Admissions, Dating, and What Yale Is Actually Like | David Sun, Yale '25

We've helped hundreds of seniors get more than 1000+ acceptances to the Ivy League. Want to work with us? Visit: https://elevated.school/getstarted?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=longform&utm_campaign=victor's-pod&utm_content=how-i-got-into-yale-%7C-victor-herrera%2C-economics-%26-music-yale-'27

David ('25) spent four years at Yale studying Ethics, Politics, and Economics — a major he chose Yale specifically for. In this ElevatEd interview, the classical pianist from rural Utah opens up about flying to China during midterm season (and winning gold), performing concerts across Europe while keeping up with classes, and why the relationships he built at Yale mattered more than anything in the classroom. David also gets real about Yale's dating culture — from Marriage Pact and Date Drop to why a campus obsessed with "preserving optionality" might be the hardest place to find commitment. Plus, he breaks down what he thinks most applicants get wrong about Yale admissions, why cultural fit matters more than stats, and the biggest myth he wants to debunk before he graduates. Whether you're researching schools or deep in the application process, this is one of the most strategic and honest conversations we've had. A huge thank you to David!!
