My interviewer was also young and we definitely bonded, he was a cool guy. As to what you can do now, I am unaware of any supplemental application stuff that you can do at this point - I guess all you can do is cross your fingers lol. That's what I did. I remember after I submitted the application and had my interview, I just tried to keep my mind on other things besides college applications, keep your grades up, stay involved on campus, and get ready for April 1st!! I am sorry I can't be of much more help but I think if you really spent time on your application and the interview went well, then things are looking good. Remember, no matter what happens, you are going to do GREAT. I know this because you have made it this far and you are definitely on point if you're checking out the CSO blog. Let me know once you find out! Maybe Khadijah and I will be showing you around campus in the spring! Excellent! My interviewer was also young and we definitely bonded, he was a cool guy.

I went on my interview last Friday. My interviewer was great! He was funny and the whole thing was stress free. I was wondering if you could give me any pointers or tips on getting in to Harvard. Ive obviously already sent my application but is there anything I can do after that? I see that you and I come from very similiar households and financial situations.
