As the regular decision deadline (January 1) approaches, the admissions office has been getting a lot of emails from applicants with last minute questions. To help you guys out, I’ve compiled a list of some of this year’s most common and pressing questions (and their answers). If you have any questions that I did not address, send us an email at student.questions@yale.edu

While I can’t exactly parlo Italiano and I’m not a Literature major, I’m a devoted Dante-phile at heart, and I think there’s a little bit of “Divine Comedy” in everything.

On a typical Saturday morning, you can usually find me hiding under layers of blankets in bed. But once or twice a year, I set my alarm for 6:30 AM and jump out of bed for an event that we call MOH.

On October 31st, 2010 I pressed the button. I finally finished my Early Action application to Yale. As I clicked “Submit,” I thought to myself, “Wow. I just applied to college.” After weeks of taking standardized tests and writing essays, the application process was all over. But the wait had just begun.

First and foremost, to all those who have sent in or are about to send in their early applications– congratulations on finishing! I can remember feeling significantly less stressed around November 1, 2009, with the weight of my three early applications no longer bearing down on me (…on another note, has it already been that long since I was a senior?!).

On Tuesday afternoon, December 15, 2009, I took the bus home from school, ate a quick snack, and thought about my homework. Two chapters of reading from D. H. Lawrence’s novel “Sons and Lovers,” a chemistry lab report, a reflection on “Don Quixote” for my Spanish literature course, and a few math problems were on my mind.

A column from the Wall Street Journal recently posted an article about financial aid in college, sharing the advice that some families should resort to not applying for financial aid (taking the burden of extra loans out on themselves) as a way to boost their child's chances of admission. This was kind of a shock to me...

When prospective Yalies choose to matriculate, each is presented with the opportunity to take a Gap Year. Basically, all Yale students have the option of taking a full year off to take advantage of whatever their heart desires. There are plenty of programs and opportunities both in the United States and abroad.
