From previous years it looks like Harvard PiN always sends all their invites in one big batch so I'm not holding out much hope for them. MIT seems to trickle on at least until the end of December, so still crossing my fingers on that one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think im just holding out hope because i worked in two labs there in undergrad so it would be cool if they came through for me but who knows. I also applied to the BBS program as well and I dont think they have sent anything yet.. so fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine this morning, and looking at the results page someone received an interview yesterday, so maybe they are still sending them out? It didn't seem like a mass email. glialstar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glialstar Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Can someone explain to me the cons of asking programs if all decisions have been sent out, when you see some already have? Ive heard its best to just wait until they send rejections or at least a couple months after submission, but in this crazy state of anxiety Im wondering what is the downside to asking? Will it look badly, can they switch your decision, is it just improper, etc. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
applicant09 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Does anyone know if Harvard PIN is officially done with sending interview invites? I haven't received one but am holding on (maybe too much) to the hope of it. Also congrats to everyone who has received interviews so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipettestan Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Also for Harvard's PiN, I noticed from the results page that the majority of invited students are international. Maybe....just maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're as hyper-selective as Harvard, admission is kind of a crapshoot. Btw congrats on MIT, I'm still holding out hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still haven't received the "official" letter. And that's another good point & a good way to look at it. Hoping there's still more good news in the next couple of days!
