<p>Of course we will 
as I told you via PM it’s just pure logic that they haven’t delayed their answer just out of fun and machiavelism!! Also mlleJack as you applied very late in May, it’s kinda of normal that a decision was made about your dossier only last week…</p>
<p>As of Moonandstars, my friend you must be on the edge I don’t know. They either took their time to take a decision or they waited for some crazy guy to trun down the admission he was offered (I don’t know, I’m just trying to build up plausible theories here ^^).</p>
<p>But if I were you guys, I would relax and start saving to buy a nice French champagne bottle ;)</p>
<p>I also applied late. They got my application fee after June 1 as well as my college transcript. They also couldn’t locate my high school transcript even after it was submitted. I understand why my decision is late…but at this stage…we should have heard something by now! In any event, I’ll probably get something in the mail by tomorrow.</p>
<p>But I thank you for making me just a bit more confident. All hope is not lost. :|</p>
<p>I really hope to meet all you thoughtful and intelligent students this fall on campus!</p>
<p>If you’re right, I’ll bring the Champagne bottle from France (and the Champagne region) myself and we’ll cheer all together (we might actually need more than one ;-)</p>
<p>I’ll hold you to that!</p>
<p>;-)</p>
<p>I’m cheating, I’m French and I will have to go back to renew my visa
but I’m not from that region so I’ll have to drive/take the train :-p</p>
<p>What am I hearing here???
I was gonna say I’ll bring the champagne as I’m French but I see I’m not the only one!
I really hope you’ll have a nice surprise then mlleJack as I’m now very curious to know what made you apply to GS (as it’s not for the GS/Sciences Po. degree).</p>
<p>PS: of course we’ll have more than one ;)</p>
<p>tl;dr: this thread has become a GS Fall 2011 French invasion thread.</p>
<p>I also had doubts, with a nickname like yours ;-)</p>
<p>and btw, you can also bring some champagne. We can ever have enough of it!</p>
<p>Like probably all GS student, my story is long and very different. That’s what makes us “non traditional student” right? If we end up meeting in NYC we’ll have plenty of things to share indeed!</p>
<p>We might have invaded this thread but at least we’re not speaking french… yet…</p>
<p>When I thought that the wait was over I received the news that I’m on the waitlist…</p>
<p>They say that the waitlist is not ranked and that we will receive a final decision no later than August the 8th. All hope is not lost it seems… but the wait is not over yet…</p>
<p>Do you know if people generally get admitted when placed on the waitlist? Do I have a chance?
<em>finger crossed</em></p>
<p>OMG. Such a long wait! At least there is still hope. Don’t worry…everything will work out. I haven’t heard one thing! If I was told I was on a waitlist then I would know that there was at least still hope. Now it’s possible for a blue letter to show up in my mailbox. I am terrified now more than ever.</p>
<p>Right after I posted the above comment the mail-man showed up!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, nothing from Columbia yet. My heart must have stopped beating for about two minutes.</p>
<p>Well, it’s been fun.</p>
<p>I recieved my letter yesterday informing me I will not be attending Columbia. On to other things, I suppose. Fingers crossed for you @moonandstars. You’ll have to hear SOMETHING soon.</p>
<p>I am so very sorry to hear that :-(</p>
<p>You’re degree, career, and life is what you make of it! I’m sure you’ll go far, no matter where you had your undergraduate degree :-)</p>
<p>Good luck :-)</p>
<p>I’m sorry to hear that Februarystars 
We are all on pins and needles.
I was praying that everyone would get in…sucks!</p>
<p>I do wish you good luck and a promising future.</p>
<p>I’m sorry to hear that, februarystars. Maybe you can try again for the spring?? I really hopes you would get it. Also, do you mind posting your stats?? Good luck to everyone else!</p>
<p>Hi everyone,this is my first message though I have been reading the forum for a while.</p>
<p>Sorry februarystars and goodluck.Do you mind telling us how far you live from Columbia?</p>
<p>Hi funshol,</p>
<p>Were you accepted to GS or are you still waiting?</p>
<p>I am still waiting@ moonandstars</p>
<p>This whole obscurity is killing</p>
<p>I understand completely. Good luck to you. Only a few of us on this forum still have not heard anything yet.</p>
