letmein14 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Just starting to get a topic going for those who have applied to Yale. What subdivision, what news?
Jump Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Cultural, no news, and no interview. Not holding out hope.
bellabean Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 My friend is cultural- had an interview - decisions 2nd week in March.
dtpowis Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Cultural. I was asked on Friday (02/07/14) for an interview on Tuesday (02/11/14). No idea when decisions will be made. daykid 1
Jump Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 My Yale app says it was completed as of today...
letmein14 Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Jump- does it say its been completed on the first page?
Jump Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Yeah, I think that is where. It said incomplete before. I emailed and asked about it a few weeks ago and they said it was complete even though the website did not reflect that.
katekal29 Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 I applied. Haven't heard a word. I did the Anthropology/ FES application.
letmein14 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Posted February 19, 2014 I think Yale will send out all the responses during the first week of March, but if last year is any indicator, some people heard good news from their POI a week before that. I hope we all hear good news from Yale!
fasboo Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Applied to Yale Anthro - sociocultural - havent heard any news and now getting nervous. I had question - is not getting an interview a sign? Are you less likely to get accepted with out an interview? I have just gotten one interview at stanford and then further response - so at least i know they are interested? But no other interviews and thats making me anxious.... good luck everyone
NOWAYNOHOW Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 In the past, only students with interviews have been accepted. Yale generally interviews a large group (20-30) and admits from there. I too did not receive an invite, and counting it as an implied rejection.
letmein14 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 So, who thinks a POI will contact us this week if we've been admitted….
katekal29 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 So, who thinks a POI will contact us this week if we've been admitted…. Haha I'm starting to wonder if they'll ever contact us. There's been silence from them!
letmein14 Posted February 28, 2014 Author Posted February 28, 2014 Two Yale acceptances…anyone wanna claim this and what subfield????? Jump 1
letmein14 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Posted March 2, 2014 should we assume a yale rejection at this point if we haven't heard?
katekal29 Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 I called Yale today. They wouldn't tell me a darn thing other than they are still trying to make decisions and send out admissions. JUST TELL ME I'M REJECTED ALREADY.
letmein14 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Posted March 4, 2014 @katekali29- well, first off I certainly hope you are not rejected. Second, I wonder if the department gives them all files at once or just as each subfield makes a decision…they could very well still be making decisions katekal29 1
fasboo Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Oh god no wonder it takes 80 years for Anthro phd, academics are slow:(
letmein14 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Posted March 4, 2014 Maybe since Yale anthro faculty had a meeting today, we can expect some results in the coming day or two. Any thoughts potential Yalies????
radiomars Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Hey everyone, I'm happy to offer advice as a current bio anthro grad student at Yale. Feel free to message me.
katekal29 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Maybe since Yale anthro faculty had a meeting today, we can expect some results in the coming day or two. Any thoughts potential Yalies???? They told me that decisions were on going... I´ve bee checking the boards like mad, and it doesn't seem like really anyone has heard!! I'm so nervous to hear!!
letmein14 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 katekal29- I feel ya. The silence from my POI is making the wait even harder katekal29 1
letmein14 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 Yale is taking waaaaaaaaay too long! What on earth are they waiting for?????? katekal29 and ritsos 2
