<p>No hook whatsoever. If anything I was the one with the hook. I’m premed.</p>
<p>You never know why someone was picked, but everyone had their reasons for getting in or not.</p>
<p>I was thinking more along the lines of her having been through a lot or being a URM or something…hmm. Well if the website means what we think it means, then I’m really really sorry, and that doesn’t sound fair at all to me.</p>
<p>though I’m at the same time really sorry 
and I know this doesnt make it better, but I’m sure some other wonderful school take you :)</p>
<p>Well girls, we’ll (or at least most of us) will know today for certain. So good luck!</p>
<p>AK81493: Again, you do not know your admission status for sure at this point, correct? You have not received a letter.</p>
<p>But even if you are denied admission, I do hope you can let this animosity towards the girl you know who was admitted go. Unless you read for yourself every aspect of her application, you don’t know for sure what was on there or the quality of it. I cannot imagine how you would know that someone else wrote her essays…did she tell you this?</p>
<p>And being interested in premed is not considered a “hook”. Many, many students consider going that route. </p>
<p>My advice to you is to accept what ever decision about your admission as a nudge in the direction your life is supposed to go…and I am sure with grace and determination, that direction will be a good and worthy one. Bitterness will lead you down a very different path.</p>
<p>The website isn’t working for me, so I just figure I got rejected…</p>
<p>But congratualtions to everyone! </p>
<p>I’ll figure something out.</p>
<p>Hi. Is there anyone who has not received an email and from RI…?</p>
<p>I just enrolled.
I have never been this happy in my entire life.</p>
<p>Same here, figureskater, same here haha ;p.</p>
<p>I’m very excited to go to Barnard and tell anyone who asks that its an LAC in NYC, but most people have heard of it. Anyways, I bought a CU sweatshirt last year just because I thought it was really cute and they have more of a selection than Barnard. Would it still be OK to wear it?</p>
<p>I’m gonna say yes, totally wear it.
Do we join the Barnard network or columbia on facebook?</p>
<p>There is no barnard network, you have to use your columbia email and join the columbia network. The email adress is supposed to be activated within 2 weeks of submitting your deposit.</p>
<p>Well this is exciting!</p>
<p>It doesn’t really seem REAL. I haven’t gotten my physical letter yet, so that might be a contributing factor, but somehow I feel like this is all a dream.</p>
<p>I got a letter priority mail!!! But none of my parents are home so it seems so dirty to open it. I WILL be back here posting my stats, though! Good luck to all you who are applying RD!</p>
<p>Congratulations smartundecided! I’m so happy for you! You must feel so relieved and happy right now : ) Haha, call your parents and scream your excitement over the phone, I’m sure they’ll appreciate that. P:</p>
<p>About the online password thing-- If your password works, I’m certain you were accepted. </p>
<p>It’s official, my letter came, and I was deferred. I’m thinking hard right now for something to add to my application, but I can’t think of anything spectacular. I don’t think it’d really help me to try and explain my GPA, because I have no excuses.</p>
<p>Can anyone point me in the right direction? Searching through past threads right now…</p>
<p>I got my letter! My mom was so relieved. She kept telling me that she was of the paper generation, and didn’t want to get her hopes up until she saw the letter.</p>
<p>I got my letter!! It’s so exciting but my mom is not too pleased with our fin aid package. I wanted to be considered for BOP but my SAT scores are too high. Scholarships, Scholarships, Scholarships!!!</p>
<p>Hi. I’m from Westchester and I haven’t gotten my letter yet. But I can log into the admitted students thing, and the enrollment reply form has my name when I log in.</p>
<p>I’m probably in right?</p>
<p>@Jaden It’s absolutely okay. :)</p>
