<p>cool, a CC likely letter. I didn't know that they sent them. lol</p>
<p>OMG I am so jealous.............
I wish I had one too :(!!!
I applied to Columbia College; I wonder if anyone who applied there have gotten one.</p>
<p>I'm not trying to be a troll (since I accidentally started a separate likely letter thread) but yes CC sends out likelies....I applied to CC and I got one Friday</p>
<p>So I got a CC likely letter in the mail yesterday...but I don't see why</p>
<p>I don't have anything amazing on my application</p>
<p>cman74 and 18min.</p>
<p>are you non-athletes?</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm a non-athlete. But I am an URM if that helps. And beyond my grades/scores/URM status I can't think of any outstanding reason for the letter. My ECs aren't that big of a deal...</p>
<p>I thought the same thing when I got admitted as a Scholar. I figured there must have been some mistake.</p>
<p>Sometimes the dice roll in your favor.</p>
<p>what were your ECs cman74? lol are you just being modest?</p>
<p>I guess I'll just post my stats and ECs so you guys can have some concrete reference points as to whom received the letter and why...</p>

<p>you're a fellow TASPer right?</p>
<p>Those who have received likely letters who are non-athletes: When did you submit your applications?</p>
<p>they have very good EC's and the status "URM" like everybody knows is a huge hook!!</p>
<p>the OP was not URM...</p>
<p>URM? What is that?</p>
