omg actually tho!!! @Garybarry and I completely agree…@hcmom65
“z” list decisions are ordinarily communicated at the time of admissions decisions. Or at least they were for students I’ve known.
@hcmom65, @Garybarry, @collegegirl1998: Do you believe Harvard Admissions fibbed about admitting 2056 students from the SCEA and RD rounds? Do you believe Harvard Admissions fibbed about their 84% yield? If the answer is no to both those questions, then do the math! Given the numbers, Harvard is oversubscribed, as they only have about 1660 beds for incoming freshman. So, I would chalk-up the comment heard on a college group me chat about a student being admitted from the waitlist as false bravado, rather than Admissions not telling the truth.
@Garybarry did the best friend have legacy?
@gibby of course I believe the numbers. I didn’t say anything to the contrary. I’m just saying there are always cases for one reason or another where a kid or two may get in. I understand they only have 1660 beds for incoming freshman, but like you said they are oversubscribed. So they need to find more beds. Not sure finding one or two or a few more beds makes a difference.
Portal Updated: Rejected
Got the email too… rejected.
I didn’t get any email…anyone else experience this also?
@doorrealthe I didn’t get an email, either. You have to check your portal.
GOT OFF WAITLIST!!!:))))) Good luck to everybody else!
@ILoveStanford I did check my portal. No update
@ccash17 Did you get accepted?
Wow! Congrats. Did you receive email to check portal or did you receive a phone call? What time? Any info on your story would be appreciated and welcomed. Thanks.
@littlecrim so exciting! would love the learn how it all want down!
@doorrealthe I haven’t received any e-mail or update to my portal either. I assume this is happening in waves by region?
@ccash17: I can’t believe everyone on this thread is so gullible – nice joke though!
Actually it’s a shame.
^^ Yes, it is!
I’m pretty sure no ones getting in, at least for class of 2021, because the portal update says the class is full and they’re unable to take off the waitlist.
