Official Harvard SCEA Class of 2019 Applicants Thread

<p>@ivykid4thewin I will be in my AP English class and my teacher is pretty lax so I wouldn’t get my phone taken away but I think I’m going to wait until I get home. Or at least I’ll try lol.</p>

<p>@burke1 Why not tell them if you get in in December.</p>

<p>@burke1 @Jessdilla2015 No matter what happens people will know tomorrow, that’s what I get for telling people :P</p>

<p>And right now I should be finishing my term paper… but I can’t! I just want decisions!</p>

<p>I’m going to be teaching my kiddies how to caucus for Model UN tomorrow when it comes out :expressionless: </p>

<p>I think it’s really great that most of us are going to be active when we receive our decisions—especially given that MUN was a major part of my app. It makes it kinda cool knowing that Harvard wanted involved candidates and it’s definitely what they got :wink: </p>

<p>@jalebigirl‌ @galecollege‌ hahahahaha yodeling in sanskrit haha I had a laugh imagining that.</p>

<p>@memmsmom just 3 teachers and my GC. But nobody would be too surprised, I think, if I told them. But I think a few people would bet against me in their heads, so I didn’t tell any friends. Btw, you should totally tell us your daughter’s snapchat. </p>

<p>I have swim practice tomorrow but I’m thinking about not going since we get out at 6 and I won’t even be able to concentrate… I can’t wait another 2 unnecessary hours after waiting this long!!!</p>

<p>@memmsm @Karabekian‌ Yes! You can never have enough snapchat buddies</p>

<p>@ariboi I’ll be sitting on my ass when decisions come out. </p>

<p>@Karabekian @Memmsmom I wouldn’t be giving snapchat out on the internet…</p>

<p>My son is at a smaller school and Harvard’s decision comes out earlier than many other schools, so it would be all over the school very quickly. The school discourages students from engaging in any conversation about colleges (outside of close friends and family) until March so classmates don’t have hurt feelings, etc.</p>

<p>@Karabekian‌ Lolol at the snapchat. We might as well tonight seeing as none of us are sleeping </p>

<p>@Burke1 If it is school policy then I suppose it would be prudent for your son to keep it to himself, to respect the school. I personally don’t see why other children would have their feelings hurt.</p>

<p>@Karabekian Haha I would also love to have the Snapchat!</p>

<p>@ivykid4thewin‌ I’m going to be in rehearsal for my a cappella group. And I really can’t miss it, because we have three concerts on Friday. O.o I’m debating whether to slip out of class and check or to wait until I get home.</p>

<p>@jalebigirl‌ I’m laughing so hard about the yodeling in Sanskrit.</p>

<p>@Burke1‌ I’m going to tell my close friends, but I’m going to try to keep it pretty private until March. However, I go to a small private school, so word might get around.</p>

<p>@calliemoon11‌ roommates? :wink: </p>

<p>We’re almost there guys. Best of luck to everyone. A bunch of my close friends are coming over as I check the site for my decision because they’ve been with me the whole way. Are you guys checking alone or will you have an audience?</p>

<p>@jalebigirl‌ I’d match it with loud, off-key operatic singing. ;)</p>

<p>@phrostedup‌ I have no idea what to do. I can either check (hopefully) alone at school or at home with my family an hour and a half after decisions are released. Decisions are difficult.</p>

<p>@phrostedup Honestly, I don’t think I’d like to open it with an audience. I feel like that would make the entire process artificial - I’d be half-acting no matter the result</p>

<p>Given the probability of deferral, I can’t fathom why somebody would want an audience with him/her when he/she checks the decision. Like imagine you’re in that audience. How awkward is that? You know you’re gonna be saying “there, there it’s okay you’re not out of the race yet!” or some such variant over and over.</p>

<p>@phrostedup Come to think of it, I will actually be tutoring an underclassman when the decision is released. I might open in front of my tutor, but a rejection might make him lose faith in me, so I guess I will play it by ear.</p>
