international applicant

<p>a close friend of mine in Bangalore got his Harvard interview call 2 days back..now,India is not in the list of countries listed on the Harvard College website which specifically says that applicants from other countries apart from the ones listed above won't have interviews unless the admissions committee wants to know more about them..so is the interview call a good sign for him or is it just normal.??</p>

<p>man, i’m in Indonesia which is also not listed… but i want to have an interview just for the experience of it… seems like a lot of fun to talk to a Harvard graduate in Starbucks and trying to persuade why Harvard needs me… ha ha…</p>

<p>^^^^ i had mine a few days back too…it was really good…does it mean something?? am really excited…</p>

<p>dare7…are u applying to harvard for this fall too? i wish i could have an interview too so that the admission officer can know me better.anyway, where are u applying from?jakarta?</p>

<p>It’s good news in care you’re wondering. I have a friend that applied to Harvard and requested for an interview. The interviewer asked him if ______ (one of his classmates) was going to apply from Singapore. lol. That was a punch in the face. Good news for the other person though (yeah, I have no idea how this connects with the thread).</p>

<p>^^^^^^ true.lol…anyways its not possible for an international student to request an interview if his/her country is not listed…so does it imply anything if one gets an interview in one of the countries not listed without even requesting for one??</p>

<p>hey, I was just wondering if all those who are interviewed in India get through Harvard ?? cos only reallly few pple are interviewed… an 2 of my friends got an interview this year !! any idea pple ??</p>

<p>sweetmuffin, that’s right. I stay in Jakarta, applying to Harvard for fall 2009 admission</p>

<p>“hey, I was just wondering if all those who are interviewed in India get through Harvard ?? cos only reallly few pple are interviewed… an 2 of my friends got an interview this year !! any idea pple ??”</p>

<p>exactly my question…in fact, i am an applicant for fall 09 and had an interview last week so am wondering excitedly…</p>

<p>I want to know the exact same thing. . .maybe Northstarmom would know.</p>

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>haha so were you the “close friend”? Well, I’m not sure on the policies of interviewing for Harvard, but just pray and hope that on March 31st, you really will get a good response!</p>

<p>bump…anyone please??</p>

<p>c’mon…anyone knows the answer to this.?</p>

<p>maybe no one can give you an answer? You have only around 3 weeks before you get your decision anyways :).</p>

<p>^^ absolutely true…sigh</p>
