<p>After sending the common app to harvard, does the adcom send you an ID via email, or send some kind of notification via regular post? Or do they send any notification at all? Thanks=)</p>
<p>hopeful, they send you an ID in the mail so you can access your application status on their website. It takes a couple weeks from when you send in your application.</p>
<p>oh i see... I was just worrying cos some other colleges send the ID directly via email.. anyway thanks!</p>
<p>You can email them and get your ID earlier (since it takes a week or so to come by mail). Instructions are on the web site.</p>
