Regal4.1

Hey! Another Harvard waitlist member here. I called them this morning, and they said the waitlist was fairly short. They already over-accept, and they stressed that they would not 1) offer a spot on a waitlist to someone less admissible than the admitted, and 2) that they didn't like to put many people on the waitlist and string people along who really had no chance to be accepted off it. But yes, my impression is 6 or 7 people have to decline for them to take from our pool. And that they're relying on past yield rates (per the norm). It really comes down to who declines. They would not disclose ranking and/or other ways they organize the waitlist. My fairly baseless guess is they'd go off of filling underrepresented research interests.
