from Yale University




Hi LaMai-


The stats for applicants and martics [sic] are not available for me to give out;
however, I can tell you that we have some extremely competitive applicants for admission who have been homeschooled in the past.
Our application process is a wholistic one in that no one thing can
help or harm an applicant's chances of being accepted, and having been homeschooled
certainly should not by itself harm any applicant to the University.

Best

martics [sic] = matriculants, or people who actually enroll/register as students after acceptance.

Maybe that person is trying to emulate Yale grads such as George W. Bush.

I try not to give editorials on the responses, although some have been surprising. To be fair, the bulk of the responses arrive in my e-mail inbox, so spelling errors are to be expected...I think?

I'm stunned that a Yale representative misspelled holistic.
