The Harvard Waitlist Waiting Room 2014 Thread

<p>Hey I just checked in on this forum and wanted to tell those remaining on the list - you are still on the list because someone from admissions is still advocating for you every time a spot opens up! I was admitted off 3 waitlists last year, all in May & June, and ended up matriculating at Harvard. So take heart - there is a reason you are still on the list - they are not just stringing you along. It doesn’t matter how late you are admitted - once you’re in, you’re in!</p>

<p>Thanks for the words of encouragement, miakoukla. </p>

<p>When exactly were you admitted to Harvard? Late or early June?</p>

<p>I couldn’t agree more with miakoukla. I was the last one (I mean I got a call in late August from Georgetown Med saying if I could get to registration by 9 the next morning I was in–I drove all night) and ended up being valedictorian. I opened my speech my saying “You remember how the Bible says ‘the last shall be first’? Well, everyone, here I am.” No one in my class ever knew until that moment my story of the phone call. If Harvard takes you, they want 100%</p>

<p>I was admitted to Harvard in late June and I mean late - in the 20s - can’t remember exact date.</p>

<p>So, any emails :slight_smile: ?</p>

<p>Reject here…</p>

<p>Rejected. I guess I’ll just go to Princeton.</p>

<p>Yeah, Cambridge here I come…</p>

<p>Just got the rejection email. See you on the other side.</p>

<p>Ah, the sweet sting of rejection. Off to Northwestern in September! It’s been real, y’all. Good luck!</p>

<p>Rejected. I’m going to Cornell. Congratulations to those who got in…not sorry to have attempted the Harvard waiting list, but very excited about spending this Fall in Ithaca…Enjoy your Summer!</p>

<p>Good luck next year guys! I wish you all the best!</p>

<p>Rejected - glad it came today instead of in a month’s time. Penn’s looking better and better!</p>

<p>My only regret is not applying to more schools, such as Princeton, Stanford, and MIT. But I’m so excited for next year anyway! Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Reeeeeejected.</p>

<p>My daughter just got her rejection email too.</p>

<p>rejected. hello dartmouth :)</p>

<p>STILL NO EMAIL…I’m going crazy here. And I can never call admissions because I have work until 6 and apparently the office closes at 5?</p>

<p>rejected here.</p>

<p>Rejected!!</p>

<p>If you haven’t gotten a rejection email, I imagine you’re still on the extended waitlist.</p>

<p>My kid finally got the rejection email today. Glad it’s over. Onto Princeton (which is a better fit anyway). GO TIGERS!</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone. It’s been fun hanging out with you all.</p>
