Hey, has anyone on this thread been placed on the waiting list?


Hi there, I have been waitlisted too... Sadly... I guess that it is the same of being rejected, I don't think we have much of a chance. Is there any way to know where do we stand in the waiting list?

If I'm not wrong, you can write to them asking for your place on the waiting list. While they will not tell you the exact place, I think they do tell you what percentile you are on the waiting list. Also - it is usually a good idea to send them a statement of continued interest in joining Harvard. Some people even include an additional letter of recommendation to try and get bumped up the waiting list.

Good luck!

Has anyone else been sent a personal email by a faculty member after being admitted?
Is this a routine thing for all admitted students or is the faculty member really interested in me specifically.

I didn't get any emails, but there could be many reasons for this. Does the wording not indicate whether it is a standard letter or something personal?

I also just received an email from a Professor whose area of expertise is related to the topic of the essay I wrote in the personal statement.
It is actually really nice of them to do that. It shows a great deal of interest in our application.

Nothing on my side. Do they usually release all financial aid decisions at the same time like in case of offers? Thanks.

Hi. I like many others have been offered a loan + grant scholarship by Harvard. Does anyone know if we need to accept both in order to accept either? I am currently desirous of accepting the grant but not the loan.

Has anyone with a financial aid (grant) offer declined to go to Harvard? If so, could you please share the amount that was offered to you? I submitted a late financial aid application and was only offered a loan. The admission office says my application might be reconsidered if someone declines their scholarship offer.
