hey 1nkbl0tch, I live in Virginia. One person from my school was admitted regular, and 2 waitlisted. I don't know if the other person got a call yet though.

So I got the call from Harvard today. They told me that I had been offered a spot on the wait list and that I was going to be accepted. I didn't really submit any extra info though. I am an athlete so I'm pretty sure that the coach may have had some pull getting me off the waitlist. Long story short I declined their offer. So hopefully one of you guys will be called next :-D.

@VanillaExtract, may I know for what reason? I would rather not say my school as I will be extremely easily identified :]

@gadli, just wondering, what makes you think that? I really wish that were the case but it doesn't feel like it around here at all.

Thank you xd32! Congrats to everyone who got in!

So how many more open spots do you guys think there are after today? Better yet, does any one have any estimate of how many offers will be sent on average per day?

Congratulations to you too, xd32! Just curious. Did you have a "hook"? Sports? Music?
