Has anyone received an invite/rejection email for the Winter 2018 batch yet?
- buellfire 9y agoNot yet - but checking my email obsessively!
- adamn100 9y agoThe wait feels like forever.
- jmdperalta 9y agothe wait....
- adamn100 9y agoyes, it been the worst 5 hours of my life. super restless!
- jmdperalta 9y agoomg I can't take it anymore! Am going crazy! hehe
- jackma2017 9y agoI have woken up in the middle of the night to check out Email. eagerly waiting..!!
- adamn100 9y agoI'm refreshing the page a zillion times.
- jackma2017 9y agoif we have not been selected, then we get rejection mail?
- buellfire 9y agoYes we should all get one either way.
- adamn100 9y agoAre you sure we get a rejection email?
- buellfire 9y agoYep! From the FAQ: "You'll either receive an invitation to interview that contains details of our in-person meeting, or you'll get an email to say that we won't be interviewing you right now. If you aren't invited to interview, we hope that you don't get discouraged and that you continue with your pursuit to build something great."
- adamn100 9y agoThank you.

- adamn100 9y agoIs it 10 pm PT?
- buellfire 9y agoBased on previous applications (just doing a quick search) it looks like it is 10-11pm EST.
- GregoryStorm 9y agoFrom http://www.ycombinator.com/apply/ http://www.ycombinator.com/apply/ 1. If you want to apply, please submit your application online by 8 pm PT on October 3. Groups that submit early have a small advantage because we have more time to read their applications. 2. On October 24, by 10PM, we’ll invite the groups that seem most promising to meet us in Mountain View in early November. We’ll reimburse reasonable travel expenses. Being they said 8pm PT on the previous line item, I would guess that it's 10pm PT for the invitations. So basically, three more long hours to go... Good luck!
- buellfire 9y agoGood catch! Thanks for sharing. Looks like a long night ahead still haha!
- jackma2017 9y agoHow much reimbursement can we get for travel expenses? Per team.
- jmdperalta 9y agothey said they will cover all expenses
- jackma2017 9y agoYa. but I think it's fixed per team. However, I'm not sure!
- GregoryStorm 9y agoAs a bootstrapped company, I would already be thrifty about travel with my own money, but I'd be even more thrifty with somebody else's. So be thoughtful about your spending. Just because you can expense it, don't use it as an opportunity to charter a private jet, pop bottles of champagne and stay at the Four Seasons. :-)
- jackma2017 9y agoThanks, But I'm asking it because we are 3 co-founders in a team. so, as a bootstrapped company we can't afford to move with my 2 co-founders for an interview.
- GregoryStorm 9y agoCheck out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBlN0MadgUo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBlN0MadgUo. They had a team of 4 founders in different parts of the world and they were all encouraged to be there for the meeting.
