<p>I had read the wikipedia pages for Columbia and General Studies so many times that I practically memorized all the important alumni that FalmaMom mentioned. There may be some mistakes though!</p>

<p>Hmmm… Never thought of that Liz ;)</p>

<p>I mean it is a pretty sexy picture ;p</p>

<p>Interesting. So why are some applicants notified of acceptance before May 1?</p>

<p>Just thought I’d mention that in a recent interview with The Blue & White, Dean Peter Awn mentioned that the GS adcom spends approximately 4 hours with each application received. 4 hours! That’s insane and wonderful. So, I guess rest assured that they’re really think hard about it.</p>

<p>WOW, HYSPMCo! You are the winner!</p>

<p>hi everybody, congrats on those accepted so far. I had a phone interview yesterday morning and today I was able to log in to the financial aid website, for those accepted are you able to log in yet? I have not been notified if I have been accepted or not. I hope this means I have been.</p>

<p>i still cant log onto the financial aid website and i was accepted april 13</p>

<p>Are you trying to login via the first time user button because that didn’t work for me. I just used my cid and 8 digit dob and hit login</p>

<p>We’ve long established that there’s no correlation between FA log-in and acceptance.</p>

<p>Really? I was under the impression that those who could log in had been accepted but that not being able to login didn’t necessarily mean rejection.</p>

<p>wow weird you are right i can log in but only when i do NOT use the “new user” function. makes a lot of sense.</p>

<p>Ummmm so it let me log in to the financial aid info… I used my cu id and my 8 digit dob for the login page. Is this good news?</p>
