Man what total bummer.. no email for me, and it's about 5pm eastern time so I think it's definitely over. What hurts the most is that I got my rejection from UCSF today too. **** this process straight to hell.
 
Accepted to NP by e-mail at 3:22 PM

Dream come true. Good luck everyone
 
I'm in awe...accepted...new pathway...3/16/2009.

woot! :woot:
 
Anyone know when the first day of classes for Harvard class of 2013 is? Alternatively, when do all the prerequisites have to be completed by?
 
Congrats to everyone who was accepted. If you have any questions about HMS and especially the NP, let me know. I am graduating in a couple of months and can provide candid and honest answers to your questions.

Again, congrats!
 
For all of us who haven't received an email yet... does that mean waitlist/rejection? Is it conceivable that they are doing it in batches? It makes more sense to me for them to have emailed everyone simultaneously... meaning dunskies.

Congrats to everyone who got an email though!

All of the acceptance emails mentioned here were received at approximately the same time, so I think it is safe to say that the rest of us are now waitlisted/rejected (TBD when the mail arrives).

It means waitlist/rejection. Harvard said they would be sending out ONE big batch of acceptances and that would be it. I didn't get an email either so I am in the same boat as you.
 
i come home from ballin or three hours to find an acceptance letter in my inbox. IN BYTCHES😍
 
Does anyone know if they also email WL/rejected applicants, or is that by snail mail?
 
did anyone get into both hst and new pathways??? is it possible to do so?
 
Does anyone have their USNews/ MSAR on hand? I just gave my copy away...
I was wondering if we could look up # of admitted students ... and figure out how many people generally get off the waitlist using the class size of 165.

Your help is appreciated!

:luck:

They accept about 80-100 more than their seats I believe. That doesn't mean that they take them off waitlist though. Might have accepted 200 today or something.
 
At 3:22 pm I got the best email of my life! HMS new pathways 2013 baby! Can't wait to meet y'all at revisit weekend!

HMS!
 
Congratulations to everyone admitted. Looks like HMS finally caught up with the times and moved to email notification. About time!

If anyone has questions about HST v. NP, the HST program, surgery or neurosurgery at Harvard, or research opportunities at HMS (NP or HST), feel free to contact me.

Congrats again, and welcome to HMS. 🙂
 
does anyone know when/if scholarships are offered?

Well, I guess?

Nevermind Harvard. After reading his mdapps comments I find it quite frightening that he will be practicing medicine PERIOD.


Jealously won't get you into Harvard. Only being awesome will.

haha...its an anonymous online forum dude chill out and get a sense of humor...

maybe ill be your doctor one day, and youll never, ever know :scared:
 
These pre-meds totally have no sense of humor and take things too damn seriously. I guess they are so used to clawing each others' eyes out as they sought to climb on top of each other to escape the well of podunkness into the light of Harvard.

Now that they see us in the light, they are bitter in their defeat. And it must also suck to be blind and trampled upon.

but thats the scariest part! You may seem well-manered and respectable in person but this is the kind of stuff that you're REALLY thinking.

Nothing that you say is funny... its just immature

You may think this forum is anonymous but your classmates are judging you right now. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise

Keep talking! I think you're perfect for each other
 
Can we please keep this thread on topic? I'd hate to see yet another one derailed...

If you want to duke it out, do so in private. This isn't a gladiator match, so there's no reason to put on a spectacle.

Any news from people on acceptance packets yet?

Veasel, you must have an naive view of reality. The stuff we post on the forum is not what we are REALLY thinking. What we really think is far more dark and evil.

You think all your classmates are angels who never take a dump or have dark secrets? Aside from all the nasty stuff in EVERYONE's subconscious like the various neuroses, dark thoughts, maybe even an Oedipus complex here and there that Freud and Jung have clearly documented, we are all walking hypocrits who hide our dirty laundry everyday. Those who deny it must have sunconsious thoughts so dark that it scares the crap out of them. It reminds me of a person I once knew who said he never masturbates or looks at porno as if that stuff was so beneath him. He turned out to have the biggest stash of fetish porn I have ever seen.

And classmates passing judgements on others? That sounds so friggin hilarious and self-righteous that I spilled my coffee on my acceptance email.

Veritas mofos.

lol...perhaps...i think youd be just as shocked and appalled if you knew that stuff that most ppl were REALLY thinking. but such is human nature.

and perhaps i am immature. but you chose to play God and question my competence of being a physcian based a few obnoxious posts on an anonymous online forum; leads me to believe you are illogical. id rather be immature, than illogical.

and if my future classmates judge me negatively based on this forum then i dont want to be friends with them anyway. lol, i have enough friends, who appreciate my sense of humor and think i am quite funny.

sorry that u dont..haha...but i dont care...i got into harvard :luck:

yo he started it!

syke nah, no word over here. got another email today for alliance weekend. gonna be frigggin sahweet.
 
I am wondering if waitlist is given out by email or mail?
 
so i've been spectatin' and

damn, you kids all need to chill out, this process is SUCH a crapshoot, I got into NP but got straight up rejected from my state school penn state and waitlisted at the majority of my schools. luck of the draw kiddos. at the interview day, some MS said if you get an interview you're qualified, gettin' in is just gettin' lucky

besides there's no such thing as "the best" school, it all depends on the individual. for all the people on the waitlist, best of luck, I withdrew today, either Mayo or UCLA for me unless maybe . . .

to all the kids w/ hms and hopkins acceptances, DAMN I hope you all go to harvard, get me off the waitlist!

Reading the last bit of this thread makes me wonder what the hell is going on in the Harvard adcom meetings. Did you guys threaten their families or something? I sure hope you don't truly believe the horrible nonsense that's being spouted on here.

threaten is such a strong word...i prefer 'gentle persuasion' in the form of leaving bleeding animal heads under the covers.

You got rejected from Penn State as an instate applicant with a 41T MCAT and 3.99 GPA but you got accepted into Harvard, Mayo, UCLA, and University of Virginia?!? Wow, that is pretty f*ckin crazy... :scared:
 
Yea this thread is starting to disgust me. You are all the top of the top of this medical school process and this thread looks like something out of PerezHilton's website.

You are about to be Harvard doctors--start acting like it!
 
eh, were human. im no changed from now and 12 hrs ago. maybe after 4 years of an HMS education ill turn into this immaculate perfect human being that we all strive to be.

but until then, if sum1 take a cheap shot at me in an anonymous online forum. i hide behind my veil of anonymity and respond 😛

for the reference, all i said was *in bytches*...haha clearly a joke...if that means i shouldnt be doctor..kiss my azz...BYTCHES hahahahaha :laugh:

If you didn't apply, why are you stalking this thread? weird.
 
He's stalking this thread because everyone applies to Harvard at heart. Those who didn't officially apply here just didn't think they could make the cut in the first place.

Hey, not everyone gets to play in the NBA with the all-stars. Sometimes you gotta settle for streetball.
