Harvard RD Class of 2020 Applicant Thread

@TheWaffleMan149 That should place thee within thy preferred range, should it not?

@aBitOfLuck Yes I do indeed hope so.

Wow My kind sires, I just noticed what an arsehole i sounded like. I do not see lives as commodities that can be substituted for marks. I hope thou dost Forgive my terrible english.

@TheWaffleMan149 what? lol you’re turning into a waffle señor.

Where else did you guys get in?

I got into Cornell ED but they didn’t give me any financial aid so I switched to Harvard because Harvard is need-blind for international students despite knowing that the odds aren’t in my favor really. What about you @rahuilmars231 ?

Got into Texas A&M (auto-admit, lol) and have a likely from ND.

Right now, my top choice among my acceptances is UVa, which is a great backup to have if you ask me!

Congrats to being accepted to those great schools!

@TheWaffleMan149 Lucky! I’m an RD applicant for UVa haha

I only have an acceptance from UIUC for CS right now

@alexxxcee I applied early 'coz why not. It was non-binding, so I just figured that I would go for it. It is fairly close to home, has an awesome architecture program, and honestly, I have not heard any bad things about it yet other than the large Greek life presence on campus

I am also OOS so I figured that any boost for my chances would help

@TheWaffleMan149 Lol true, I got deferred from both my EA schools ( UMich and Georgetown) hey, weren’t you on the Mich thread? lol your name seems familiar. Now here we both are in the Harvard thread. Yay for 5% acceptance rates!!! :slight_smile:

I got deferred from Penn/Chicago ED/EA and got rejected to a couple programs I was interested in recently so at this point I have absolutely no hope of getting into any top 20 school I like (mid-application season crisis here)

@VaishS I feel your pain

Like it is so bad I actually thought about withdrawing my app bc Im literally 100% sure I won’t get in. Like I can literally bet my non-existent million dollars on it

@alexxxcee @TheWaffleMan149 I feel like a lot of us are applying to the same places. I’ve seen both of you guys on the UMich thread, and I see a lot of the same people on each of the Ivy threads.

@VaishS How I feel with half my applications lmao

@whizkid98 I think I seen you on the Penn thread too lol so yeah basically we applied to the same schools. Most of us applied to the top 20 schools in the nation or nah
