<p>Don’t worry.
I got the same letter, except from Columbia College, not the Fu School of Engineering.
It basically means we got accepted already. Chillax.
Go celebrate with ur friends and family members =)</p>
<p>I’m so jealous!!! I want a ‘YES’ letter from Columbia!!!</p>
<p>did any international students get likely letters?</p>
<p>Or any deffeeerrees???</p>
<p>oprah, where do you live? in close proximity to nyc?</p>
<p>Have these letters been sent out to International Applicants too?</p>
<p>would anyone who’s gotten a likely letter post their stats? i’m a junior but just curious:)</p>
<p>Adelaide i live in maryland</p>

<p>I reused essays from other applications, but I put a lot of effort into them and I think they were pretty good.</p>
<p>how many/ what % of likely letters are sent out? Till when do they come out before the actual decision date?</p>
<p>On this board, many people seem to get it. Getting paranoid…</p>
<p>I’m technically an international because I don’t have a green card. But I do live in the United States. My letter came via email, so I’m assuming that Internationals get likelies too… (very unlikely I suppose).</p>
<p>I got a likely today! It was such a nice thing to wake up to (it’s now morning in my timezone).
Yes I’m an international from Vietnam. Studied high school in Singapore though.</p>
<p>Basic stats:

<p>For more details do a search of my post. There’s one recently in the Dartmouth board and one super detailed in the Yale board - yes got accepted there too. Thank God (:</p>
<p>Interview: none. Was invited but declined cos I wasn’t in Singapore anymore.
Intended major: political science
Finaid: yes. I should get a full ride by any calculator, but I’m not sure right now. Columbia’s not needblind.</p>

<p>WHOA! :')</p>
<p>Wow. likely letters??? Lol, It would be nice to have one…but I don’t think I might get in esp I applied Fu Found. School of Eng…</p>
<p>At this point, do you think they might be done mostly with their applications and are sending out likley letters to ppl who’ve been accepted already?</p>
<p>I’m a bit anxious to get home from spring break and check my mail~ but the box will probably be empty T_T</p>
<p>Yeah. I was so stoked when I got my likely.</p>

<p>^ Hey are you Korean, too? Lol Koreans unite! You have some impressive stats! Does anyone know if getting a likely absolutely guarantees admission? At least unless you shoot someone or fail, right?</p>
<p>@ silversuz1 : it’s unofficially guaranteed admission in the crudest terms…congratulations…</p>
<p>I regret it soooo much! I only sent in one essay… one boring essay about me coming to America and surviving the first year of high school barely knowing English. I was going to send another essay about food, and my diverse culture. Since the admissions said that they do not want another writing sample, so I didn’t send it in… But I wanted to… I thought sending in would hurt my chances… arghhhhhh…!!! I am 90% sure that I won’t get in!! TT^TT</p>
<p>^we had to do more than one essay!?!?! (or had the option to?!)</p>
