[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're expecting one from Yale, but applied through REA[/quote]

Really? We are? How is your GPA, OP?[/quote]

Don't be obnoxious.  "We the family that has to pay for colleges and has a child really hoping to get into Yale" is not absurd.[/quote]

DP.  To be fair, saying we're "expecting" a likely letter from Yale is pretty darn obnoxious...[/quote]

It’s either a joke or I actually feel sorry for how ignorant this person is.  No one should be expecting a LL on Oct 29. [/quote]

My assumption is that this person is an athlete. Ivies can usually issue Likely Letters Oct. 1. Get your app in before or near that, you get a letter a week or two after. That way, you know you're fine. If there is some final issue then you still have time to get other EA apps in. For athletes, it's the last step - there is the informal read of GPA/test scores in order to get an "offer", then the actual pre-read (admissions review of GPA/test scores) and then, finally, the Likely Letter, which is based on the complete application (essays, LORs, etc.) [/quote]
