Acceptance Letters? Already?

<p>crisscross: No. Think about it. It's only the end of February, and they still have many applications to look over (at least, that's what I'm assuming). Apparently, likely letters are given to a select few, so don't stress.</p>

<p>^ thanks for the kind words</p>

<p>did everyone who got likely letters get them after their interviews?</p>

<p>i got my likely 2 days before my interview. it was a bit... strange.</p>

<p>I haven't had an interview or been contacted for one</p>

<p>^Same here, no interview.</p>

<p>It's nice to get a likely letter, I'm enjoying it, but have there been any times in Columbia's recent history when a student got a likely letter, but come March 31st, was rejected? This bit of doubt crept into my head and dampened the excitement a bit, and I just wanted to get some background info and/or your opinions on it.</p>

<p>I have a question for you all:</p>

<p>I received an email from my regional admissions officer about my missing SATI score report (for some reason they had my SATII scores but not my SATIs). I found it to be sorta personal and it even came from her own email address (one not affiliated with Columbia). She encouraged me to ask her any questions I had about Columbia and she included an emoticon in the email (I luld at this).</p>

<p>I thought it was kind of odd because a similar situation occurred with Yale for the SCEA round (I was missing an SAT score report... damn you collegeboard!), but I received nothing like a personal email from my admissions officer about the missing document (even though she "loves" me enough to have admitted me). Rather, I had to contact the admissions office nonstop about the issue.</p>

<p>I was wondering if this could be interpreted as an email with "likely letter" connotations? What do you guys think? The only reason I have to justify that I MIGHT be eligible for a likely is that I'm black and my stats are literally leaps and bounds beyond those black students who have been admitted from my area within the past four years.</p>

<p>Tell me yo thoughts!</p>

<p>I think that making that assumption would be a mistake. Columbia probably handles missing stuff differently than Yale</p>

<p>^ This is my thinking.</p>

<p>dtl42, I hope not. There probably was a person, but they probably got like a C in a class ro something......</p>

<p>I got a physical letter today.</p>

<p>And I highly doubt just one C would make them rescind a likely candidate. It would have to be multiple Cs/</p>

<p>were you asked for financial aid info right before you got a likely letter?</p>

<p>I received an email about it but it was only a reminder to apply (and I already had) lol</p>

<p>People who got likely letters: did you get an email today about visiting? I'm trying to decide whether it was from like some mailing list, or for likely'ed students.</p>

<p>I got a likely letter and I got that e-mail today. I'm pretty sure it's only for likely'ed students.</p>

<p>I got the visit email as well, but it sounded pretty generic :P</p>

<p>Any non-likelies get it?</p>

<p>I'm a likely and i got that ssame e-mail</p>

<p>Does any international applicant got likely letter? please post. Thx</p>

<p>Did any of the likely-letter/email recipients ask for aid? And any who are international? Love to hear your stats! Thanks.</p>

<p>I'm technically an international (from Canada) and I got one. They don't discriminate that much, so if you're application is truly outstanding, you will receive a likely letter no matter from where you hail.</p>
