That's the only way to explain the bizarre office hours... it also explains why it's always this date...

Now I can't sleep. I shall have nightmares.

Was it always after 5pm? I thought I found a thread where people were reporting decisions about 11am Boston time. Maybe I'm mistaken though, it all blurs into one.
I will keep an eye on the email and on this website til 11pm UK time but I'm not losing sleep and another day of productivity over the possibility of a Harvard decision...
eta: hope you manage to get to sleep, cheshire, and wake up to good news :)

Guys I'm sure of it!!!! It's definitely coming in the next few hours! Maybe they're not deciding on applicants, but they're definitely sending out the decisions! AH!

Shall we compose some sort of HLS Admissions drinking game? It could be considered a public service to next year's applicants. Naturally we'd have to trial it.

@lextra, thanks. I really could do with some sleep. It has been such a dull day! And I wish you the very best as well. :)

@ Cheshire - thanks man! I hope well all get over, and then we can joke about that silly guy togatoga=college. Who was that cheeky rapscallion!?
Drinking game sounds awesome! What did you have in mind?! I'm in the library listening to the Final Countdown!

I don't know whether you will get in or not. But pray you will. I am a 2010 candidate who wishes this year would last 2. This was by far the best experience of my life and I would not chose Harvard over any other school in the world.
Good luck.
PS: I never expected to get in, so keep your hopes up!

Thanks a million Crimlawyer! That's some much needed encouragement right there!
Thanks a million to all of the current LLMers for their support in fact. I love the fact that you are coming back to the Board this year to reassure the candidates.

Right... place your bets!
My money is on 8.30pm Boston time (so 00.30 GMT).
Any takers?

@Crimlawyer! Also if you don't mind me asking, what did you gauge the requirements to be for applicants? Did you guys feel, in retrospect, that there was any particular common feature on your applications that was especially crucial?
Also, do you have any idea when the decisions are coming out? !!! :)

@Lextra! That is awesome! I'm not going to get to sleep at all tonight!

togatoga I really admire your enthusiasm and I hope you get in. Especially if I get in, coz I will need those jokes and youtube videos. hahaa.
I support the drinking game.
Hey, we should think about the posibility of suing harvard if they release the decisions after Friday. hahaha. oops. hope none of them read this. If i dont get in, you'll know why.

Damm, looks like everyone is on the edge waiting! lol. Toga toga, while I admire you enthusiasm, I think it won't be today. I hope I'm wrong, but I've seen the email sent to my friend from the admissions office, it says that decisions "will most probably be available by the end of next week" (it was sent last week).
So yes, it could be today, but they would have said beggining of next week then? Don't know, just trying to give you the best possible info.

Hey tato, I'm worried that you are correct! But... I believe that they will come out this evening! They have always had a red herring date to fend people off from calling them! The same explanation can be applied to their early deadline (nov 15). It's an administrative slight of hand!
