***Official Harvard Class of 2012 Waitlist Thread***
I think we should have a more stable waitlist thread, to determine how many of us on CC are actually on the waitlist, any updates, and just general comments and concerns.

Congrats on getting onto the Harvard waitlist during the most difficult admissions year in history! Now let's support each other!

I guess great minds must think alike! We posted our threads at about the same time. We can use your thread, wish I could delete mine.

Does anyone know how big the waitlist is yet? If it is only 1500 students then I actually feel pretty lucky

That's what I assumed, any more accurate answers? Did your counselor say this?
