sociology27 Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 The last couple of years Harvard has done interviews at the end of January. But so far this year, nothing has been posted of interviews, acceptances, or rejections. Anybody have any idea what's going on? Is it possible they're just gonna skip interviews this year? Or, perhaps, have people been interviewed without anyone on this board posting anything? speculate with me!
hobokennojokin Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Seconded! Also very curious as to what's going on with Harvard.
felicidad Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I just started an e-mail to Harvard's DGS. Then I closed it because: 1) Such e-mails are inevitably annoying. 2) I know the answer will take at most another two weeks. 3) Knowing the timeline won't make the day - 2 weeks go by any faster. So instead, I wait. As my mother says, "Keep crazy to yourself."

We need something like that... gilmoregirl1010 1

Scrabble2 Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 I bit the bullet yesterday and learned that decisions have not gone out but will in the "near future."
felicidad Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I bit the bullet yesterday and learned that decisions have not gone out but will in the "near future." My bet is by the end of this week? Any takers?
jenjenjen Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I bit the bullet yesterday and learned that decisions have not gone out but will in the "near future." Sooo decision decisions? As in no interviews? Or is that still a question mark...
felicidad Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Harvard Soc on the results page. *holds breath*
sociology27 Posted February 15, 2012 Author Posted February 15, 2012 And it looks like it's from yesterday? huh!? And only one? Can someone step up and claim it with info. like who it came from and when?
felicidad Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 I'm typically not one to call troll. Maybe someone pestered the DGS into giving them the decision early.
bubbaface Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 But trolls are so cute! They have that crazy hair. And sometimes a jewel in their belly!
largo Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Have we heard anything from Harvard yet? I just wanna know for sure even if I was rejected. This wait is killing me!
odeta Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Have we heard anything from Harvard yet? I just wanna know for sure even if I was rejected. This wait is killing me! it's killing me too...I haven't get any notification from the US schools, I admitted into Oxford earlier, but rejected by UCSB. I am really confuesd
sociology27 Posted February 16, 2012 Author Posted February 16, 2012 alright, somebody has to claim that acceptance. NYU and Harvard are giving me heart attacks the past few days. And Northwestern punched me in the chin. So I need some more info.
flowerblitz Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 I can't believe someone was bold enough to call Harvard. Can you call again and ask about me too?
odeta Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 I can't believe someone was bold enough to call Harvard. Can you call again and ask about me too? and me ~please!!!
Scrabble2 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Anybody to claim the second admittance? Since the program called this person, I am curious about their experience. In any case, congrats to those who have been accepted!
splitends Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I got an acceptance via email February 11 without ever hearing anything about an interview. I'm not sure that that means they're done contacting people, though. I wouldn't give up hope just yet if you're still waiting...
felicidad Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Splitends, did you post on the results board? I usually assume that once three or more acceptances go up on the results board that the first wave of admittances have gone out. Btw, when's the visit day?
splitends Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I just discovered this site while scouring the internet for advice on how to choose between grad schools, and I have to admit that I don't know what the results board is or why I would post on it...care to explain? The visit day is March 27.
felicidad Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 At the top of the page, there are two links. One says "Results Survey" and that's what people here use to follow acceptances and rejections. The other says "Submit Results." There you can submit the decision you received, how you received it, etc. So what are your research interests, splitends?
RefurbedScientist Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Anyone else just get a cryptic rejection email from Harvard?
