Admitted off the waitlist the day before the US national decision deadline. Shocked and over the moon! To future applicants to this program who may be browsing the related posts: personally, I don't think there is a clear relationship between contacting POI and the chances of an offer since I've heard about successful examples on either side. I'd say it's really up to you! But I also tend to agree with a post below: do everything you could during the application season, so that you'd have no regrets!

Learning about the waitlist news back in February, then contacted the program coordinator in March to receive a brief response. Still a week towards the deadline of April 15th and I am really hoping for something like a miracle happens.

Recieved a fax from Harvard, they told me my application was incorrectly flagged as a rejection. This is the happiest that I've ever been this week. When I saw the Harvard Letterhead, I began to weep—the stogie that I had previously lit and left unattended had filled the room with a rolling smoke, causing the aforementioned tears. I could barely see through the smoke to make out the typeface that Harvard uses. EB Garamond—typical. Most people don't take the time to notice these kinds of things, but when you get as many acceptances as I do, you begin to appreciate the small stuff. I don't plan on accepting anytime soon—I have a meaty handful of acceptances, and I've got my pudgie little fingers in a handful of waitlists. I plan on using them all as leverage so I can get Harvard to reimburse me for the cost of moving my man-servant to Cambridge. Has anyone heard from Rice? Signed, Lian Brieter 10a, 7w,0r,1p.

Waitlisted in February, and still haven't given up my faint hope in case a place might miraculously open up before April 15. Congratulations to the admits! I'd appreciate it if you let them know your decision in the upcoming days.
