@ski_racer I can’t believe that after Tuesday we’ll all have to wait until the end of March to find out from the other Ivies! UGH!
I haven’t been this nervous since my elementary school graduation.
Thanks @skieurope
Since I am taking the A-levels, I will be spending most of my time preparing so I figured I wouldn’t be stressed at all.
Good luck everyone! I have also been silently checking this thread every day for the past few months. It seems so surreal that we will be finding out in 48 hours. Fingers crossed for acceptance instead of deferral so we don’t have to wait like this for another 171 days.
Good luck friends… on tuesday keep in mind that Harvard doesnt define you if you get rejected, or even accepted. Its all about what you choose to do with your own life.
Is it possible to get waitlisted early action at Harvard?
@Tommyboy8765 I don’t think there is a waitlist status for SCEA. It’s either accepted, deferred, or rejected
Correct.
I’ve been reading this thread for the past few days and I would also like to say to good luck to everyone! Although I’ve been having multiple anxiety waves throughout my days, I’m pulling through with the thought that no amount of worrying will change my result in the end. I hope everyone is thinking positive!
Also been on and off this site as a way to relax (though that makes no logical sense)! Just wanted to say good luck to everyone and to ask if anyone is applying from Oregon or if anyone has any links to state demographics as they relate to acceptance chances. That’d be sweet
Are deferrals common for Harvard? I thought that at a school like that it’d be more yes or no. I’m nervous, but also just gave up my hopes because about ten kids from my school also applied and they’re all smarter and more involved.
@whyamilikethis pretty common unfortunately. stanford’s one of the only “top” schools that defers very little and gives a definite answer during ea.
@whyamilikethis harvard defers 70%+ of applicants
i wonder why they wait so long to send emails out if everything is already finalized…
I’m so nervous lol I don’t think I have ever been this nervous before on one hand I’m like giving up because I know how selective Harvard is but on the other hand… I just can’t help but hope!! I’m from Hong Kong and I think only like 5 HK students get admitted each year so it’s gonna be extremely hard. Anyway good luck to everyone out there!
@lindaawu You can check on the Harvard International Office website for statistics on International students attending Harvard in each year. I think there’s been 9 from Hong Kong for each of the past two years. The link was posted before.
@ASDa123 thank you!! I’ll go check it out
@lindaawu I’m from Hong Kong too! Nervously waiting for the decision to come out on Wednesday morning! Which school do you go to?
@Billions omg that’s amazing!! I’m from St Paul’s Convent School (the one in Causeway Bay) hbu? Also I hate how the results are coming out in the morning it’s bad for my heart lol
