****Columbia University Class of 2021 Regular Decision Thread****

OMG I got named a Kluge Scholar!

Accepted… honestly I have no idea how or why it happened. I’ve realised that a lot of times the admissions process makes almost zero sense. A little advice from an international kid who was 99% sure she had no chance:
Apply anyway, dream as big as you want and work hard. The dreams that you have worked hard for will happen but not always in the way you expect. Keep your chin up and fight for them anyway.

Accepted :slight_smile:

D was accepted - nothing in the college admissions process made sense this year. Waitlisted at Williams and Georgetown (his first choice), but accepted at Columbia. He’s pretty happy right now, since he (and the rest of us) were expecting a rejection.

Accepted Columbia FU(Likely-Egleston Scholar)

Congrats to those accepted & waitlisted and Good luck to others.

Is there a way to download the Columbia video?

D Accepted. Loved the video!

Accepted. Shocked. To those of you were weren’t, you will certainly wind up at a great school and will go on to do great things.

Accepted!!! I have slow Internet so the Columbia video wouldn’t load at first and I thought, “am I getting a pre-rejection advertisement!?”, but the video was so beautiful and the letter was so welcoming! I am in shock and awe.
