<p>@Bemusedfyz the office isn’t that mysterious… It’s really just mixed opinions of ppl. And one can easily intern or work in it</p>
<p>What are all of you guys planning on concentrating in?</p>
<p>I’ll go first, computer science!! 
</p>
<p>Edit: Someone has got to help me with the emojis</p>
<p>hoping to do a joint concentration in English and Econ, and maybe if I have time attempt to start studying Mandarin…and yeah I feel you with the emojis… 
</p>

<p>compsci :x </p>

too bad im XY</p>
<p>@Lanie49 No problem! Haha I just got it from this thread! One person posted that a person he or she knew got recruited as an athlete and that her likely letter stated the 11th, and another person called and confirmed with the admissions office.</p>
<p>Though this isn’t an official major or concentration, I’m planning to study arts administration. I’m most likely going to major in English.</p>
<p>Does harvard give weight to the selected major? I know it says the admissions process is holistic, but still.</p>
<p>I’m just really excited to prove everybody wrong who said I’d never get in. However if I don’t get in… HAHAHA. Honestly, I forget about the whole shebang until I check this forum everyday. Also I have no idea what to concentrate in, because I know what I enjoy studying, but there are so many options I’ve never been exposed to in high school, and I definitely want to do some exploring. I’m totally in love with writing though. Writing for the Daily Crimson is something I think about on the reg. hahaha. God, I’m excited. Seriously hope Harvard sees my potential.</p>
<p>@skslxxbjk I don’t know for sure, I’ve never spoken to admissions about it, but I would assume that your selected concentration does matter at least a little because they have to make sure that students have a diversity of academic interests. More than concentration I guess (since some people instinctively select the least popular concentration on purpose because they think it gives them a small advantage), harvard must at least have some sense from your essays, teachers, or otherwise, what you are interested in studying, and that definitely plays some sort of a role in admission decisions.</p>
<p>Does anyone know yet if the number of EA applicants went up or down this year?</p>
<p>@Burke1 I’m not sure if Harvard released their numbers, but Penn and Dartmouth received record-high early applicant numbers, while Yale and Brown’s numbers decreased slightly. I’m guessing Harvard’s increased slightly but not as significantly as Penn’s.</p>
<p>@oxoxhawja3xoxo @skslxxbjk (Man, your usernames are an adventure to type!) I was wondering about that, too! My prospective career is a highly specific, rather uncommon field of interest, so I specified my aspiration in my additional information section because it really is an important part of who I am, and of course, I also hoped that the uniqueness of it might give me a leg up. We’ll see how it all goes </p>
<p>What is with the emojis? </p>
<p>im predicting a significant increase in applicants this year along with a ~15% SCEA acceptance rate</p>
<p>@skslxxbjk - Stanford had more apps than H last year. Might be the case this year as well?</p>
