Does every one who applies to harvard get an interview? I'm asking this because i just have a 26 ACT score, and i thought that there was a minimun an individual needed inorder to even get an interview?

If there's someone closeby, I'm sure you would.

People applying from rural areas, for example, might not get one irrespective of their standardized test scores. I'm sure they realize that every applicant has his/her strengths and weaknesses, and if possible, I'm sure they'd contact you.

There is no minimum score needed to get an interview. If they find a Harvard alum in your area, then the Harvard alum will give you a call regarding setting up an interview. Harvard tries to set up interviews for everyone!

People named Huy Bui don't! Bwa ha ha

There will assuredly be an alumni interviewer in your area. Everyone gets an interview who wants one. But they wont' make or break your application.


I see that you're from New Orleans! What do you think of the area? Do you know anything about Tulane?

i still don't get why you hate new orleans. i guess it makes some sense because you live there. i hate my town. anyways, yeah, it's dirty, but there's nice stuff there, too, right? *looks unassured*
