Columbia Class of 2021 ED Applicant Thread

how many people applied ed this year?

Good luck from Penn ED thread!! We were feeling the same as you three days ago haha :stuck_out_tongue:

@AnxiousEloise Yeah I get that feeling, esp since my school is so competitive and I’m not near the top of the class I think, but I know that I’m well prepared compared to students near my rank in other schools… but at the very least even if I don’t end up getting in (which I probably won’t lol) I know that I did try my hardest on everything that I had control over (tbh still kind of depressing)

check instagram! Admissions office is mailing out the letters!

@rbd2017 ikk i saw :frowning: i’ve given up now

@gofthejungle SAME

I am still so mad that they will not just tell me that I got rejected :frowning: I do not like this wait, It is killing me!!

So many people applied early, I have literally zero chance now

righttt, i feel like their instagram pics and twitter posts are just taunting me at this point-

Wow!!! 4086 applicants. That’s CRAZY…They’re only about 400 spots. Kudos to those who make it. You are
truly the TOP 10% of applicants.

That Columbia Spectator article is really scaring me.

As my English teacher always says, “a man’s reach must exceed his grasp, else what’s a heaven for?”
Good luck to all of you guys. As it winds down to the last 1.5 hours, I hope you all feel proud of yourselves no matter what happens on that portal tonight. You’re all incredible and I wish the best in the future for each and every one of you. Kudos!

It’s so crazy how much can change in about an hour … really wishing I retook the SAT again right about now

I think the 400 spots figure is a little off. About 45% of their 2200 spots are reserved for ED applicants. That’s more like 1000.

I think it’s around 600 actually

I don’t think they have a minimum or maximum amount of ED spots. I think it all depends on the strength of the applications, the amount of apps, etc

Good Luck to everyone! I wont say any of the cliche things people often say (like dont worry you will be happy at the end of it all), but whatever the decision is, God still loves you all so much and he has a plan you, whether its at Columbia or elsewhere!

C’mon guys let’s get the board rolling ! Half hour to go … Best of Luck to everyone

Yall I’m so scared!!!
