<p>Hey guys!</p>
<p>I looked up College Confidential but didn't find any forum like this. So feel free to talk about the week that we've got to wait for admissions decisions to come out, and do post your stats and decisions once they're released.</p>
<p>I didn’t LIST the books/whatever in my essays. Briefly explained and gave examples. I really don’t know if they’ll hate it or despise it. What do you think?</p>
<p>stanfordmania - I did the same thing, I doubt admissions will get upset that we put extra effort into answering the question; don’t worry about it. :)</p>
<p>Ahhh this wait is killing me. Worst part is, I have exams till the 19th. As a result, I’m not allowed to check until then :’(</p>
<p>@wewillwin - Can you change this to just a results thread instead? There’s already a discussion thread for this year’s applicants called “Columbia ED applicants”…it just doesn’t have 2018 in it. Also, I think it would be easier if you copy/pasted a results template in your OP so that we can access it on decision day. Just a few thoughts ^^</p>
<p>OMG there’s one week left!!! I’m freaking out so badly. I haven’t been able to concentrate in school or on my other essays. I’m sure you guys are feeling the same. GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!</p>
<p>@ksanity: I feel you. Every time I sit down to try and study I just start daydreaming about Columbia. I picture getting accepted, I picture getting rejected and then I just end up not getting work done.</p>
<p>The results are right around the corner. I’m so nervous and finals are coming up too #***</p>
<p>@Misterflags that’s exactly what I’ve been doing this week… the next couple days are going to be a roller coaster of emotions for me!</p>
<p>@Misterflags I’ve been having dreams, both good and bad, about Columbia results… I think I’m going crazy</p>
<p>This decision is straining what little nerves I have left!</p>
<p>@jxclcc: I’m there with you, man. I’ve been trying to convince myself that I won’t get in since people always say that it’s best to keep expectations low (that way if I succeed it’d be a pleasant surprise and if I fail I’ll already have an emotional buffer in place), but I keep thinking that there’s a chance that I will actually get in…</p>
<p>Which is terrible. :</p>
<p>@ksanity: Me too! It’s definitely haunting me.
Almost like a vengeful ghost! (But really, nothing like a vengeful ghost).</p>
<p>4 days left. F.O.U.R!</p>
<p>I’ve put myself into a mental place of total pessimism about this, just so that if I get rejected it won’t hurt as much. The wait is killing me.</p>
<p>Guys!</p>
<p>I just came across this link: <a href=“https://undergrad.admissions.columbia.edu/welcome/login?destination=node/1[/url]”>https://undergrad.admissions.columbia.edu/welcome/login?destination=node/1</a> that is supposed to be a welcome message for admitted students. I tried putting in my Columbia ID and DOB in, but it didn’t read it. That either means that the system hasn’t been updated yet or that I’ve been deferred or denied. It would be great if all of you could try to login yourselves - then perhaps, we’ll find out if this will actually know our decisions or not!</p>
<p>It said “Sorry, too many failed login attempts from your IP address. This IP address is temporarily blocked.” Don’t know what that means…but the results are coming tomorrow!!!</p>
<p>I was admitted last year & currently attend Columbia. This is not relevant to your situation, but I tried with my login and it doesn’t work. “Sorry, unrecognized username or password.”</p>
<p>@thumbtack</p>
<p>So do you get a different Columbia ID on admittance?</p>
<p>Mine brings me to a new window that says pending. There’s no decision or anything though?</p>
