Official Harvard RD Decisions - Class of 2010

<p>I guess I'll allay all your anxieties by pointing out that I live less than forty miles from Cambridge, and haven't gotten any mail.</p>

<p>[by the way, it's interesting, querida's post below me was on the page before I started writing this one; the forums are doing strange things. Maybe all twenty thousand Harvard applicants should not freak out on CC?]</p>

<p>got the email. REJECTED OMG WHAT A ****IN GAY ASS DAY</p>

<p>Nothing yet. In at Columbia, yay!</p>

<p>nothing yet...ahh...i hate alphabetical order...or geographical order...or even worse: acceptance order</p>

<p>No sir for me.</p>

<p>I really like Harvard, but I can accept this decision.</p>

<p>Congrats to all those accepted!</p>

<p>I think its alphabetical!</p>

<p>might be alphabetical, my friend with last name starting with B got rejected a little while ago</p>

<p>Congrats GuitarMan! Really sorry for you tkm, let's hope for Harvard!</p>

<p>rejected, :(</p>

<p>TKM, don't worry, you're an awesome person and you'll end up somewhere amazing no matter what :) You don't need Yale! hehe</p>

<p>Argh. This is what I'm going to have to do. Go out. See V for Vendetta again. Drink heavily. Of root beer. Come back at 11:00 and THEN check my email.</p>

<p>:) But that won't happen.</p>

<p>can someone who got an email say their last name, or letter please??</p>

<p>Darn....Harvard rejected me but Yale accepted me!</p>

<p>tkm256, I'm in the same boat.</p>
