Just wondering.
They started as soon as the EA round finished in December
So do you know what’s the best time to send updates?
Sending updates will make you look desperate, not a valued trait to adcoms.
Late January if you have genuine accomplishments for them to consider. Group them in one email.
Okay, I thought I use the materials uploader to upload a document but never mind the hassle. I’ll just email fileroom.
But what does Harvard consider as “genuine accomplishments”? Can I tell Harvard any changes that has occurred since my submission, or would that just add to the burden? It’ll be very brief and to the point.
The types of updates my kids sent to top colleges were finishes near the top of state competitions or significant awards received since the application was submitted. They also communicated any changes in their class schedule.
All right, very helpful!
