<p>Just had a really quick question. Does Harvard offer any sort of confirmation to let you know that your application (and it’s supplementary parts) have been received, either through regular mail or e-mail (not including the confirmation for payment of the application fee)? Thanks in advanced. :)</p>
<p>You get a letter with a PIN, which you can then use to check the status of your app. If you don't want to wait for the letter, you can send an email to a certain address (check the Ugrad admissions website) with PIN as the subject and you'll automatically receive your PIN (assuming your app has been recieved+processed).</p>
<p>to be sure, just send an email to <a href="mailto:admpin@fas.harvard.edu">admpin@fas.harvard.edu</a> with the subject PIN and your full name in the body. if you receieve a PIN, that means your apps have been processed.</p>
