FYI....hoping to get tickets this year and make it 6 years in a row for me.

Last year the online ticketing system didn't work, so be prepared to call in.

I have it blocked out on my calendar at work, so no one thinks I'm free at that point and tries to schedule any meetings with me. A few years ago, though, I couldn't get through on the phone for an hour, had to go to an 11:00 meeting, and when I came back, was lucky to get some SROs. Maybe I'll extend my "appointment";-) an extra hour, just to be sure.

Does the Harvard ticket office limit the number you can purchase to 2 per caller? Or is it 4?

Is this the only way to get tickets, or well the Cornell ticket office get some at some-point?

yes it is possible, but getting through harvard is your best option. last year they did a lottery for the cornell alottment since there was such high demand...I knew a few people who put their names in, and none of them got any tickets.

Got two in section 17, row 3, via the web site.

jaybert · September 24, 2008, 10:06:13 AM

available online as well this year.

easiest year yet...got right through.

will probably have a few to sell once I figure out how many I actually need since we ended up with 12.

JDeafv · September 24, 2008, 10:06:22 AM

Sold out? No tickets available online at this point ... or is the system down?

I was able to get 3 right at 10:00 on the website, but not more than 3. By the time I went back at 10:03 to try to get more, it seems they are all gone.

Got 6 in section 16 via the phone right at 10.
