“I absolutely adored this insider look, very entertaining and informative. Only had a few complaints: the stuff about ratings feels very secretive, they say they don’t have them but they also do and refuse to get specific about it. Also I wish they would discuss how Yale differs from other...”Read full review »

“These folks are very articulate and the audio is good but the content is drivel. Getting into schools such as these truly is a crapshoot if you’re not a recruited athlete, moneyed legacy, or target demographic. In fact, the tone of this podcast probably gives people false hope. There are far...”Read full review »

“It’s really nice to see how the Yale admissions process tries to make their process more transparent and approachable. Applying to college is incredibly stressful partly because so many schools tell you nothing about what they’re looking for or doing behind the scenes. Hannah and Mark make this...”Read full review »

“Yes, this podcast has its flaws, but I’m giving this 5 stars because it is so, so helpful and honest compared to every thing else in the admissions process. Thank you for actually talking about what makes an applicant stand out and what makes an essay stand out, and for combatting the false...”Read full review »

“We can’t afford expensive admissions counselor so this podcast has been so helpful. I help mentor underserved students so what you share helps so many others.

“There are some interesting discussions, but it’s highly polished and mostly surface level stuff. Yale is not going to reveal how they actually make the sausage.”

“The background music is really out of place and unnecessary. It has a bad quality and cheap feel, with no production value added. It takes listeners’ attention away from the interesting content. So one star off, otherwise a five star podcast.”

“I’m so grateful for this podcast Inside Yale Admissions and appreciate Mark and Hannah advocating for it against doubts from the administration! I love how Mark and Hannah interject empathy by understanding the struggles of writing a college essay and fun by referring to movies!”

“This podcast is about the grandeur and exaltation of Yale and only Yale. Its lessons and conclusions are applicable only to Yale. The stereotypes of Ivy League ego are on the fullest display. After suffering through three episodes, I want nothing more than to spare you this slog through perky...”Read full review »

“This podcast both demystifies the application process and humanises the admissions officers. They keep the tone light and the episodes short so I’m always left wanting a bit more rather than having had too much.
My favourite episode is the essay episode — really made me miss my days of...”Read full review »

“But not in the way you would expect for an “admissions” podcast. First this podcast is really well-produced - it sounds like Radiolab, WNYC podcast with the audio lead ins, good audio, calm NPR-ish voices, music and guests. I also love how they weave in random (but interesting) facts (eg...”Read full review »

In one episode the hosts declare applications aren’t “scored” yet a quick online search reveals articles of admitted students reviewing their Yale admission records (ferpa laws), and guess what? The student files are PACKED with...”Read full review »
