It’s the 13th. According to another source on “Ivy Wise” Blog
https://blog.■■■■■■■■■■■/blog-0/class-of-2021-early-decision-notification-dates
I have it from a reliable source that despite their earlier quibbling on whether or not the decision was going to be the 13th, a Harvard AO said it will not be changed and they will go forth as planned: Dec 13th, 5PM EST
May I make one suggestion about the “filming my own reaction” thing? Please excuse this as this is definitely a generational thing.
I think it’s gratuitous. If you’re accepted, you share this your excited extremely unique honor with others – who won’t have it. It seems like bragging to me. I get that your loved ones might enjoy sharing the moment – but at what cost to others? What if gramma shares it on FB? You can youtube lots of them now from previous college applicants.
To my sensibilities, act like you’ve been there before. Be gracious. The reward isn’t a 15 second video. It’s your life afterward. To me it’s like putting up a huge Harvard banner in front of your house. It’s kinda of a tool thing to do, IMHO.
Feel free to completely disagree – I’m only sharing my own opinions and sorry if I come across as a grouchy old dude! hahaha
Good luck all.
@T26E4 - thank you for the confirmation of the date and time.
@krauser126 OBS Studio works really well.
@T26E4 thanks so much for the confirmation of the date! For the video thing, I understand your concern, but frankly I’m just doing it for myself to watch twenty years from now (funny memory). Not going to post anywhere.
I’m having such a difficult time focusing on anything today! Urgh…
@Ceciliaagnes, I know right! These are interesting times…
So I talked to my counselor and she said she was not contacted for quarter grades…
Who was/wasn’t contacted for Q1 grades?
I wasn’t
@class2021 I believe I was. Soon after Q1 grades closed, a mysterious document labeled “Academic Work” appeared on my portal, and I had assumed that it was a copy of Q1 grades.
I sent my first-trimester grades by myself, as they were way better than the other ones (we don’t have quarters).
Everyone here seems so much more qualified than me :-S I also didn’t get contacted for first quarter grades or an interview so I’m just a litttttle bit more stressed now. I’m trying to remember that my decision is already made and I can’t change it but I am just soooo anxious.
so no one know for sure for sure they were contacted for those grades?
@ElizaSH , I think it depends on where you live if you were contacted for an interview. I know it was a requirement for my area (Charlotte), but other areas might not have available alumni, especially if out of state.
Anyone else applying wanting to do an astrophysics major? Just wondering…
@johonmilla I really do but my dad made me indicate Engineering on the application! Was Astro an option?
Lol I hope people post reaction videos.
@fedfan1998 , their options for major was vague, but I basically clicked the category it belonged to, physical science. I know they do offer an astrophysics major (concentration) though.
