For those who were admitted today: are you able to get into the admitted students website? I have the letter that says I was admitted (lol), but I can't seem to get into the website??? Should I be waiting for more info?

I think we are supposed to wait for more info. I believe we will get the login info in another email.

Thats why I'm wondering if people think todays wave was sizeable or not, if the latter perhaps we see two days in a row

And don't anyone forget to verify your address for shipping the admission packet! I don't know if that holds things up at all, but it's there on the status page

I can't believe how much better this admission feels compared to other schools! (mainly because I know I don't have to wait for scholarship information for it to feel real)*

*sorry if this feels like I'm rubbing it in at all to those still waiting, I just have no where else to vent my excitement. I wish everyone the best of possible outcomes!!

I just did a quick look over at LSN, and there were 18 users who updated today and 23 users last cycle, so it seems about the same. oh well until next month then!

February looks to historically be the largest wave and I'm guessing that will be true again this year

Didn't they also historically do Wednesdays except for the first wave? The fact they did JS2s yesterday (Tuesday) was a little surprising to me. I mean, maybe with the increase in apps and all that they're doing things a little differently this year. Columbia has certainly broken their usual pattern.

4.0 171. Got into everything but t3. Applied in October. Heard nothing from Harvard. Any chance I still get an interview request/ admission?

Just want to let you all know that the Harvard adcomm is way nicer than you'd expect! I reached out about a change in student status at grad school after getting accepted and they were totally understanding and gracious. :) Admissions people have souls, its true!

Same stats as you (also applied in Oct) and I got a JS1 on Monday so I wouldn't worry!

congrats to everyone who was accepted this week!

my status checker just updated with "GRE" and a big red X...I took both the GRE & LSAT but tbh don't remember if I told them I planned to send my GRE score.

any pointers?

i believe harvard wants all scores, so you’d have to send your GRE score if you have one

Harvard requires your scores from both tests

How did they know that you took the GRE when you only reported LSAT?

I got an email yesterday letting me know my status checker had been updated (with the letter) and just got an email now telling me I'll be receiving information over the next few weeks + inviting me to the admitted students FB group

I applied to their JD-MPH program so I'm assuming it was through some communication with Chan (who did get my score report) but it's also entirely possible that I indicated it somewhere on the application and totally forgot bc I have the memory of a goldfish.

Does anyone know what the "Harvard Intersections" events are? They are both on the Fridays before ASWs I believe.
