MODERATOR’S NOTE:

See my earlier post.

Is it the same for everyone how Vid Portfolio and Graded Paper portions disappeared?

Something changed, not quite sure what however.

yup my graded paper thing is gone.

My graded paper is gone as well.

My graded paper is gone, but my supplement is still there?

and good luck everyone! :slight_smile: these past few months have been stressful, but I’m sure it’ll all be worth it!

Guys - I just realized that tomorrow, December 13, is the same day as the birthday of the Yongzheng Emperor in 1722.

It also happens to be the day that Dartmouth was founded, which was in 1769.

So what’s your guys biggest hook?

As part of my research, I ran an experiment evaluating the impact of culture on LP development. In the local science competition, I got 1st place, as well as 20 of my competitors who came in 1st place.

The following is an email forwarded to me from my schools college counselor… best of luck to all

“Dear Colleague,

I am writing to inform you that Early Decision admission decisions will be posted Thursday, December 13 at 6:00 p.m. EST and can be viewed through the applicant’s Brown Account Portal. Applicants received an email earlier today outlining the date and time, including a link to the Brown Applicant Portal.

Brown received over 4,200 Early Decision applications for the Class of 2023, which constitutes a 21 percent increase over last year. This is the largest Early Decision application pool in the University’s history. Brown will make 768 offers of admission to next year’s incoming Class of 2023.
More than 50 percent of the Class of 2023 students admitted through Early Decision have applied to receive financial aid. Brown meets 100 percent of demonstrated financial need for all admitted undergraduates, and 43 percent of the University’s undergraduate student body currently receives need-based financial aid.

Nearly 12 percent of accepted students represent the first generation in their family to attend college. Additionally, 44 percent are students of color, defined as those who self-identify as African American, Latinx, Native American, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander or Asian. Of the accepted students, 390 are female and 378 are male.

The students accepted from the Early Decision applicant pool come from 37 nations, 47 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The top countries represented outside the United States are China, the United Kingdom, India, Singapore and Canada.

The Board of Admission has voted to defer 55 percent of the Early Decision applicants for a second evaluation of their credentials during the Regular Decision process. We will review the materials already submitted, as well as any additional credentials received in the coming months. The only item we require students to submit is their mid-year transcript. Students may elect to submit additional information through their application portal, which would include updates revolving around their senior year activities. Additional recommendation letters are neither requested nor required. The applicants will receive decisions from us on March 28.

Furthermore, we have denied 27 percent of the Early Decision applicants. We are very aware of the disappointment this may bring students and want you to know we have made every effort to make the same decision on their application in December

768 accepted students out of 4,200 applications is roughly an 18% acceptance rate. Not too bad considering the 21% spike in applicants this year.

“Additionally, 44 percent are students of color, defined as those who self-identify as African American, Latinx, Native American, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander or Asian.”

Any guesses as to whether that 44% figure includes Asians who are do not qualify for URM status (i.e. Chinese Americans, Korean Americans, Indian Americans etc …)?

Hey guys, I’m from the Harvard SCEA 2023 Forum!

Since both of our early decisions come out on the same day, I thought I’d share a post I made a few days ago::


Just in case Dec. 13 doesn’t bode well for me, I can still get on with my life bc that’s also Taylor Swift’s birthday & I mean I can rock out to some iconic bops 'cause Harvard & I will probably never, ever get back together.

Like, ever.

('til medical school. Or graduate school.)

But I think we can all SHAKE IT OFF because we know ALL TOO WELL how DELICATE of a situation EAing to Harvard is. Even if we don’t get accepted, we just won’t go BACK TO DECEMBER and instead be FEARLESS and think about THE LUCKY ONE college that you will grace with your presence next fall. No matter where you are, it’ll feel like EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED and you’ll get to BEGIN AGAIN regardless of whether or not you’re wearing RED – er, Crimson. As for our current STATE OF GRACE, our current idea of “College Life” won’t last FOREVER AND ALWAYS; we must be open to CHANGE.

I can’t help but feel like I DID SOMETHING BAD here. :))


Thanks for coming to my TED Talk! :wink:

@TheBigChef - I would say that yes, it includes Asian students.

I’ll take spokesman for this.

“Nearly 12 percent of accepted students represent the first generation in their family to attend college. Additionally, 44 percent are students of color, defined as those who self-identify as African American, Latinx, Native American, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander or ASIAN.”

Asian = Asian. So yes, it includes the Asian people.
