The Harvard Waitlist Waiting Room 2014 Thread

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>I saw that one of these was started for the class of 2012 and followed the process all the way through June. It was pretty cool to read through, so I thought we might want to start one to keep each other updated on strategies, share anxiety, and hopefully share congrats when the blessed calls from the 617 area code start coming in.</p>

<p>I'll start. Lurker parent. Just signed up. My S was waitlisted at Harvard (accepted to some awesome LACs and Berkeley but still hoping...)</p>

<p>I’m staying on the list. Still deciding where to send my deposit … Maybe Duke, … or UMd (the $mart choice) … If I get the call (yea, right) I’ll go …</p>

<p>Yep after seeing the 2012 and 2013 thread both exceeding 1000 posts we def. should make the 2014 one!</p>

<p>Pretty excited about Michigan’s offer, and being with all of my friends there, but let’s face it, I’d be a fool to turn down a Harvard education.</p>

<p>Looks like people started hearing back around 5/10 and the way through the end of June.</p>

<p>When does Harvard usually start to take people off the waitlist?</p>
