Accepted to Stanford EA. Applied to one state school, Princeton, and Harvard RD. Does anyone know when likely letters come out?

Does Harvard do likely letters? I was under the impression that they were just for athletes applying SCEA.

Does Harvard do likely letters?

Yes, for RD about 100 non-athletic recruits receive likely letters. Which means that the vast majority of accepted applicants will not receive a LL, so don't sit around refreshing your email.

@kimtaehyung, based on history, Harvard likely letters should go out in the portals this Friday 2/15

No one has yet contacted for an interview, but everyone in my school has already had theirs, the anticipation is killing me LOL, but whatever is meant to be will happen. Should I contact admissions?

@nerdmd: FWIW: The Admissions Offices at Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, and Cornell do NOT schedule or set up interviews. Instead, they pass the applicant's contact information on to the local alumni chapter and they let the local assign an interviewer and schedule an interview. So, contacting Admissions Offices will not actually result in receiving an interview; you'll just become a pest. You have to sit tight and wait.

Hello all! I have a question. I applied RD to Harvard. I moved, but I changed my address on the portal today. Someone from my last address told me I got a mail from Harvard. Any clue what that could be? I’m sure the decisions can’t come this month so I have no idea. I’m kinda nervous until I go get my mail.

Any clue what that could be?

Nothing critical

Unless things have changed, LLs are sent electronically.

Any one get likely letters? Congrats to anyone who does in the upcoming days!

What time are the likely letters uploaded to the online portals? Are they confirmed to come out today?

skieurope

they confirmed to come out today?

They do not confirm anything. People only assume based on history that they will start to come out today.They'll be sent when they are sent. And to reiterate, with only ~100 LL going out this round, the vast majority of accepted applicants will not get one.
