| Yale University | Environmental Management, Masters (F21) | Rejected via Other on 16 Aug 2021 | A | 16 Aug 2021 | I was initially waitlisted. YSE Admissions then sent an email in April with the title "Congratulations on your acceptance...", only to retract it later saying it was a mistake. Sad, but I remained on the waitlist. Despite saying that we would be notified of any updates, I didn't receive any word that the waitlist closed in late July. The school might be top-notch but the admissions team seems rather incompetent. |

| Yale University | East Asian Studies, Masters (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 16 Apr 2021 | A | 18 Apr 2021 | Just as a note for future applicants: I was originally accepted with no funding, but ultimately received the 20k fellowship (notification day is the day I received the upgraded offer). All students accepted to the program are put on a waiting list for funding, and if someone turns down their offer, they give it to the next person on the list. |

| Yale University | Philosophy, PhD (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 13 Apr 2021 | 13 Apr 2021 | Important news for those still waiting to hear on waitlists: in these instances, no news is often good news. 99% of the time, programs will notify you in some way if they do not think they will be able to accept you. If you have not yet been rejected off of the waitlist, there is a chance you may be admitted, probably on the 15th (this applies especially if you have been waitlisted at a ~PGR-25 program and up). The 15th is ALWAYS a sh**show, maybe more so this year due to the pandemic. ALSO NOTE: if you have not contacted the DGS at the program where you have been waitlisted, now is a very good time to do so (be polite, but ask about your chances and when you can expect to hear back). | |
