Harvard status check?

[georgica2]

Does anyone know if there's a status check page for the Harvard application? I couldn't find any information on the application FAQ. Is the only way to check the status of supplemental materials by contacting the office directly?

Yes, you have to call directly. The number should be on the admissions website. When I called, they were able to tell me very easily that my materials were in.

Thanks for the reply. After searching every imaginable part of the site, I figured that contacting them was the only way. I wonder why they make it so much harder for themselves -- surely it would be easier to have a status check page on the online application site (like virtually every other program has) than to be bombarded by every applicant.

I'm applying there for Comp Lit and haven't found a way to check status either.. If we all agree that this is the case, what's up with the latest results page entry of the stellar History applicant claiming to have been:

"Denied for MA/Phd program. In shock. (Logged into website and saw status)."
