I could have sworn that I saw acceptances trickling in up until the 15th, but maybe that was another year?habeas2210 wrote:July 5th-8th last year, and they all came out on the same day.heregoeseverything wrote:Anyone have any idea when acceptances (or rejections) started to come last year?

Sorry, maybe that was the day then. I just remember seeing that they all came in at the exact same day, and then the following Monday/Tuesday were all the rejections.Joscellin wrote:I could have sworn that I saw acceptances trickling in up until the 15th, but maybe that was another year?habeas2210 wrote:July 5th-8th last year, and they all came out on the same day.heregoeseverything wrote:Anyone have any idea when acceptances (or rejections) started to come last year?

Anybody feeling brave enough to call admissions and ask?

Any TLS documented instances of top 5% from T20 being rejected? What are the odds?

Yikes, the idea of decisions coming next week is a bit scary ><
Also, to anyone who's also applying to Yale, don't forget the financial aid paperwork deadline is also 7/1, not just the application. From what I can tell, Harvard doesn't seem to require paperwork submitted before admission (at least, not beyond a FAFSA).

I'm sure it's happened. But you might as well relax. Nothing you can do now. Plus, odds are that you get in.PeanutsNJam wrote:Any TLS documented instances of top 5% from T20 being rejected? What are the odds?

From what I remember, there was a financial deadline in late August for transfers. My advice is once you get in and accept, call the financial aid office. They are super helpful and will give you all the information you need. But I finalized financial aid in late July/early August last year.

Columbia and NYU releasing decisions already. Penn as well. All with approaching deadlines. I'm thinking next week seems pretty reasonable for the majority of decisions.PeanutsNJam wrote:next week?

Re: 2016 Harvard Law School transfer thread
The TLS thread made it seem like all the accepts got their decisions on the same day. Can anybody else confirm that it is/isn't over a few days? If it's all on the same day, then if people here get admits and I don't that day then I'll know I was dinged. I don't want to wait on pins and needles after other people get admitted lol.habeas2210 wrote:Sorry, maybe that was the day then.

Looks like all the admits last year were on 7/9 and 2014 admits were 7/7. Probably 7/8 this year.

I think it was over two days with almost all of the admits on the first day, but a lot of dings, too. Then dings the next day, too.PeanutsNJam wrote:The TLS thread made it seem like all the accepts got their decisions on the same day. Can anybody else confirm that it is/isn't over a few days?

Re: 2016 Harvard Law School transfer thread
I think both 2014 and 2015 year the acceptances started either Monday or Tuesday of the first week in July, but there were acceptances that came in the following Monday too.NoDayButToday wrote:I think it was over two days with almost all of the admits on the first day, but a lot of dings, too.

Has everyone sent in their official transcripts already? My school still hasn't finished updating our transcripts even though spring grades have been out for almost a month...

I did, but I don't think it makes any difference. They will ask you for an official transcript once you get that call.scubasteve1208 wrote:Has everyone sent in their official transcripts already?

I sent in mine already but I too think there's no difference between official and unofficial when it comes to rendering a decision!
