Ha ha, we've gotten off to a perfect start. A vague, hesitant report, and then the user vanishes.
Anyway, it's been fun waiting with you all.
Edit: Even better, she/he returns below...and is somewhat less vague!

Any news?
Are decisions really coming out today or did we all get trolled hard core...
I'm wondering the same thing...
I would greatly appreciate a consensus on this, so that I can stop refreshing this screen...
maybe someone should call admissions?
not to be creepy, but looking through some of @yououous past posts they look legit
Agreed. I think MSTP decisions usually come out in the morning, and then other decisions are released in the afternoon (based on past threads). HST and dual program interviewees will probably hear in the next couple of hours, then NP-only a couple hours after that. Good luck to everyone!
is the decision time based on which programs you interviewed at or which ones you applied to? (say you applied HST & NP and only got an NP interview, for example)

How would anyone know that?
I'm not an expert, and I don't think we have any data to support either, but I'd believe that it's dependent on the ones you interviewed for.
My logic being that the Harvard Admissions team most likely moves you (the applicant) over from one category bin to another bin (i.e. HST&NP --> NP), and thus will treat you as being a part of that bin for the rest of the cycle.
But, that's just how I would do it...
If it's really happening in the next few hours...here we go!
To qualm any anxiety and reduce any neuroticism, we just got official word from the admission committee that decisions for all programs will come out today. They will likely not come all at once - decision notices may continue until the evening. Good luck all! Try not to refresh your E-mails too much...
Do they also send rejections today?
Yes - all decisions come out today
I'm sorry for the anxiety. I don't know if it'll help but here was what I got: Accepted to NP. Waitlist MSTP. Didn't apply to HST!
Congratulations all the same!
Actually to clarify, we are only sure about acceptances. Historically, I believe waitlists and rejections came out the day after, so if you don't hear back, you may have to wait another day unfortunately.
when should NP only hear back?
Oh wow that's rough...I had no idea D:
I don't know for sure if I'll go if I get in. I liked the school, but I wasn't crazy about it. I guess if need the second look weekend to sell me a little (which is what the students at the pizza dinner told me happened to them).
I don't wanna go just because it's Harvard though...seems like a quick way to get depressed...

They definitely don't try to woo you the way some other schools do on interview day. Probably because their retention rate is so ridiculously high as is.
Honestly, this is about how I felt, but everywhere I go, people say something like...
"You'll regret it if you don't."
"You'll be doing yourself a disservice if you give up an opportunity like that."
"Think of all the doors it'll open!"

Just saw an email pop up in my inbox and got super woozy and flustered. I check it aaaand.....not HMS. *sigh*
Yeah, same here...my boyfriend emailed me a buzzfeed quiz to find out if I'm more Emma Watson or more Emma Stone. We'll be having a talk later.
Hahahaha oh goodness.
My email came around 12:30 and was for both NP and HST (in the same email)!
Ha ha, is there some sort of superstition that people who are accepted can't say so outright? In any case it sounds like you're in, so congratulations!
!!!
right? Say accepted!!! Tell us what's up!!!
Palms are sweaty. Weak arms are heavy. Vomit on my sweater already.
who else is at work all day being extremely unproductive?? because i am!
He's nervous, but in his inbox he stays calmly waiting to get the decision, so he keeps on refreshing.
Can't keep my heartbeat steady.
Accepted NP.
Best of luck to all of you!
Best of luck to all of you!

May I ask when your email came in? A friend is waiting for an NP decision but is away from her computer.
