Harvard RD applicant discussion 2024

@dli724144 did you receive a likely letter before getting in?

I know a couple students who got early acceptances today around 3:20 PM PST.

@musicallover2040 Were they recruited athletics or something like that?

@dli724144 The AO told me during the interview that they were assigned to my region, and that they had been the AO which read my application.

@hockey731 Cool! That’s exactly what the AO that interviewed me said too. :slight_smile: Good luck as RD decisions come out. If you have any more questions about your interview you can def talk to me about it. PM me.

@hehehaha No… I don’t think Harvard sends out likelies in EA except for recruited athletes, which I am not.

Do mean likely letters? They don’t send out acceptances until the Ivy day (March 26 this year).

You must be under serious consideration. There’s no other reason for an AO to spend time interviewing a student during the full committee meetings. It’s a good sign, but no guarantee by any means.

@musicallover2040 your post is apparently not true (see other thread) and is misleading folks.

@compmom it’s not untrue but ok. People have posted screenshots in their IG stories but i won’t share them for privacy reasons. I bet you if you called an AO they’d confirm that SOME decisions were released yesterday. I posted on other forums to hopefully get a conversation going about it bc I’m curious too.

@musicallover2040,

Follow my logic here. Why would Harvard admit someone early for RD when:

A. It would violate their own policy, and
B. They can send likely letters to their top applicants to get them excited

@hebegebe you’re asking the wrong person. I’m not the Harvard AOs.

MODERATOR’S NOTE:
Move on please. Harvard did not send out any acceptances. They have sent out Likely Letters. Posts on Instagram can be faked. For any Ivy to send out acceptances would violate the Joint Ivy Statement on Admission Policies. Did not happen.

Hi everyone, I just received a likely letter today…

@goneaway congrats! what time did you receive it?

@jkmsnj around 5 pm est

@goneaway thanks.

What are the odds we find out earlier due to coronavirus?

If anything we’ll probably find out later rip
