Countdown to DECISION DAY!!!

<p>SALTYBALLS THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I’M DOING. hahaha. Seriously though, if I didn’t get into CU it’ll be fine because I’m obsessed with Brown (It seems like everybody wants to go to Brown). But I’m still nervous, I wish they could just tell us now.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Brown does seem like a popular 2nd choice, which is kind of surprising when their structure couldn’t be more opposite to Columbia’s. I’m surprised the same people who like the idea of the Core also like Brown’s completely open choice method.</p>

<p>i think i only picked columbia because of NYC. if they had a columbia and a brown in NYC, i’d pick brown</p>

<p>^ you could’ve applied to new york university. you would probably have had a better chance there!</p>

<p>^ NYU sucks and they don’t give as much fin aid as Columbia</p>

<p>when do the decisions for the other ivy leagues come out? lol, i want to go to their threads and congratulate them.</p>

<p>Darthmouth is the 8th
Cornell is the 10th
Penn is the 11th
Brown is the 14th
Yale and Stanford are the 15th</p>

<p>I’m going to be lurking/good lucking too…it’s exciting.</p>

<p>@haha I win - how does NYU suck?</p>

<p>pearlh/saltyballs: I have to agree with saltyballs on this one. I picked Columbia because of the city. In terms of curriculums, I think they’re both great and I’ll obviously get an amazing education at either one. </p>

<p>Honestly, I think NYU is overrated, and definitely overpriced. There’s no community factor, and the classes (as I’ve heard) aren’t that great.</p>

<p>^^ well, while I don’t agree that NYU necessarily sucks, I have to admit I’m not a fan of their decentralized campus structure. and the admissions process there, while hardly lenient, isn’t exactly as cutthroat as columbia. or even close. so I guess I see where hahaiwin is coming from.</p>

<p>thanks reversepsych!
and, haha, i know what you mean, i’ll be doing the same. it’s especially exciting, because it gives me an idea of what that day will be like for us.</p>

<p>does anyone else have this knot in your stomach every time you think about columbia and the uncertainty of getting in…</p>

<p>^everyday for the past month. </p>

<p>it’s getting to the point where it’s an unhealthy obsession…</p>

<p>i know! when i was actually working on my application, like late september-early october, i lost five pounds from stress. its not normal.</p>

<p>sorry, this was probably asked before, but does anyone know when are we gonna receive an email telling us when our results are coming out?</p>

<p>Last year, the email came out on the 8th and the decisions were posted on the 11th.</p>

<p>NYU sucks because when I visited the people are rude, and your basically paying $52,000 for concrete</p>

<p>so that means if they post on monday… (the 7th) decisions should come out thursday (the 10th)!!</p>

<p>Katy3028: Oh, I see. Wow, your English is amazing for someone who attends local school! :slight_smile:
No, I don’t live in Beijing. I go to an international school in Shanghai. :)</p>

<p>x.wondergirl:
Thanks:) But then I grew up in New Zealand so it’s not that remarkable…I’m a new zealand citizen btw. Are you a US citizen? I hope you find China ok:)</p>

<p>I’m still freaking out because Columbia FAO still hasn’t found my css/profile! Anyone else got that problem? And also does anyone know if Barnard has the same Financial Aid as Columbia?:)</p>
