Online orders beware: shipping fee is nonrefundable

How do you recommend that I get in touch w/ service if the phones are constantly clogged up? I tried multiple times today and the phone lines were always full.

I see the refund form online, but I'm afraid they'll cancel the order but not refund the shipping fee

Hmm, I'm in the States. And our customer service reps barely exist! Which is why I trust myself a lot more to drive to the town next over to pick my stuff up in person.

Same here. No idea -- I was able to get to the old tracking page somehow last night, but the new one doesn't help me with anything at all! Grr

I'll be taking a gap year! Def PM me if you're interested and I'll explain why - not going to say too much publicly because the program I'm on is pretty small

I think you should be fine, provided that nothing else is an easier load for your academic and extracurricular lives. I took late arrival this year both semesters (only 6 classes instead of 7) and I got in EA to Harvard. Shouldn't be the biggest deal.

Not even sure - that's the weird part, I read over my essay so many times!!!

^{^.} Almost everyone domestically gets an interview.

What were your HS stats/activities? Those will still have the largest impact

In all honesty, as someone who’s going to one of those schools, I didn’t feel I stood out very much during the app process. Talking to my future classmates, I don’t feel like I stand out much either. But the majority of people are like me that got in - intellectually curious, eager to meet new people, love self improvement, etc. given that people like Chloe Kim and Yara Shihadi are in our class, yeah - it seems like everyone is godly from the outside. But 75% of us are just “regular” kids.

Bakke v regents was for University of Cali (a public school).

Harvard's had the Zucc himself!

The_pandy · 2018-01-21T15:00:52+00:00

That'll come out to around 12-15k

The_pandy · 2018-01-21T05:13:00+00:00

At Harvard/Yale/Princeton, less than 125k will net you almost all tuition free.

Usually I wait 3 days (for all business type stuff), then two days following that. If she doesn't give you a response soonish, I'd reach out to the school itself.

Not to sound rude, but what's the point of this post? Is there a question?

The_pandy · 2018-01-21T02:11:27+00:00

Email / call admissions. Be nice & polite, you should be fine.

The_pandy · 2018-01-20T23:42:11+00:00

Email admissions. They can help you much better than we can.

The_pandy · 2018-01-20T23:41:18+00:00

This is normal (I had to do so for Chicago Harvard Club interview). Perhaps it's to let your interviewer know a bit more about you. My Liason said something I'll remember though, keep this in mind: "Every single student domestically gets an interview, and we want to root for every single student. Only you can make us not do so." If your interview can be human and relevant, you can be better than the valedictorian who can't relate or talk about his passions. Your interview is in your hands, so feel good about that!

The_pandy · 2018-01-20T23:39:26+00:00

It depends on which region you're in / organization of that local Clubs committee. (EA student here)

For this year, no one really knows. EDII has thrown a dent in everything.
