Harvard 2024 Waitlist Thread

It depends on whether or not you feel like it’s well done. Make sure you feel absolutely confident in it. I think they often like risk takers, and it could highlight part of your personality. Just make sure it’s funny and light and not controversial

Is anyone else nervous that emails will go out today regarding WL release/still in consideration?

@Mommabear1 Oh yeah. Extremely nervous. I’m just trying not to think too hard about it. Also trying to keep my hopes up because I haven’t seen anyone get admitted this week…which would mean there wouldn’t be emails up. Then again, there is the chance that those admitted just weren’t in any of these forums or they didn’t post online about it. But yeah, nervous for sure.

@Mommabear1 Are they going to send emails today? Where do you get the info?

nobody knows

I don’t have a portal change (status is still there), which usually happens if they send out rejections. Is everyone else’s the same?

Me neither. I’m guessing (and hoping) there was so wave this week.

No portal change either. @mhuang31 past thread posts seem to indicate that acceptances usually go out on Mon/Tues (usually Tuesday) with portal updates/emails on Friday indicating whether you are still in the WL running or are released.

@Mommabear1 Nice pattern analysis!

Hang in there… One thing for sure, in a few more weeks…by the end of June… all situation will be clear.

Thanks for this update. Nothing for us either.

No email received.

Nothing for us either - still waiting patiently in Brooklyn

does anyone know if harvard (or any school for that matter) will rescind offers of admission for being arrested at a protest? since nyc suspended habeas corpus i’m suspecting there will be a lot of unwarranted arrests for no reason

I mean, I’m sure they would evaluate that on a case-by-case basis. I can’t imagine there being too many incoming Harvard students specifically arrested at a protest

Wishing everyone on this list phone calls tomorrow (assuming there is a wave). Good thoughts and positive vibes to all!

Anybody get any calls? Or emails?

@visreedhar - nothing yet in CA, but it is only 1 pm here. Calls in the past usually go out a bit later in the afternoon.

nothing yet in CA…waiting

Nothing in KS. Do we know if Harvard has released their yield yet?
