<p>man… this thread is so quiet compared to last years! G’luck everyone, hopefully we will start hearing some good news some time this week!</p>
<p>Haha! I agree, I think everyone is just trying to stay strong during this waiting period. I know I am!</p>
<p>Hey everyone. I’ve been silently following this thread and finally decided to make an account myself. I must admit, I’m getting pretty nervous, and @nontradguy, I spent all morning staring at my phone, too. Lol. Hopefully we all hear from them this or next week because the wait is killing me!</p>
<p>Welcome to the thread sktchbook! Yeah every time my phone rings my face is like @_@ but then I realize its a false alarm haha.</p>
<p>did all of you guys already receive an email saying your application is under review? If so, when did you submit your app?</p>
<p>Hi guys,
I am also still waiting for the mail or phone calls from GS admission. I applied for fall 2013. </p>
<p>I can say that I am the one who has very low chance to be accepted because,</p>
<p>I have very good life experiences but I have very low GPA.</p>
<p>I dropped my college 15 years ago and I have only 35 credits and I do not have A. It is all B and C.
My toefl degree is 90. they required minimum 100.</p>
<p>My essay was average, I didn’t even do double check, later I noticed that I had grammar and punctuation mistakes.</p>
<p>So I am actually typical B college candidate. </p>
<p>I already applied for Cuny. So it doesn’t matter but I wanna see the rejected mail. Still waiting. Maybe my case gives you an idea about the admission’s decision process.
p.s.: I did not receive any email saying your app is under review.</p>
<p>hey everyone,</p>
<p>i’ve been following this thread for a couple days, so thought that i’d join in. my application has been complete since march 1 and was soon after “under review.” i’ve tried logging into the financial aid website as a “first time user,” but to no avail. keeping my fingers crossed & hoping i get a call, email, or package in the mail! </p>
<p>i wish everyone the best! & hope you all end up where you are meant to be.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>So, in that case, I did not get any “under review” notice by email. That means if you get that email, probably you will going to be accepted.</p>
<p>no, no! i called and asked about the status of my application, then the lady told me my application is under review. i never got an email either so don’t fret!</p>
<p>Oh ok, then I thought that you guys got an email about your app is under review. So, no need panic, you should wait and see, I think they will start sending the mails this week.</p>
<p>@misshotan, 2 weeks ago, people started to say they’ll start sending mails that week. so don’t raise your expectation, my fragile heart knows more than i do :)</p>
<p>i think 2 years ago, they sent out mails 4-6 weeks after completion, and the official tone this year is 6-8 weeks, ergo, i guess the pool is getting bigger and they need more time to go through all. it should be a good thing right?</p>
<p>@nontradguy Thanks for the welcome! ^^</p>
<p>Yeah, I worried about the “we are reviewing your application” email too, so I gave GS a call and they told me that there is no email (?), so I guess some people received it for no particular reason. Anyways, they said my application is complete so even though I didn’t get an email, it is still under review. So don’t worry about that email, guys, but if you want to make sure you could always call them and ask.</p>
<p>@sktchbook, great info! Thanks for passing that along, I’m sure many of us are relieved to find out that there is indeed no email. It’s one less thing to have to worry about.</p>
<p>sktchbook, thanks for saying that, I’ve been really worried about not getting that email. I also feel like I’ve been calling them way too much. My brain is telling me to just relax and wait, but I just can’t!!! I’m sure I’m not alone in that lol</p>
<p>Hello! I know Columbia has sent some rejections out. Best of luck!</p>
<p>@Krzripgirl
for real?</p>
<p>if that so, this is the real good news so far!</p>
<p>How do you know about the rejections? I thought they first notify admitted students.</p>
<p>Just got an under review email, app was complete friday, did anyone else get one at all?</p>
<p>hmmm… maybe she meant Columbia College and not GS. Just from reading last years thread, it seemed like the people that got rejected didn’t find out till later in May.</p>
<p>I hope you’re right nontrad in that she meant Columbia College. I’m getting more nervous by the minute…</p>
