Just checked my email. Received an A + REACH nomination at 10:05 AM. SPEECHLESS [emoji24]. Does anyone know what percent of people who get nominated for REACH actually get it?

For the benefit of future people. n=1 here got the R and was prompted to input SSN and immediately did. I would guess that they are not correlated.Right, but is there any data on people who said they did not get the email but forgot to put in their SSN? Is the data varied for them or did all of the people who reported not getting an email but having not entered their SSN get rejected? If any of you sleuths can figure that out, we would be so grateful haha

WL this morning. I'm not seeing too many WL reports, so telling myself that is a good sign for possible later acceptance. Though realistically probably not, since it's Harvard.

What's the chance for re-apply? Will the bar be much higher than the first apply due to the potential bias?Congratulations to everyone admitted! Current MS3 here happy to answer any questions.

Adding to this—I never received the SSN email and also never entered my SSN, and I was accepted this morning.
So, for the benefit of future applicants, there is absolutely no correlation whether you receive the SSN email or not (even if you never submitted your SSN)
Can't really speak for a re-apllicants chance, but I would imagine it would be more difficult given that there would be a prior comparison to your old application that can be made during review.What's the chance for re-apply?

it depends on financial need for final amount! i think we’d only get all the goods if our family income is below 50000? or 80000? but it is for all 4 years!does REACH cover everything? like tuition and housing and the whole shebang for four years?

Anyone have any insights on WL. Whether it be movement stats or best steps?

Seems like it’s pretty good each year—they don’t send out many WL at all and previous years have mentioned the committee reporting 30-40 total WLs.Anyone have any insights on WL. Whether it be movement stats or best steps?
Here’s an article from someone who got off the HMS WL a few years ago, I hope it helps a bit?

I remember that I was having trouble deciding and didn't pull the trigger until the last day. If anyone here is still unsure about the decision in the final hours here, DM me and I'd be happy to talk about my experience at HMS. I'll try to check my DMs throughout the day.

Could people specify if they are withdrawing Pathways or HST? Would be great for WL folks!
Best of luck to you all. I recognize there are so many other important factors besides school name.

Any idea when WL movement might start? Also can a current admitted student let us know how many are in the admitted gc?

Based on posts these last few years, there is some movement in the next week or so and nothing after that.
