<p>PREACH.
I second the Harvard-related motion.
My Mom would cry if I turned down Harvard for anywhere.</p>
<p>I think the only way that people know if they have been accepted is if they are invited to Scholarship Day. My sister was invited back in 2007 and the invitation came before the acceptance by about 10 days, so yes, I’m not sure what people are hearing now in 2013, but there can be some good news circulating out there, as you can see on this thread. But I don’t think that just regular decisions are out yet. I could be wrong, but I don’t think I am.</p>
<p>Students who are recruited as athletes often know by now, so your friend’s friend may have been telling the truth. As for Harvard, my advice is to think about why you want to attend the school and whether it’s the right match for you. Don’t just go on the name. Find out whether professors are teaching the types of courses you want to take, or whether you’ll be in large lecture classes for the first two years, with grad students teaching the sections. (That’s a good question for any of the bigger schools, of course.) And visit if you can. Where do the seniors seem more like the person you want to be in four years? Which schools “feel right”?</p>
<p>Princeton (accepted)
University of Kentucky (accepted)
UNC
Duke
Yale</p>
<p>I also want people to know that you truly do or have to be a superhuman to get accepted into Harvard. I go to a semi-competitive public school in MAryland where I’m not even in the top 10%, I am white and also Jewish, no legacy or financial connection to Harvard, 29 ACT composite; but I am a member of my county’s health department and I have been told that I wrote “beautiful” and “mesmerizing” essays haha. Also, I have a few friends who also got accepted EA to Harvard and received SAT scores for each section that were less than 650. I just hate how many students feel inadequate for “top tier” schools. Most admissions decisions are truly based upon what you personally can offer a school beyond the classroom, especially at liberal arts- focused schools like Harvard.</p>
<p>…still waiting.</p>
<p>So… possibly tomorrow?</p>
<p>If not tomorrow, I’m cutting myself off from the Internet.
Hurry up chapel hill. I’d look better in blue than in NCSU red. </p>
<p>Any of you know for certain what your major will be?</p>
<p>If it doesnt happen tomorrow, we check out until the 30th.</p>
<p>International Business. If I get in plan on applying to the GLOBE Program as a freshman. May double major with Finance, but we’ll see ;P</p>
<p>I’m guessing tomorrow or Friday.</p>
<p>Biology, then on to med school.</p>
<p>TOMORROW PLZ THX LOVE ME</p>
<p>My guess is Friday.</p>

<p>Please, DO I HAVE A CHANCE</p>
<p>Best of luck to you all! I hope to be at UNC in the fall, and I hope to see you all there!</p>
<p>The mental anguish is wearing down my young ambition. So am I the only undecided soon to be tarheel? (We are now assuming we all got in to ease the wait)</p>
<p>If that is your UW GPA I’d say you’re fine.</p>

<p>Yeah it’s unweighted</p>
<p>Yeah, you’re probably fine as long as your AP/IB classes are in order and you’ve got a pretty rigorous senior schedule.</p>
<p>Yeah.</p>
<p>I’m taking
AP English
AP Calculus
Chemistry (We don’t have honors or AP)
Advanced French
Music Literature and Analysis
Private Piano Lessons
Music Master Class</p>
<p>I go to an arts school, so those last three classes replace regular academics.</p>
