Yeah I got that too. Dee is offering an hour per day in the first week of January to accept calls (she gave her phone number) for feedback about decisions. Interesting.

HBS to put 100 more on WL, give limited feedback, and chose diverse peeps over strong peers, says DeeDee in pre D-Day msg, text and comments here https://is.gd/iGKJk

ahem, she gave A PHONE NUMBER, don't expect Santa to be in the Dept Store after Xmas, altho I agree this is a new development.

If anyone gets Feedback from Dee and wants to know what it means between the lines, send me an email at [email protected] --I know how to interpret Dee talk. Take total notes of your convo, sometimes the real Dee is in one or two hidden words, or mercurial deviation fr. the script.

Good luck all you R1ers. Be thankful that you had your act together enough not to be applying R2 like some of us unlucky souls. 3.5 months to go :lol:

I can't login to my account. Anybody else experiencing the same issues? Are there hours outside which the access is closed?

I tried Firefox 3.6 on Mac and Win7, as well as IE 8 on Windows 7.

Do we all find out at noon EST, or will they be making phone calls prior to that time?

After pulling out half of my hair, I realized that my username is not "padawanofthegmat" but some impossible to memorize stuff that looks like "R8436KX12".

Do you also have to use that stupid login to get into your account?

I'm certain I provided a real and legible username upon creation of the account.

Yes, HBS and Stanford use what's essentially a PIN (alphanumeric code). I had the same issue earlier today with Stanford (trying to use my username from other apps).

Thank you oneofmany for your post. Indeed, for Stanford and Harvard we must use this strange PIN in place of our username to log in. In fact any application that uses applyyourself services requires this PIN. But it's not clearly stated during registration.

The submission status has changed a bit (the sentence that said that the status will change on the notification date disappeared) but there is no decision yet...
