what was your GPA?

If you do not have a DAT score, your application will not be reviewed. They make it plain and clear on their website that a DAT is required. They also conduct holistic reviews so GPA is not the only aspect considered. Do not start harassing people in this thread.
 
for those who got an interview, possible to share your stats?
 
Congrats to those who got interview invites! If possible, would you be willing to share when you submitted your application?
 
Hey guys, I was wondering if I should bother applying as a Canadian to Harvard? I recently got my dat scores back and I scored a 26AA, 24RC, 21PAT, 30GC, 25Bio and I have a 3.96gpa. I’d appreciate any honest feedback. I’m not too sure how selective they are for international students.

Also would it be too late in the cycle to apply currently if interviews are already being sent out?

If Harvard is a school you'd be interested in going to then I don't see any reason why you wouldnt apply, Go For It !

are they international friendly?
 
Hi! Does anyone know if Harvard sent out their second round of interviews yet? They typically say about a week after your first rounds.

Interviews only began a few days ago. Check out the SDN Interview Invite Tracker.

Hiii just bumping this up! Has anyone received the second round interview invites?
 
Hey does anyone know when we get the second round invite? Will it be after you complete your first round?

After the first round. My first round was the last week of September and I got the second round invite in the first week of October 1/2 weeks after my first one.

oh I see thank you!! did you go in-person for your second round?
 
Have any August submissions heard back regarding an interview? Thanks and good luck everyone! 🙂
 
If you received an interview, are you having problems opening the supplemental application doc. When I click the link, the page doesn't go through, and I have tried on several devices.

Also, can someone explain the 2 rounds of interviews? Is it two separate days because I have an interview at the end of November, and I cannot imagine there being enough time for another round before Dec 13.

I was able to open the document, but it was a bit finicky. Maybe try opening with an incognito window?

My first interview was on November 4, and I was told we would find out within a week if we made it to the second round. During the first interview, they mentioned which days the round 2 interview would potentially be scheduled for. I received my notification email two days later, and my round 2 interview is set for November 21. Hope that helps!

Did everyone who got a first round interview get a second round interview?

i didnt which is kinda making me second-guess all of my interview responses considering I hear they give second rounds to just about everyone...

I remember in my first interview one of the admissions directors said that there are always a few exceptions and some interviewees do not get second rounds. I took this to mean that some candidates do not make it past the first interview, but in hindsight it potentially could mean that some interviewees get a direct admit? I'm not completely sure.
 
Is it fair to assume if I haven’t got interviewed by now I’m probably out for the count :/

i think it means not everyone gets a second round, I do not think anyone gets a direct admit
