One thing to note is that HSDM is not where Harvard has its undergrad campus in Cambridge. HSDM is actually located in the Fenway area of Boston and it’s one of my favorite areas. It’s ideally located next to some of the best hospitals in the country such as Boston children’s, Brigham and Womens and Dana Farber to name a few. In regards to being close to the city center of Boston it is extremely close by both public transport and walking. HSDM itself is a medium sized building right next to the Harvard Medical which has a really nice yard/green space.
I received one just today!
Congrats Tea&Teeth, you're gonna do great!! Can I ask when you submitted?
Stats?
Their previous posts says 3.9 o/sGPA and 26AA, but expect great stats from all people getting interviews at Harvard. That’s not a distinguishing factor, that’s a basic requirement. The reason they got an interview is everything else in their profile/application
yes
I have, I'm at a 3.82 overall
At my interview, they told us we’d only have access to the Canvas page until the upcoming Monday. So you have access to it for about one week around your interview date!
Ah, I didn’t catch that during my interview or I forgot that they said that lol. Thanks for the reply!
I believe Harvard gives interviews through at least January because their DAT/information cutoff is December 1st! Stay hopeful!
Got an interview yesterday for Dec 11
Congrats on the interview! Can I ask when you submitted?
I submitted in late June
huge congrats
would you mind saying when you applied/app was complete?yes! I submitted June 16, but got the HSDM complete email July 16huge congrats
ahh that's the same time i submitted so hoping for the best. tysm for responding!!
Can you post your stats? GPA, DAT etc?
cGPA: 3.92
I received this email too!
Same! Was also wondering if it's some sort of glorified waitlist haha
Congrats on getting in at your first choice!!! May I ask which school you went with??
That's also so sick being able to say you declined to interview at Harvard haha definitely style points
That’s awesome that you can say you turned down an interview from Harvard!! Good luck with everything! May I ask when did you receive your interview invite and stats, if you’re willing to share?
Good luck to you too :>That’s awesome that you can say you turned down an interview from Harvard!! Good luck with everything! May I ask when did you receive your interview invite and stats, if you’re willing to share?
When is the interview date that you turned down?
It was for 1/7-1/8 !
