That would be incredible.
yeah, he could just post a list.
The following people have been rejected. In an attempt to go green we're saving energy by not sending out multiple emails and just notifying everyone via this blog. You were all oustanding and we wish we could accept everyone, but sadly we cannot. I'm sure some of you will get into fantastic schools and some of you (those who had no business applying to Harvard in the first place) may end up at a TTT but good luck to you regardless.

JR.

The List:


Joe Schmoe (TLS name: JS235)
Jane Schmoe (TLS name :JS_Bomber_4)

Kick-ass! Hopefully this means that the admissions train at Harvard is going to start moving again. . .

Another TLS shoutout from an HYS admissions dean! Now, where's Faye Deal?

Did you have anything substantial in your LOCI that compelled JR to get you out of the hold group?

+1 I'm interested in knowing what schools want to see. Did you send a new LOR etc?

Thanks for the congrats, everyone. Truth be told, I probably wouldn't have thought to send a LOCI without TLS. So, thanks for that too!

JR made it seem like hold was actually a positive place to be in his blog. He put such a good spin on it that I now have some false hope.

really? his blog post actually made me a little sad.
JR wrote:In the last couple of weeks, I’ve started to go back through the holds. Some of you, we’ve already admitted; others have been asked to interview. Don’t freak out if that’s not you. This is a fairly long process, and it will take 6-8 weeks to go through all the applications, at which point some of the remaining holds be shifted to a wait-list.
the tls representation so far: 1 hold was admitted, and 1 hold got a jr1. JR's definition of "some" and "others" seem disheartening to me.

also, his portrayal of the jr1 didn't clear up any of the confusion surrounding the large group of jr1 holds.

With almost identical numbers to me. That's discouraging.

well he seemed to imply that jr1 holds got the jr1s because they were more interesting to start with and they applied earlier in general, i think his definition of "some" is "very little".
