+1 same here

on a related note, how are you not accepted already??
Also in this boat...
Same.
+1, submitted early November, though. Not to get our hopes up, but I would be incredibly surprised if all of us were rejected considering our strong numbers.

4/23 seems like a good day for decisions...anyone at Harvard reading this?

Hey guys. I'm held (173/175/3.7, non-urm). Held late feb. Does anyone have any estimate as to how much longer they'll be dealing with held files? (I am not going to be riding the waitlist, so this is off interest to me).

Common Sense would say that they should give us a decision (A/R/WL) in the next week, as the deposit deadline is May 1st. but who knows what Harvard is planning to do with us.

Common sense went out the window when that 4/4 held email said "you might want to deposit elsewhere if we haven't gotten back to you by mid-April."

This. I would very much LIKE to hear back by May 1 but I don't think its guaranteed. At this point thought, rejecting us would just be cruel. To apply in October and wait till May just to be rejected? Cruel.

really? i assumed the majority of the left over holds, or at least the ones held in january or before, would be WL. Yes im sure there are some rejections in there but most? Well that sucks haha.

Well considering that the WL ultimately results in no admittance for most of us: same thing, more waiting.

WLed just now. October submit, held in January, no KB1. URM.

It's been a long ride.

Beginning of a WL flood, maybe? Condolences/Congratulations to all, depending on your perspective!

Yea...I think it's a WL flood for the rest of the week.

I think they are whittling down their last files that are either a maybe KB1 or WL, or maybe WL or Ding. My thought is the former because I'm looking through LSN and many of the people still waiting to hear have strong numbers. Plus, I'm just praying that's the case.

Now I'm starting to get worried!

I need some positive vibes, or I'm going to freak the fuck out.

Doorkeeper · Post by **Doorkeeper** » Wed Apr 25, 2012 10:50 am

On a positive note, I looked back in LSN on the amount of people WL at Harvard over the past three years, and this year so far there are not nearly enough of people WL. There have to be a lot more WL emails to be sent out. This doesn't preclude more dings, but it does mean that more WLs should be coming.

Patience, Doorkeeper. No need to panic.

Waitlisted.

Although, this makes me feel better after the double-ding I received at Yale, and the silence I have from Stanford.
