2024-2025 Harvard

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Heard some folks are leaning toward NYU or Penn. Harvard took 203 this year—if the usual 71.8% yield holds, around 146 will accept. So maybe ~20 spots open up off the waitlist, but it really depends year to year and by track (Pathways, HST, MD/PhD).

Verbatim from Mr. Macrophage in the Cornell thread: "Many yield rates are available in the admit.org master document. Here is the admit t20 reordered by yield rate. Cornell is bolded

1: Harvard (71.80%)
2: Stanford (58.06%)
3: UTSW (57.71%)
4: UCSF (56.47%)
5: Penn (56.36%)
6: Pittsburgh (54.61%)
7: Mayo Clinic (50.47%)
8: NYU (49.76%)
9: UCLA (48.61%)
10: Columbia (46.66%)
11: Michigan (44.09%)
12: Duke (43.50%)
13: Johns Hopkins (42.60%)
14: Mt. Sinai (39.55%)
15: Northwestern (39.40%)
16: Cornell (36.18%)
17: UChicago (35.86%)
18: WashU (35.02%)
19: Yale (34.77%)
20: Vanderbilt (28.19%)"
Do you know if it is 203 people across Pathways/HST/MSTP? It's a little confusing because people can hold acceptances to more than 1 one of these programs as well

Any more insight you can add? Would this affect current admits or just future applicants? Not going to H but I’m hearing whispers of this at other p/f schools…
I'm an (almost) fourth year here who is very involved in curriculum planning, and I would not let this be something that influences your decision. There is no indication of whether the grading system will change at all, it's all just discussion right now
