The website [Harvard College Admissions § Application Status Login](http://collegeadmissions.fas.harvard.edu/admitted/login.cgi) is for Admitted Students only. You cannot access Harvard’s decision through it and if you did not request the email notification, you wait for snail mail. Read what the Admitted Students Portal says:

You must use your last name and Admissions assigned Access Code to access this site.

Please note: This site does not provide admissions decisions. It is a portal with information for admitted students only. If you requested an email decision, it will be sent to the email address on file.

If you have forgotten your Admissions ACCESS CODE, click here to have it sent to your email address on record.

Notes regarding Email Decisions

Emails will be sent to Freshmen applicants after 5pm EST on Thursday, March 29th. Due to the large number of emails being sent it could take a few hours before the email will be delivered to your inbox.

Each year, close to 5% of our emails bounce. If you do not receive the email, you may call the Admissions Office on Friday, March 30th to learn your decision. We reserve the right to provide the decision to the applicant and only the applicant.

We do not send duplicate decision emails.
