<p>Hi! Does anyone know if the decision is actually stated in the email itself or if it just provides a link to access the decision via the harvard website?</p>
<p>I believe it's in the email itself. You can check the decisions thread from 2012 to make sure.</p>
<p>r u serious!? that's so brutal...I probably won't be able to take it...~~</p>
<p>i use gmail and probably will see the subject line from my inbox .... but i would make sure i don't see it so that i don't spoil the fun!</p>
<p>is the financial aid decision attached? how do we access that guy?</p>
<p>^I believe financial aid comes later by mail.</p>
<p>the decision is emailed to you and is in the email message. it has a generic subject and you won't be able to see your decision in the "preview line" that Gmail has for your messages, so you don't have to worry about that.</p>
<p>and yes, financial aid does come later by mail.</p>
<p>ah <a href="mailto:cr@p">cr@p</a>. i'll have to email them, then. thanks for that.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>oh my god. why does it matter? why are people on cc so ocd/neurotic?</p>

<p>I think everyone is so uptight because they'd like to have a definite divide between knowing and not knowing.</p>
<p>Sort of like...when a pool is cold, you want to jump right away, rather than slowly lower yourself in.</p>
<p>It is an email with a generic subject line, which was actually a good thing. We live in the central time zone, and it was already in the email inbox when we got home about 4:40 p.m. decision day.</p>
<p>In contrast, the websites were ridiculously swamped for some colleges that have you check their website, so it took quite a while to find out in those cases.</p>
<p>^Yeah, Yale's website was swamped this past December when EA decisions came out. I couldn't imagine how slow Harvard's web site would be if they posted their decisions online.</p>
<p>Well, for all those concerned about gmail's "snippets" or the "preview line", you can disable that feature in the settings area.... if it's that big of a deal to you.</p>
<p>when will we get the email?? march 31st???</p>
<p>Yes 10char</p>
<p>when on march 31st?? and how do u guys know the decision date? Harvard didn't say anything at all.</p>
<p>"The Admitted Students Website will be accessible after all email decisions are sent on Tuesday, March 31st, 2009 at 5pm EST."</p>
<p>This is from Harvard</a> College Admissions Office: Admitted Students.</p>
<p>^ That's like 4am for me... An all nighter is in order!</p>
