Re: Harvard Waitlist 2012
Can we all wait for a confirmed JS2 before we freak out?
For all we know it was the dude's dentist.

A couple months ago I got a call from 203 that turned out to be the pizza delivery guy.

JS: I'm bored.
KB: Me too.
JS: We probably should accept some people and fill out the class.
KB: Yeah, good idea.
JS: Where should we start? [gazes over stacks and stacks of waitlist folders]
KB: Well it's almost closing time. We probably don't have time today.
JS: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
KB/JS: [in unison] PRANK CALL MONDAY!
[fade to black]
End Scene.

Re: Harvard Waitlist 2012
Interviews are scheduled for Tuesday. If we don't hear today, it probably means that those interviewing this week are being included in our "JS1 -> Admit?" pile from last week's interviews.curiouscat wrote:Why, is there no chance for Tuesday?sharktankdean wrote:after that looong ass weekend it will be really annoying if nothing happens today....cuz it means we would have to wait till at least Wednesday.

Yea. Harvard has definitely chillaxed during Mondays this cycle. I expect calls on Wed and/or Thurs since interviews are tomorrow. This should be a fun wait...

Optimistically, maybe JS is making calls while KB is interviewing tomorrow?
I doubt it because I'm pretty sure I was on speaker when I had my interview (meaning KB might've been in the room).

Re: Harvard Waitlist 2012
I would be able to handle it better if I wasn't leaving for new York next Wednesday. If I decided to/got in I could still move to Boston from NYC but I'm stressed about the money and logistics just thinking about it. I hope we hear one way or the other this week.
I also wish I knew you guys IRL so i could stop checkin this thread and just hear when something finally happened via text, lol

Re: Harvard Waitlist 2012
My thoughts are two-fold:
1) Perhaps the pulls from the waitlist is much larger this year than in past years. I think this is true based upon the large number of TLS people who have already received JS1s. Therefore they need more time to do the interviews and make the decisions. They did the JS1s without full knowledge of everything in order to contact those students who were of the highest priority for them.
2) JS2s might not be totally automatic this year like they were in years past. Perhaps they are making decisions as to who to make the first round of JS2s offers to.
Or, JS just DGAF and is taking her sweet time to make her decisions!
