****Official 2013 Harvard Waitlist Thread****

<p>just wondreing, my mom said she read somewhere that they are only taking 85 ppl from WL…anybody have same or contrary info?</p>

<p>Here is the article indicating 85</p>

<p>[The</a> Harvard Crimson :: News :: Yield Holds Steady For 2013](<a href=“http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=528168]The”>http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=528168)</p>

<p>so few from CC got off the WL… is it over now?</p>

<p>Almost 5PM… :wink: This is going to be random, Does anyone know where to find an English translation for Chaiyya Chaiyya from Dil Se?</p>

<p>I got a call!!!</p>

<p>but it was from my band teacher… =(</p>

<p>my GC called and asked “is this YEli?”…my heart was pounding until I figured out it was only my GC</p>

<p>WHY must telemarketers love to call in the 5-6pm time frame?
Two days in a row. First one was an airline, the other a chimney-cleaning service.
Quit playing games with my heart…</p>

<p>My son was admitted off the wait list on Monday. We live in England and he attends the international school here. They’ve taken 2 off the wait list so far, and had originally admitted 2.</p>

<p>^ they admitted 2 from England? or overall? what?</p>

<p>Thanks for the lyrics!</p>

<p>I had a thought today… I believe they make phone calls region by region and discuss applicants region by region. If the northeast is not being discussed until tomorrow and a large group of applicants is from the northeast, that would explain why we haven’t seen many calls in the last week.</p>

<p>why is the NE tomorrow? How do we know what regions they have done? OperaDad in somewehere in the Central Time Zone…</p>

<p>I dont know about the northeast being tomorrow because I’m from NY and my friend got in on tuesday.</p>

<p>I just heard from my interviewer (who just spoke w/my regional adrep) that the regional lists are being compiled now. They will be brought together for review next week, when the first round will be decided.</p>

<p>When does the first round “end?”</p>

<p>The first round ends May 19… Whyyyyyyyyy.</p>

<p>^hmm, so if the first round ends may 19th, they will have to make decisions by monday-ish, right?</p>

<p>@yeli, you’re interviewer seems pretty helpful, that’s really neat. if they’re going to review the lists next week, how come a few people have already been admitted? If I had to guess, I would have to say that they were special cases: admitted based on a glaring need to round out the class of '13.</p>

<p>any ideas guys?</p>

<p>So they’re going to take 85 of us (roughly) off the waitlist, but 85 out of how many of us? I mean, how many are we on the waitlist right now?</p>

<p>For those who were called, what did your caller ID say? Does it actually say Harvard Admissions? I will probably pass out if i see that haha</p>

<p>Gallus - Harvard doesn’t share any specifics like that
I mean people still don’t know the exact number of last year’s waitlistees lol</p>

<p>Roll the dice… 7:30! Come on, 7:30! o_-</p>

<p>Anyone else have info about regional meetings of the committee? We know for a fact that they’ve been meeting since last Friday (May 8). What have they been doing the whole time?</p>
