It’s all there in the title. The guys over in the ED thread are going crazy with Dec 10 coming ever closer. Any applying regular?
I am applying RD at columbia, but it is my extreme dream school.
Me too. I wanted to apply ED, but then I applied to ce2. Even if it’s a dream, I don’t want it to end. ;(
I may be applying RD as well! Just waiting to hear back from ED school :-SS
I’m applying RD! I wanted to apply ED but my GPA was not ready at all. It’s a far reach for me because of my GPA, but hopefully they’d give me a chance.
Hey guys! Deferred ED applicant here! Happy I get to do my waiting with you all, hopefully the thread will become more active soon!
Let’s get this thread going! Deferred Penn ED but applying to Columbia RD
Applying RD to SEAS! My EA decisions come out on the 16th!
I got deferred from the ED pool but Columbia is still my top choice.
Hey! I am applying to Columbia RD after being deferred from UPenn ED. Columbia is a close second choice for me (still holding out on some hope that I may get into Penn RD), but I would be thrilled to go to Columbia, even though it is highly unlikely. Good luck to all of you! And for those of you who were deferred, I honestly wish you the best of luck! You deserve some success more than we do.
Hi all! I am also thinking about applying Columbia RD. I visited Columbia a few times before and I really enjoyed the campus. Can anyone tell me the reasons you are applying to Columbia? I want to go into bio/chem!!!
Hey guys! I got deferred in early so now I am an RD candidate. I was wondering if we need SAT subject tests to be competitive? I have a 34 on the ACT so do I still need subject tests?
Does anyone have the deferral acceptance rate?
Nah, if you have ACT it’s fine. I recall seeing someone with only ACT. In the ED acceptance thread. I’m hoping for neuroscience, and thus wherever Eric Kandel goes, I go.
When should I send a followup letter?
@Yomo710 follow up? Check with ur guidance counsellor.
@greysanatomy3113 I was accepted ED with only ACT scores - no subject tests - so it’s not as though you need them, per se, but if you can supplement your app with an extra suite of strong scores, I can’t say it’d hurt your case, either.
Does anyone the amount that was deferred?
@Yomo710 I’ve read in other threads that it was about 20% or something similarly slim.
Applying RD as a ChemE!
lol I was part of the ED thread back when it was both ED & RD and my notifications blew up so much
