Congratulations to everone who is admitted! Being admitted to Yale is the greatest achievement for a lawyer! A real privilege! Honestly, I congratulate you on this!
As for the rest of us, who have applied to Yale and haven't received the phone call, is there anyone out there, who knows how Yale notifies rejected people? Are we supposed to receive a rejection e-mail, a rejection letter by post or even no notification at all?
Yale admissions!!!!

It seems from this board that only international applicants have been notified of admissions so far.
Have any domestic applicants been called yet?

So being admitted to Yale is the greatest achievement a lawyer can expect... OK, I think I've heard it all...
Guys, just for you to know... it is great year, you will have a wonderful time and you will remember it forever. That's for sure as it is also for sure that anybody coming to the US for a studying period will feel the same.
Honestly I never though that being admitted to any school was a GREAT achievement as it is not entirely depending on you... Get good grades wherever you go, that is going to be an achievement. Try to be better every day in your life and you'll be able to pride of yourself... but don't make acceptance to a law school your greatest success because then you will end up being a mediocre.
BTW congratulations on your admission!
Best,
Rej

Congratulations again to all who got admitted. It is a really, really great achievement. I am wondering, whether any Europeans got admitted. I did not see any European mailing in the Discussion Board. Is it possible that they release the decisions for different continents at different times? Perhaps the responsibility has been devided between different people in the administration.

getting into a prestigious school like Yale/Harvard is indeed a big achievement. CONGRATULATIONS to all of you who have been admitted.

Hey am2008, that's what I've noticed as well! No European posted that he/she was admitted to YLS. It's strange. Reading last year's thread on Yale admissions, I saw that during the first 2 days of phone calls only Europeans posted that they've been admitted. And it was impressive that the first 3 to post, were actually Swiss! Then, people from Asia and Latin America started posting en masse.
I guess then that Yale really divides the phone calls between different people in the office. Let's hope that next week Europe will received the phonecalls!

And good luck for all who are waiting for the answers from YLS.

I'd also like to know if any Americans have been admitted to YLS for fall 2008.

I made a call to the admissions office today to find out about their admisions decisions conveyed to international students. they told me to wait for another week and that no decision has been taken so far. I quoted the information given on this thread about the calls received by candidates on March 7th; they categorically told me that no calls have been made till date and that decision is yet to be taken.
it is shocking and surprising. many of our friends have mentioned here about receiving a call from the admissions office.
to avoid any hoax calls, I would request my friends to confirm by making a call to the Yale graduate admissions office at (203) 432-1696
I made the call today i.e. March 10th around 1.00 p.m.

Now this is getting really confusing.... I really can't believe that there is someone, who collected somehow the phone numbers of highty qualified applicants, who have already been admitted to other top Law Schools (AlexGuate to Chicago, Mr. Myzptzik to Michigan), and called them pretending to be a Yale officer. How did someone managed to do this? Where did he find the phone numbers? And why did he or she call only highly qualified applicants who anyway stood high chances of being admitted to Yale?
Another member of the board stated that he also received a financial admissions e-mail from Yale. How could he or she be fooled through e-mail (I mean the yale e-mail address can't be tricked).
I'd say nriattorney that the person you talked to at Yale didn't know about the fact that some phone calls have already been made. Perhaps some (not all) decisions have already been made and the admitted students where notified by phone without the person, to whom you talked to today, knowing about the phonecalls. This is the only plausible exaplanation. The "hoaxing calls" theory or another theory claiming that AlexGuate Mr.Myxptzik, verdad, kobayashi are persons who are playing a joke to the rest of us are just conspiracy theories, which cannot be real.

Well... first of all, congratulations to those admitted to this prestigious program. I am a Mexican, already admitted at Gtown, Cornell and UPenn. However, all of this posts saying (speculating) that the calls have been made according to the applicants' "geographical regions" has concerned me a bit, since it seems that the "Latin American Region" has already been notified. Anyways... congrats, again, and the best of luck for those who wait for the notification.
