Hi Folks,
Please disregard the previous Harvard posting.I was told by a professor at Harvard today, Friday,Feb 6 that they just finished making the decision at 5pm this evening for both the PhD( Committee) and ThD (Div Sch.) applications.He said the next stage is for both the Chair of the Committee and the Dean of the Div Sch to decide on the number of the recommended admits they can support.He said due to the tight budget caused by the financial crisis, there would probably be between 10-12 admissions for the PhD and ThD combined.This is big drop since a total of 18 people enrolled last year.So keep your fingers crossed.I believe however that there should be hope for anyone who is shortlisted since most people who get into Harvard also get into Princeton and most end up choosing the latter.I know this happened last year.
