Columbia GS Spring 2022 Early Action/Regular Decision Thread

Has anyone gotten an admission update today? Or has anyone who applied Regular heard back yet?

Hii,
I applied on 09/28/2021 and haven’t heard back yeat :D, hope this helps hehe

Hi @haku_ema! Have you reached out to them then? Because on the admissions website it says that “Applications completed by October 1 will receive a decision by November 15”.

I did spoke to them two weeks ago, and they told me the results should be in two weeks
whatever happens happens hehe

Has anyone heard back today?

I was accepted today!

Congrats!! :slight_smile: That’s awesome! When did you submit your app if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you so much! I submitted on the very last day: 11/3

May I ask what your stats were?

Sure! I’m 24 and a first generation college student. Graduated hs at 16. HS GPA wasn’t that great: 83/100. I went on to college, but had to leave after a year due to financial struggles and my parent’s health. At a very young age, I had to become the sole financial provider for my big family. Started working in NYC public schools as a teacher’s assistant. Went back to school and attended community college in fall 2020. Maintained a 4.0 throughout. Break between was 5 years. I also have a home baking business and most recently, an Etsy shop. President of a club. In Phi Theta Kappa. I was really proud of my essay. It was very honest and personal, and I mostly talked about my growth and why GS was the perfect fit for me. Hope this helps!
