Official Harvard RD 2016 Applicants' Discussion Thread

<p>omg i just wanna know already! idk how you guys arent driving urself nuts ike i am</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Did you apply early anywhere? I’ve found that after getting a less-than-happy decision from a HYPS school, I’m pretty much numb to all future outcomes. Sure, I’ll celebrate if I get good news, but Ivy Day isn’t really a day I’m looking forward to with bated breath.</p>

<p>I feel the same. It’s nice to have a realistic approach on things :)</p>

<p>Well, no i didnt apply early…i mean im not really excited…im more anxious…i feel like its a 50/50 for me right now</p>

<p>I wish I could have this realistic approach… I just want it so badly that it is hard to put HYP admissions in perspective!</p>

<p>@classicgirll
same feelings here…a good news will be AWESOME that day but a bad one will certainly send me tumbling down to the dumps…</p>

<p>Sometimes I think it’s impossible to be fully, mentally prepared for whatever decision we’re going to fact in 8 days… I know that regardless of what I’m gonna see on my laptop screen I’m gonna bang my head on the table for sure…</p>

<p>^ now that’s a good way to go about it lol ! jk! same here Im hoping for the best by I’m not ruling out the worst</p>

<p>Have any of you guys heard from other schools? Where do you think you will you will end up if Harvard rejects you?</p>

<p>hey you guys know at all if getting admitted by NEC increases chances for acceptance by harvard, if you applied to the NEC/Harvard dual degree?</p>

<p>If I don’t get into HYP or S, I want to go to one of the other Ivies or Berkeley.</p>

<p>@Rush10: Realistically, I think my best shot is at Penn. I’m pretty confident and I would love to go there. If I don’t get in there, I’d love to go to Columbia. If not Columbia, then Stanford. If not Stanford, then USC. :slight_smile: Hahaha…</p>

<p>@rush10</p>

<p>I would go Cornell engineering.</p>

<p>Guys, did everyone receive email from harvard that decisions will be coming out on the 29th? I got an email from all the ivies that I applied to, but I got nothing from harvard…</p>

<p>I haven’t gotten an email from Harvard and Yale…</p>

<p>does this mean anything?</p>

<p>Same here… No email from Harvard.</p>

<p>I got one from
Princeton and brown! none from harvard and Yale but my Princeton email was a lot later than some peoples so they may just be seperating them out … i mean it is 23,000 people they have to email</p>

<p>It probably means nothing.
Regardless, nothing from Yale, Harvard, or Columbia here. All the others sent stuff </p>

<p>Sent from my SPH-D710 using CC</p>

<p>Harvard doesn’t email applicants prior to the decision release date (I applied EA and was deferred). As you probably know, there’s no portal to log into. They email their decision letter to all applicants on March 29th(or two days later, as was my case :wink: …lol)</p>
