<p>In the transfer application part 1, one of the questions asks if a student has "conferred" with a Columbia rep about the admissions process. This may sound a bit nit picky, I figured part 1 is not put under true scrutiny and just provides a background, but is it considered too nonchalant to say no? I mean, I guess contacting an admissions adviser shows true dedication and interest which might be their reasoning? </p>
<p>Also, in the area where one lists their Current University it requires the input of entrance and left (or scheduled graduation)...do I put Feb 2011 (I am not completing my spring semester) or what would have been my graduation date if I stayed (May 2012)?</p>
<p>A. You’ve already submitted you app, so you’re doing your soul/sanity no favors stressing over this.</p>
<p>B. Just like <em>nearly</em> everyone else here, I’m no adcom, but I would guess that it matters SO little.</p>
<p>I haven’t submitted my application yet…</p>
<p>cynthia make an educated guess on what makes the most sense for you.</p>
<p>based on your answers here - i think you know what to write.</p>
<p>Yeah, sorry, as I’m sure you can all relate it all becomes so stressful and I just stress over every little detail. Probably an annoying starter question for a thread. =/ </p>
<p>I still don’t know about my second question, as to whether they mean when I left or my intended leave, I thought they might be curious as to how long my degree program was, especially as I am an international student.</p>
<p>put down when you would end (so the May 2012 date).</p>
<p>Thanks for that =]</p>
