in a few hours all apps will have been submitted! it’s crazy that the new class of 2022 will be whittled down from 4000+ apps to about 650…crossed fingers for everyone!
Good god @1984ad do those stats hurt. I’m super nervous, and I might actually die if my heart beats this fast for the next 1.5 months. It’s already winter here (we got 6 inches of snow the other day) so I’m cooped up inside (we have an end of quarter break right now) with nothing to do except practice my Arabic, watch Netflix, and freak out about Columbia!!
@katewithak wow it’s snowing where you are? what state?
haha im gonna watch some stranger things on netflix and try to forget about columbia for a while 
does anybody know when ED decision come out? On the student website, it says to check from Nov 8th-Nov 30th for an update on the application status. Surely that can’t be when the decision???
@rj15 The decision is expected to come out sometime around Dec 11-12
for people who submitted yesterday-- did you get an email confirmation directly from columbia?
@coolstudent22 I applied on the 31 and signed up for the portal yesterday. I just got the email and the ID number today.
Anyone willing to chance me? My information is on my latest post. I can also send my essays to anyone who can chance me. I’m so nervous about my application and just want to see if I am even close to competitive.
@theboywhodied I’d be willing to read your essays if you’d like.
Sent my application, but got an email next day it was extended for Quest bridge students.
just got offered an interview anyone else get one too?
Submitted ED Columbia on the 30th and the wait is already killing me.
@jiminnie yep! i’m an international hopeful!
@1984ad got offered one a couple days ago too!
Hey guys! I applied ED as a neuroscience major from West Virginia a couple weeks ago. Anyone in my area? I’m hoping I can get offered an interview too I don’t think I can wait until mid-December!
What’s up everyone! Although I’m not applying ED to Columbia, I thought I’d just come by :-). I have already submitted my application (I’m an RD applicant for Columbia University) and would like to wish everyone here the best of luck! I want you all to know that you are all truly amazing, solely based on the motivation, ambition, determination, awesomeness, a bit of craziness and loveliness you all must have, because you decided to apply to an amazing university and have been posting positive and supporting comments on this forum! Now the application(s) has/have been submitted, it’s time for the long wait. Even though not all of us here will be admitted probably, remember that the fact you applied says more than enough about you as a person and that you’ll make it far in life.
Once again, I wish you all the very best <3
@VioletHott from WV as well. I too hope to be interviewed.
I’m super nervous at this point tbh. There’s still about 5 weeks until decisions, but it feels like forever!! I’m trying hard to work on my RD apps, but my mind keeps coming back here lol
@aLlsUn
That’s cool! Good luck I’m not sure if I’ll get an interview since there aren’t too many alum in the eastern panhandle. Lmk how your process goes!
@VioletHott If there are only few alumni in the panhandle, then I doubt there are any alumni in southern wv.
