Yo-

Any good bostonians/cambridge people who got nothing in the mail today? As all the rejections/acceptances are sent out @ the same time, I'm a little confused at having a mailbox in cambridge and getting nil today.

umm..here in brookline 10 steps to HMS and nothin' in the mail here either..sniffle sniffle... 😱 🙁
 
Sparky Man said:
yeah, it'll be cool if at least some people who expect rejection get in! i think i'll survive if i see the small envelope, too. but no matter what, i'm going to be nervous when i check the mailbox!!

G'luck! You never know 🙂
 
getting anxious here in TX.

No letter yet. NP only. incomplete. can still logon to the financial aid website....

Matt, you actually don't need much luck 'cause you already know you got in but really, if anyone deserves to get in it is you. I wish you, more than anyone else that has gotten in or is waiting to, the very best. Patrick tells me all about your work and it is very, very impressive and real. You're clearly Harvard material and a leader.

Now, if I could only get over my most certain rejection....
 
Mateodaspy said:

That's a good sign. 🙂

I'm 99% sure that you'll be getting in, and 1% sure that I'll be in the same shoes. :laugh:

Congrats!

:luck:
 
Actually, one quick q:

Most post-interview decisions seem to NP only...what about HST?

Just want to know if I should be expecting one or two rejections. :laugh:

I won't believe anything until I get a letter. But thanks - though I know Harvard most definitely rejected outright some applicants that were clearly more qualified than myself.....


Did you make reservations for Vandy yet? when do you get in?
 
Sooooo.... now that you guys are in at HMS (congrats to all of you) and are sure you are going there, how about withdrawing your apps at other schools to give the rest of us schlubs a chance to get giddy? C'mon! Share the love! You've had yours! Let me have mine!
 
Hi all --

The mail just arrived here in Philadelphia....

I was accepted. (Still in shock) 🙂 NP, incomplete, could log-in to financial aid.

Best of luck to those waiting!
 
My friend's letter got sent to her permanent address in NY and it arrived this morning...just to feed the fires of speculation, she was waitlisted (NP only, incomplete, could not log on). Good luck to everyone!

CONGRATS!! I'm sure you're ecstatic right now! 😀

Oh boy, that's interesting. So "could not log on" doesn't keep you from making the waitlist! There's hope!

I still hope someone who couldn't log on gets in!! Congrats to your friend!

Thanks Dentotape! I am happy, but the prospect of taking Calc (which I need to do before orientation) is tamping down my joy. Anyone want to tutor me? 🙂

Good luck to you!
 
Sparky Man said:


AGREED!!! why isn't anyone hearing back? arrggh- i probably won't get anything in the mail today 🙁
 
Hmm... no log on but waitlisted. All hope is not lost. Given that the waitlisted people all received financial aid info in previous years that at least gives me a sliver of hope that the financial aid log on is also not 100%.

Good, so now I'll get to experience the full extent of sorrow when my rejection comes. I was a little worried this thread's speculation was going to rob me of that. And after all, isn't agonized waiting and sadness what we're all in this for in the first place? 😀
 
Yo-

I hate to add to the fray, but a friend of mine in new haven got zilch in his mail this morning...and I'm expecting to find nothing when I go to check mine...

Just out of curiosity, who else out there is waiting for HST only decisions? It seems like the majority of posters here are NP folks...

cheers

Are these decision letters going to people's "Preferred" AMCAS address, or "Permanent" ?

thanks

mine was sent to my preferred address so i assume that is the case for everyone else.

Yes, so true. We are stress junkees...who like to make ourselves puke! :barf:
 
let there be ANYONE who got in and wasn't able to log on to the fin aid website... 🙁

I am hoping for the same thing, but this is probably very unlikely. 🙁

All acceptees thus far have been able to log in.

Nothing today in NYC...
 
huh, weird.

I work a couple of buildings away from the HST office at MIT and am very tempted to pop in on Ms. Minasian to axe if this is standard fare for most years....
 
I just got my mail-- accepted!! It was sent to my preferred address in upstate NY.
Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Could you log in to the financial aid website?

NP or HST?

We, the presumed unfortunates, are collecting data here. It's the only source of hope. Please rather than simply announcing your certainly joyous news (followed by that hanting exclamation mark), include the necessary info. Please.

And congratulations.
 
Just received word that a friend has been accepted. She was NP, incomplete and could log in.

Was she in NC?

Still nothing out here in Texas!!!! =(
 
The lowdown:

Location: Philadelphia
Decision: Accepted
Program: NP & HST
Status change: Incomplete
Finaid logon: Yes...I got an error message similar to what others have reported.

Best of luck to those still waiting. If you live in the suburbs, mail may take an extra day or so to arrive, since I know one person in Philly suburbs that hasn't heard yet. Has anyone else heard back about their HST decision yet?

Congrats krelian!! The error message appears if you put in the dashes. can you log in if you leave them away? 😕 😕

She is in New York. Matt, your acceptance comes tomorrow, and we'll congratulate you then just as we are doing even now.

dwheeler, I'm also HST only, in Cambridge, and have not received anything. I just realized, though, that they might have sent it to my summer address... which they did for my interview schedule. This is why they need to do things by email. But I have already talked myself into believing that rejection is no big deal. So there. Good luck to you! Let us know if you hear anything and I'll do the same.

Rejected, no-log in, complete. Congrats guys, going to sleep it off

HST, NP, both?
 
Man, I'm already crushed.

I should be getting my rejection by tomorrow, but more likely on Saturday.

This one hurts, but I'll survive. 😳

...especially those who are also holding Cornell acceptances. I know...very selfish of me. 🙄

Good luck to all!
 
I feel like crying (ok, i did)

I've been pretty down, too.

But hey--you win some, you lose some.

True. When I went to penn, someone told us that although he's a professor of medicine at penn, he was rejected by the medical school when he applied!! interesting....

Here's to seeing the bright side of things! 👍

Hey,

I didn't get in, but I made the waitlist at Harvard!

Here's the critical data: incomplete, could not log in.

Good luck everyone!
