So, I noticed there was only a thread for the ED applicants to Columbia, so here’s one for RD! How is everyone doing on their supplemental essays?
Haven’t started yet. Probably will begin them sometime in the next few weeks.
^ Hahahah same here 
good luck everyone!!!
Me-3
Just finished my application! Won’t be turning it in yet, but at least I have it completed!
Lol I haven’t even started my essays yet but at least I have all my topics, so it should only take me a few days.
Just started my essays! Btw would anyone chance me? SAT 1 score is low (1420) but subject test scores are 780 for math 2 and 700 for chem. Would they make up? Also have a good list of ECs. I have offers from University of Rochester and Boston University for spring 2018 but I’d like to give Columbia a shot!
an 800 in math 2 is standard so a 780 won’t look that great. I would take it again if you have the chance. keep in mind ECs play an important role too so don’t give up hope!
Could you guys chance me? I just got deferred from my EA school and I am really hoping to get into Columbia. I am applying for Engineering and have a 36 ACT, as well as a 790 Math 2 and 770 Chem for my SAT 2s. GPA UW is 3.94/4.7W and am in the top 3% of my class I have taken 10 AP tests (8 5s 2 4s) and am an AP National scholar. For my ECs, I am in Debate (leadership position, state, nationals, Tournament of Champion Qualifier) and FBLA (Placed at State and Nationals for the last 2 years). This summer I also did a research internship. I have a few more national awards and some smaller ECs. What do you guys think?
I just got deferred from Harvard this week. I had sent my regular decision application to Columbia before I had heard Harvard’s decision. Now, after getting deferred, I would like to add a bit more to my Columbia RD application. Is there a place in the student portal for Columbia where students can go in and add more supplemental materials to their RD applications?
I’m so anxious! Just got deferred from an EA school so this break will be dedicated solely to RDing ;-; how are you all coping with the stress this Christmas??
Day after Christmas locked in my room writing essays! Good luck everyone 
@orangeandblack21 same!!! I have so many applications to do and so little time left
For anyone who has already submitted their application: Are you able to see which materials have been received on your Columbia Undergrad portal? I submitted my application and supplements through the Common App weeks ago, but have been unable to see if anything has been received.
@collegegirl82 I’m having that problem too. Maybe they just haven’t processed it yet because of winter break and everything?
legit so anxious
cant believe we need to wait for 2 monthssss
i hate having to wait so long for colleges to get back to me. only quick response was from rutgers and miami of ohio.
