I suspect that the Harvard acceptances might not yet have been notified, whereas waitlisted have, only because waitlists are the department's own shortlists, but acceptances must be approved by the Graduate School, and so maybe, especially since admissions are uncertain this year, the department/POIs are holding out until final approval by the Graduate School before notifying their accepted students. On the one hand, hard to believe that no acceptances would post in the Results, but then again, only a small fraction of total applicants post results anyway, so the 6 people, as you say, could simply not be on GradCafe.

Re: Harvard – On the one hand, I feel like someone would have posted in the results forum by now if the accepted students were notified, so maybe the acceptances have not gone out yet, or at least not all of them (if it falls to one's POI to reach out before official notifications). On the other hand, it seems unlikely that waitlisted people would be notified by the DGS but not the accepted students. Guess we'll find out soon either way.

Just wondering whether it matters one way or another if we send a thank you email at all. Is it impolite not to?
