Indians Going to Harvard

<p>I'm an Indian residing in Saudi Arabia who desires to attend Harvard College after high school. Do we have any folks on here who were actually lucky enough to get accepted there? Do Indians generally have more or less of a chance than those of a different ethnicity?</p>

<p>Yes, there are loads of Indians there and they do have a tough challenge compared to another ethnicity because of the huge comparative number of applicants/selctions.</p>

<p>it’s definitely more difficult…coz u’re basically competing w/ a strong pool of fellow Indian applicants as well…remember, the admissions committee needs only a certain number of Indians to make the class diverse, yada yada yada…</p>

<p>Wow! Nice to see you drop by CC :D</p>

<p>haha…would love to help you guys out…how is everyone doing?</p>
