@humanities2014 and @dasdui, I think you two need a time-out. you’re both probably pretty cool people, so why don’t we just all chillax and be friends? nothing we can do about the admissions decisions now…

anyway, to actually answer the question, harvard requires 1st quarter grades. if you get a request, that’s absolutely nothing special - it just means your counselor didn’t send it when they were supposed to. if you go to a school on the semester system (aka mine), they still expect some sort of Q1 progress report (be it official or unofficial) and will ask for one.

remember that colleges want everyone to find out their decision at the same time, so they’re obviously not going to drop any hints. don’t ever try to read into anything, even the slightest premature judgment means you’re vastly overthinking any “sign” you think you’re picking up.

best of luck to everyone!
