<p>Don’t worry, it doesn’t mean anything yet</p>
<p>we can always call Thursday morning for the decision! That is also an option people!</p>
<p>Do not call! Do you really want them to hear the desperation?</p>
<p>I’m sure you can call but you’d just be being a dick to the overworked staff. You can wait a few hours. </p>

<p>There was a split second where I legitimately considered fitting in calling the admissions office tomorrow morning.</p>
<p>Yes, that is the sort of person I am.</p>
<p>^ uh… the site doesnt say that for me and i can still log in. WHY?!</p>
<p>(not saying it means anything but why is the site different. mine still says the usual)</p>
<p>you can’t call thursday morning. you can call the day after, though. i remember reading it somewhere</p>
<p>@moonlight: try refreshing the page.</p>
<p>just to put everyone’s mind at ease about this silly login status page thing – my friend and i called the admissions office earlier and we were told that it was simply a glitch that they were trying to fix. it doesn’t mean anything. no worries guys</p>
<p>I swear I will kill the next person who brings up the website… just chill, have a beer. Do some Latin hw. That’s what I’ll be doing.
Minus the alcohol of course ;)</p>

<p>haha! ^ well said</p>
<p>try clearing your cache…</p>
<p>I just thought about calling Friday. But, can you imagine the pain they will hear if they say you were rejected? I’d rather suffer from afar, or maybe in a little corner or something…</p>
<p>I am going to be spending all of Saturday with an amazing girl. That’s my real countdown…</p>
<p>I’m going to take pain killers and sleep it out. :P</p>
<p>I will be spending Saturday seeing Sherlock Holmes, and possibly going to a consolation dinner at a Japanese restaurant</p>
<p>Does anyone else have that constant feeling of being about ready to throw up at any moment? I do!!!</p>
<p>For all of you anxious applicants, hopefully the following story will give you a little bit of comfort as you await tomorrow’s results. Last December my son applied to Harvard at literally the last moment – 10 PM on December 31st. One of his main incentives for applying was that, unlike the LACs he was primarily interested in, Harvard didn’t require a supplemental essay. Although my son’s stats were good, they were probably a notch below Harvard’s average: 2230 combined SAT, 8th in a class of 85 (3.94 unweighted GPA), no hooks except possibly the fact that he attended a small rural high school. To be honest, he didn’t think he had a prayer and so he didn’t give it another thought. On March 30, I picked him up at school at 5:30 and drove him home. Ten minutes later, as I was changing clothes in my bedroom, I heard him screaming from our basement that he’d gotten into Harvard. For the next 30 minutes, it was like he’d developed Tourette’s Syndrome – all he could say was “Holy ****” over and over again. At the same time, my wife broke down in tears and said she wouldn’t believe it until he got his admissions letter – which he did three days later. My point is simply that you should never give up hope. Once you reach a certain threshold, it stops being about grades and scores and becomes much more of a subjective question about what you can bring to Harvard. The boy who was number one in my son’s class and who had perfect SATs didn’t get waitlisted at a single Ivy. And if my son hadn’t unexpectedly gotten into Harvard, he would have been perfectly happy going to Amherst, Middlebury, Bowdoin or Swarthmore. So don’t sweat it. If you’re strong enough academically to apply to Harvard, you’ll get in some place terrific. Good luck!</p>
<p>^claudeturpin: very uplifting story! Anything is possible. You mentioned your son’s objective stats being below average, but I believe it was his personality, which you forgot to mention, that Harvard saw fit :)</p>
<p>Well I feel stupid.</p>
<p>I chose to not have my admissions decision emailed… Now that we are less than 24 hours away from the decisions being released, I really want to get an email. Does anyone know if i could possibly get my name on the emailing list by making a phone call to the admissions office in the morning? Otherwise, I guess I’ll just have to wait till Monday… :(</p>
