was v personal everything else was not

native smelt
#

they trollin

shrewd remnant
#

i really loved my 400 word essay for yale, my essay was very personal but the extended metaphor i employed was very hit or miss, some of my friends got it some of them didn't

native smelt
#

all the profs r too focused on doing research

#

instead of teaching

summer halo
#

my dad really liked my yale essay and i havent shown it to anyone else LMAO

meager bloom
somber talon
#

my only essays that i liked were yale stanford and brown

summer halo
#

you too queen

somber talon
#

cornell was ok but idk

meager bloom
#

u are NOT commonapp.

#

somber talon
#

i think my cornell 550 word essay was rlly trite for my major

summer halo

summer halo
sonic spindle
#

oh i got the easy prompt for ebgineering #SWAGGGGGGG

meager bloom
somber talon
#

My loci was about how much i loved literature and really wanting to do a minor in English

sonic spindle
#

i think engineering had a 300 and a 200 acctually idk

summer halo
#

or acc i think engineering has a crazy long one too

sonic spindle
#

engineering had more questions bt they were all shorter i think

summer halo
#

idr

shrewd remnant
#

it was five days before the deadline i was 4 schools deep and when i saw the word limit i actually just wanted to cry

#

my cornell essays were so fried

meager bloom
#

im glad im not a business major bc if i had to do umich ross 500 word

summer halo
#

its fine if i dont get into my ivies ill just rewatch y tu mama tambien and cry probably

#

meager bloom
shrewd remnant
#

WAIT WHAT

shrewd remnant
#

i could have known this three months ago 💔

meager bloom
#

its in the fine print on their website 😭 its considered a “supplemental material”

shrewd remnant
#

#

i pulled an all nighter for that shi too 😭

somber talon
#

God i hope my letters of recommendation pull

meager bloom
#

ive read all of mine

#

lowk they ate down

somber talon
#

I would die for all of my recommenders

summer halo
#

i read my LORs they were lowkey not ivy quality but whatever

meager bloom
#

its kind of common practice at my school after the teacher submits it they usually will show u it

sonic spindle
#

very scared about what my recs said

somber talon
#

My ap bio teacher ccd me when she sent in her additional letter of rec for cornell but I haven’t opened it

sonic spindle
#

didnt do a single hw in physics until day before due all year 🥹 🥹

#

istg if he mentioned that

summer halo
#

they were like "one of the best in the last few years" when what you want is "best of my career" but im not cracked like that

sonic spindle
#

cuz hes lowk devilish in a way

shrewd remnant
#

i have some good LORs but one of my recommenders who's my math teacher

somber talon
shrewd remnant
#

threatened me three days before the ed application to rescind it cause i was absent and late too much 💀

sonic spindle
#

too busy doomscrlling

sonic spindle
#

omg thats so sweet

#

unless mine lied i just know none of them can say anything like that abt me 😭

summer halo
#

one is enough i think

meager bloom
summer halo
#

omg

#

you guys are so cracked

meager bloom
#

i mean the fact me and my counselor so tight we were doing applications together with each other

somber talon
#

I haven’t read my calc teacher’s but her comments on my report cards all glaze me so hard and I cried

shrewd remnant
# summer halo omfg what

meager bloom
#

didnt u not study

#

then get 100%

#

somber talon
#

Yea it was for my midterm

shrewd remnant
#

midterm is fucking wild that's crazy

summer halo
#

i dont fraternize with teachers like that 💔 im a strong student but im withdrawn in class sometimes

meager bloom
summer halo
#

LORs r not my strong suit but its fine i got other stuff

somber talon
#

My English teacher…idk how hers was

summer halo
#

we will all cook trust

somber talon
#

I was good in her class and improved a lot throughout that course

#

Idk I’m not gonna think about it anymore

NOAH BECK IS IN BAYWATCH REBOOT??

somber talon

Whatever happens happens

meager bloom
#

OMG?

meager bloom
#

ur teachers see it

weak spindle
#

trust its not! one of my letter of recs is literally from an academic teacher that i had only starting senior year (but hes my robo mentor)

summer halo
#

oh my god i forgot my english teacher mentioned my enneagram type in her LOR 😐

meager bloom
#

i have a rec from a 9th grade teacher and a 10th/11th

summer halo
#

your app doesnt have to be perfect on all sides for u to be accepted! i remember reading an interview from someone whose interviewer genuinely hated them who got accepted rd

#

at yale

meager bloom
#

but my 9th teacher i spend entire summers with so its fine

meager bloom
# somber talon THIS WILL BE ME

“This girl is not good for Yale. But may I suggest my daughter instead? She also applied for the internship Anya had. Perfect fit!”

summer halo
#

okay actually my chem teacher's LOR was so sweet i love her so much

weak spindle
#

and my school culture really doesnt promote being super close with ur teachers so rlly both of my rec letters r prob extremely mid and mild compared to other ppls. its def not as impactful as u think it is

meager bloom
#

i think we all need to stop dooming

summer halo

I applied to Yale with fin aid, and I have already sent the tax form through idoc a month ago, but it still shows as unresolved. Does anyone also have the same issue?

native smelt
#

saying unresolved in your fin aid portal? or

#

you can email the fin aid office

native smelt

that’s a common error maybe?
