<p>Computer science (SEAS) applicant from Northern California checking in. It’s gonna be a eight days until admissions.</p>
<p>What dorms would you guys want to be in should you be accepted? I’m leaning towards Carman Hall, but I’ve also heard that Furnald has the best facilities.</p>
<p>I’m just here, anticipating the decision thread. Guys, just catch senioritis and your excuse would be “listen I applied early action to columbia, don’t mess with me!”"</p>
<p>@lee1024, I applied to SEAS for EE! I don’t know about Carman or Furnald, but I visited a freshman in John Jay and had a great time. According to my host, the dorms all have their own personalities, and Jay is great for people who want to be social and still get stuff done… I forgot which dorm was the party dorm and which one was supposed to be the quietest…</p>
<p>@Sarahmt
SEAS for Comp Sci!
Probably gonna start looking into dorms after I get accepted…</p>
<p>Anyone want to exchange skype usernames to chat and alleviate the anxiety…?</p>
<p>Is it bad that I haven’t and probably won’t be sending a midyear report in? I don’t get grades for all my subjects until Monday…</p>
<p>1st quarter grades are optional school report I think… Midyear’s after 2nd quarter, which is required.</p>
<p>What Columbia states on their site is to have your counselor send a “Mid-Year Report” with your first quarter/trimester grades “as soon as they are available.” However, my counselor said that the mid year report can only be submitted once and is the same for all colleges (so it can’t be modified). So instead she submitted an optional report with the first quarter grades, and mailed a hard copy last week to the admissions office. Not sure if that is the best way of going about all this, but just my experience in case anyone was curious.</p>
<p>SEAS for Applied Physics, what what! Been lurking a little and thought I’d finally speak up. It’s been a while since I was on this site waiting anxiously with others for decisions (MITES…sigh).</p>
<p>Concerning dorms, I know from when I was at Columbia for CE^2 that Carman was the party building. It was super friendly, too! Although I enjoyed staying there (and my host was awesome), I personally don’t think I’d find myself there. Of course, I hate to be talking about living options before I get my decision…</p>
<p>Cool to know I’m not the only one looking into Columbia dorms. It’s probably psychologically unhealthy (will bite back hard if a rejection comes), but gahhh I couldn’t stop myself.
I’ve been leaning towards Furnald here. It’s great that the dorms have been through some big renovations lately. </p>
<p>@Siemprell Gonna pass on the skype thing. I personally want to try to not think too much about this haha .__.</p>
<p>@ mthompson, I am worried about this as well. Hope a current student clarifies this to us.</p>
<p>Ah just about a week and a bit left for us all. I could swear that everything I’m seeing right now is light blue…</p>
<p>I swear the name Columbia pops out on EVERYTHING I read…</p>
<p>@siemprell I’d be happy to, PM me?</p>
<p>@mmallow the same thing happens to me to. In fact I just heard Columbia again on a TV show :[</p>
<p>Neuroscience/Comparative Literature to CC from Southeastern Ohio here! </p>
<p>I don’t care which dorm I’m in - I’ll live in the janitor’s closet if they accept me!</p>
<p>Seven days!! Finally reached the last week. Here comes the real torture…</p>
