Harvard SCEA Class of 2020 Applicant Thread

@schroscat Will all portals be updated by 5:00 then?

@beedigger In what regard?

@schroscat You said that the e-mails they will send Thursday starting at 5 PM will tell applicants to check their portals. Does this mean that the decisions will be in the portals rather than in Thursday’s e-mails?

If yes, will the portals have all decisions by 5PM?

Hello to fellow lurkers :stuck_out_tongue: I’ve been following this thread since it was made, just thought I’d pop in!

@schroscat @tuty143 How do you know it’s Thusrday? On the applicant portal it says Dec. 15

I keep on stress baking cookies. It’s definitely not good for my waistline but is decidedly good for the soul–I figure it’s a better outlet than drugs

@ThatCoolCat Yay!! I LOVE IT WHEN MORE PEOPLE JOIN. How are you today :slight_smile:

And historically the decisions have come out at least 30 minutes late (other schools are much worse about this). Friends who applied last year said that decisions weren’t in the email

Pretty good, just stressed… I’m also finding out at a track meet @careybanana

Guyssss for the millionth time, we found out the decisions come out December 10th by calling the admissions office lol. Multiple people above confirmed this, including myself.

The portal will have the decision; the email will tell you when the portal is ready.

@amyisraelchai we’ve had a couple people in this thread call in and ask the admissions office who have verbally confirmed that it will be the 10th if all goes as planned.

Hi everyone! I’ve been reading along for quite awhile, but figured I’d jump in and wish you all well this week. I applied regular decision, but I wish my application had been ready for early !! Can’t wait to read the results… best of luck! :slight_smile:

@idislikethesats Welcome! Thanks for the well wishes. Btw I love your name and agree with it.

Happy 150 pages!

Are you guys gonna wait until 5:30 to check or just open your portal at 5 and keep reloading it?

@flautamagica honestly I think I am going to wait in blissful limbo until 530 or whenever I get my email so I can keep the illusion as long as possible

@tuty143 that’s a good idea! I’m going to try to do that but I know I’m too OCD to wait haha

@tuty143 I finished the episode. I’m really not surprised about Pete though
