Guys, as tough as it is to focus, you gotta do your work today and not linger too much on this forum. The lost productivity is killing our economy.

Hi Everyone,

I recently heard a rumor that decisions might come out tomorrow rather than today. So try not to worry too much if you don't hear back by this afternoon!

This is right. I know a guy that knows a guy that knows a girl. Enjoy your Monday, you're all incredibly intelligent people and the best of luck to you.

 

[RegularKID]

Trying so hard not to check this thread. My heart beats so hard when I'm about to.

Can you tell us more about this rumor?

 

[jlim46]

Hang in there guys! I hope it gets released soon! Good luck to everyone! Btw, I hope that rumor is a troll lol

 

[dancer150]

Glad to know that I'm not the only one anxiously checking! Trying to take deep breaths...

 

[cerealscientist]

Checking this like every 5 minutes lol

She doesn't even go here haha jk neither do I

 

[phylosopher]

how late would they start sending decisions?

edit: just cracked open a Chinese fortune cookie: "the road before you is long."

 

[dancer150]

I got my interview invite on a Friday back in October, so I have no idea when the emails from the admissions office go out, so it's going to be a rough week haha

[Meredith92]

okay we can make it one more day!!

 

[dancer150]

Haha, it's a date...I'd say we're off the hook around like 4 each day

 

[dliebs89]

So at this point do we know anything besides Joanne McEvoy's email from a few weeks back? (planning to release decisions during "1st week of march")?

Hmm I actually never got such an email

 

[dliebs89]

Hmm I actually never got such an email

It was part of the email that went out asking interviewed applicants to input their social security numbers on the secondary website. I think the email only went to people who hadn't already done so. The end of the email read: "At this point all interviews for HMS have been completed, and we are busy with many committee meetings. We plan to announce decisions during the first week of March. Thank you for coming to meet with us, and I wish you the very best of luck!"

 

[termitechips]

I spoke with someone in the admissions office and they mercifully told me they expect to send decisions out tomorrow.

you're a true hero. Thanks!

One more sleepless night guys!!

I looked in the old threads and two years ago some acceptances went out around 6:00pm

I spoke with someone in the admissions office and they mercifully told me they expect to send decisions out tomorrow.

Thanks for checking!

 

[wangers5270]

good luck everybody!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Thanks

 

[Kinch]

I just checked my email to find a new email titled "admissions decision" ............ but it wasn't from Harvard. Not cool.

"I got into a medical school today...but it wasn't Harvard. #firstworldproblems" haha

 

[Kinch]

"I got into a medical school today...but it wasn't Harvard. #firstworldproblems" haha

I was actually rejected.. but thanks!

 

[surely]

I was actually rejected.. but thanks!

Hopkins? 'Cause me too.

 

[termitechips]

I was actually rejected.. but thanks!

sorry to hear that. (btw, joke was in good fun)

 

[Kinch]

No worries, good news tomorrow will heal that wound pretty quick, haha.

 

[dancer150]

Thanks so much for calling so now at least we know there's an end in sight to this wait...Jeez, I can't believe I've been waiting like 5 months. I'm sure it's been a long, rough time for all of us

 

[Espadaleader]

Yeah, I've waited 6 months. There is no reason why waits should be this long.

 

[jadelynn54]

I wonder why they decided tomorrow and not today. It's been a torturous wait and they totally ruined a nice pattern of sending decisions the first March Monday.

 

[dliebs89]

It's a test of mental fortitude. Those who don't have heart attacks from the wait are capable of withstanding the physical and emotional stresses of the school.

 

[UChiRM]

Because they can!

edit: "sigh"

 

[CyrusMD]

Looks like the pattern lives on! Just received an email (timestamped at 5:03pm EST), accepted into NP! Didn't interview HST, interviewed NP in january.

Normally a lurker, but wanted to relieve some anxiety. See you at REVISIT!

 

[carlton]

:troll:

 

[nephron19]

:troll:

I hope so Refreshed my email then saw an email from "Office of Admissions.." freaked out...turns out to be an invitation to speak to high school counselors at a conference about my school

 

[carlton]

I hope so too 🙂 Just doesn't quite make sense. Why notify starting at the end of the day? Why start (presumably) with NP? I think I'll need to see a screenshot before I'm convinced. Or maybe I'm just bitter because my inbox is still empty 😛

At any rate, this is what i'm telling myself:

 

[bestlife4others]

:troll:

At least some traditions never change.

 

[nephron19]

Edit: well, good thing I'm not done with season 2 yet. More House of Cards tonight

 

[medicalhope]

Hopefully we will all know within 24 hours! This is worse than waiting for the MCAT score...

 

[dancer150]

I got a heart attack because my email had nothing new.

Trolls 👎

 

[Stillworking93]

On the brighter side... I'll be on a plane to Spring Break if we find out about NP after 5 pm tomorrow
