<p>I thought the date was always before Dec 15, like possibly Dec 10thish??</p>
<p>December 14 5 pm.</p>
<p>I predict the Internet will crash that day and all post office will be closed :D</p>
<p>5 pm Eastern Time, byerly?</p>
<p>What did you think... Greenwich Mean Time? Harvard is an international university, to be sure, but not THAT international!</p>
<p>Byerly, so sorry for my ignorance!</p>
<p>No problem!</p>
<p>Dangit...I wanna know NOW :) :)</p>
<p>Byerly...are you sure it was around 3700 applicants. where are your sources? Every time some one asks you pleasantly(:)) avoid the question. Also, I called for some info and could not help but ask and they said something about 3900 applicants or only a slightly less number of applicants like 4000. I am confused! Elucidate please:)</p>
<p>Around 3,700 is what I've heard. We'll just have to see.</p>
<p>How many do you think that they will end up accepting?</p>
<p>My wild guess: between 800-900</p>
<p>Well... I am a senior this year in High School. This past summer I attended Harvard Summer School, the high school program where you can earn credits. How much do you think that will help me when being considered for Early Action?</p>
<p>Not too much.</p>

<p>What are my chances Byerly?</p>
<p>Oh and by the way, sorry for posting this stuff on this post... it was just easier to get answers. Thanks guys!!</p>
<p>Byerly do they look at the ACT subscores from different tests and take the highest (consideration) of each. I always do well on two sections of the ACT and horrid on the rest. If they combined them I would have a decent ACT average...what do they do my wonderful harvard advocate????? :)</p>
<p>Wow I feel like Byerly is being harassed.</p>
<p>He can handle it!</p>
<p>If the admission office finishes going over the apps early they won't post the decisions before 12-14 5 PM? </p>
<p>I distinctly remember my friend saying that he wouldn't find out if he got in till Dec 15, but when he checked on the 10th the decision was already up. Any ideas?</p>
<p>The admissions office E-mails the decisions; they don't post it on their website like Cornell or UPenn.</p>
