Has anyone submitted their application yet? I am so behind schedule these days.
On another note, what excites you most about Harvard? What are you looking forward to if you get in?
just submitted my common app today, good luck to the rest of yall!
Me too. Now the loooooong wait starts!
Hey guys.so I have a quick question. when is the deadline for putting Harvard in as a score recipient in the ACT/Collegeboard site? Can we put it in after the deadline has passed as long as the test was taken prior to the deadline?
Hey I had a quick question about my scores:
[SAT]
Composite Score: 1550/1600
Breakdown: 800 M and 750 R+W
Essay: 21/24
[ACT]
Composite Score: 35/36
Breakdown: 36 E, 36 M, 33 R, and 36 S
Essay 9/12
Which one of my scores is “better”?
I know a 35 on the ACT is about 1570-1590 on the SAT, but the 9/12 on the ACT essay is obviously worse than the 21/24 on the SAT essay.
Oops – my ACT science score was a 35 not a 36 (composite would stay a 35 though)
Just send in both, that’s what I did. But if I had to pick one, i would roll with the act
Did anyone get the applicant status portal yet?
Is it too late to start sending SAT scores at this point? Does the counselor stuff (transcript / school profile) have to be in before November 1st? If so I’ll need to submit a lot earlier.
Thank you!
No.
No. Your part needs to be submitted on time, but colleges allow leeway for items not under your control.
Do you guys think that October ACT scores will be ready for early action? I think the scores will come out some time in November but would they make a decision without my new scores event if I indicate on the common app that I am taking it again?
@yerin2021 on Harvard’s page it says they will receive October scores you just have to list it as one of the schools on your list to send right away.
@CollegeCraze72 Thanks! I’ll do that.
@saadzmirza - I submitted the common app on 10/11 and received the portal email on 10/12.
Will it be ok if I submit a financial aid application after 1st Nov?
@saadzmirza @MedSciBud Oh no, now I’m worried… I submitted my common app on 10/15 but I haven’t received any portal information yet!! Anyone else?
@kandykoloredbaby - first check if your common app shows as “downloaded”. If yes, go to application portal and click on forgot password.
How many of you are NMSF?
Has anyone gotten an interview with Harvard?
