I just graduated and want to send my updated transcript over to Harvard (currently on the waitlist). Does anyone know how to do so?
Via LSAC. Send it to LSAC and they auto-update the schools you've applied to. I'd send a follow up email, though.

11 days and counting (since receiving JS1 via email)...

Still no sign of JS2. Previous 2 cycles had a lag time of 9ish days :(

Just an FYI...based on my interview, it seems there are not so many open seats left for this cycle.

Oh man that's depressing, what made you think that? Feel free to PM if you'd prefer. Hopefully you'll hear back soon!

There wasn't anything secretive about it. She was quite explicit.

Three people were just added to the Facebook group today, two by Harvard admissions and one by a random person.

Anyone know whether in general Harvard sends out all their acceptances at once or they stagger it over a few days?

I thought only admin could add people to the official Harvard '19 group and they had to be approved (i.e. checked by Harvard admissions to make sure they're actually admitted students)?

Apparently other people can be added too.
In this case, it was a false alarm. The people who were added were admitted a while ago, but for some reason, they were not in the group.
This makes the group, which was already unreliable because it contains people who deposited elsewhere, even more unreliable as a metric.

I just withdrew from the waitlist. It was a long shot anyway. It has been an honor waiting with all of you guys. Congrats to the JS2s and best of luck to all of you going forward! If any of you end up at UVA, I'll see you there!
