Harvard EA

Applying to College

<p>Is it true that when it comes down to it, Harvard EA is virtually impossible for a student from Canada? I mean, I'm good, but I wouldn't say I'm Canada's top scholar. I AM good in that I am one of the top 5-10% of scholars, but there are rumours here and there about how Harvard EA is already competitive for American students, and virtually impossible for Canadian (or other international) students. </p>

<p>How true is this statement? Harvard has been my dream since I was like 6 (purely for the name) but after Grade 10, I did research in to Harvard's programs and it really is the school of my choice. I'm so absolutely convicted to go to Harvard, but rather subdued because of these rumours. </p>

<p>Any input would be appreciated!</p>

<p>I suggest you go over to the Harvard CC board and ask the same question. They might be more knowledgeable. Here's the link:</p>

<p>By the way, you should post your SAT scores, GPA, class rank, etc. You'll get a more informed response that way.</p>

<p>Hmm I guess you're right, Suze. It was pretty presumptuous for me to claim that. If you've seen my stats, then perhaps you could chance me for Harvard RD or Yale RD.</p>
