URM at lower t14, top 5%. Horrible undergrad GPA (closer to 3.0 than 3.5) and no softs to write home about. what would you say my admissions odds are?

Re: Harvard Transfer Thread 2015
I submitted on June 1 (online) and the application status checker has nothing listed under the "requirements" part where it has headers for "item" and "status". Is that normal?

Checking in! > 4.0 from T1 (30s). My school doesn't rank but told us ~3.7 was top 10%, so not sure exactly where I am in the class. Good luck to everyone!!
