<p>For the first time, harvard is coming to my highschool and going to have a meeting with students.. hmm, they had never come to my school since the school was built... (since 1977) lol</p>
<p>I don't know why they are coming to school suddenly; There must be one who got into harvard from my highschool right?</p>
<p>Don’t see why…</p>
<p>You’re saying they’re meeting with students because someone who applied this year got in? That wouldn’t make sense; why would they meet with students if everyone already sent in their apps?</p>
<p>They’re meeting at your school because they want more people to apply in future years, that’s all. It’s the equivalent of receiving letters in the mail after you take your PSATs.</p>
<p>Marketing purposes. Why *shouldn’t *they visit? It gives them an opportunity to get their name out there to students who perhaps would never even consider applying.</p>
<p>This might be UMRP related. A couple of my minority friends are participating in this really cool program – you get your flight home for spring break paid for – and they get a list of schools with numbers of students who have been targeted as potential future admits. Very cool stuff.</p>
<p>So, yeah, marketing purposes. Just really, really aggressive and carefully-planned ones.</p>
