Harvard Admissions
It is no secret that Harvard undergraduate admissions are difficult.
Every year, the Harvard University admissions office declines to accept
thousands of students with perfect academic records. You can have a 4.0
grade point average and an SAT score well above 1500. It doesn't matter.
Unless you are a legacy student who has had family go to Harvard before,
or can prove to the Harvard admission office that there is something
special and unusual about you, forget about it – you just aren't getting
it.
That is why my friends were so incredulous when they found out that I
was applying to Harvard admissions. To them, it sounded pointless. I
have always been someone for impossible missions, and they thought it
was just another quixotic venture. You see, although my grades are very
good, they are far from perfect. Why would I be accepted to admissions
at Harvard when there are plenty of 4.0 grade point average students
that they decline? Nonetheless, it has been my dream to go to Harvard
for a long time. I knew that I had to find a way to get in one way or
another.
If there is one thing that I have going for me that other people don't,
it is my outstanding and interesting record of extracurricular
activities. There are many people applying to Harvard admissions who
have band practice, student government, and other things like that, but
few of them have done what I have done. My Harvard application lists
some of my accomplishments. I have won some national writing contests,
been the president of the national honor Society, and done many other
things of that order. Beyond that, however, I have started and run my
own business. How many people have that kind of practical, real-life
experience when they are graduating high school?
Ultimately, it doesn't really matter whether my Harvard College
application succeeds or not. Although I have built up successful Harvard
admissions in my head to be a big deal, they really aren't. One way or
another, I know that I will get into a good school. The point of
applying to Harvard is that I don't want to give up on my dreams before
I try them out. I feel that at this point in my life, I had better give
it my all. As long as I have a good backup school prepared in case I
don't get in, I am ready to take my chances with the Harvard admissions
office.
