No. Until Harvard University President calls you personally and confirm your acceptance, you are not a student.

You’re good bro

You are not a student until you matriculate. But, your spot is secure. Right now adcom is heads down interviewing R2 applicants.

Even thought I didn’t get any kind of confirmation?

Got picked up for a client yesterday around 1 and was not only asked to stay late last night but to also finish my workpaper today. Prior to this no one I’ve heard at my firm has ever had to work on a Saturday. Oh, and this was my first week. Am I wrong to be annoyed with this?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
