<p>Thanks for the prompt reply. I am working on my essays - aside from the autobiographical I’ve written an additional academic essay for my poor college performance as well as the optional essay.</p>
<p>Not a word from Columbia. Anyone hear ANYTHING?! This waiting is torture.</p>
<p>nothing, but they did send out an email saying that the deadline for spring admission is moved to later date because of the storm</p>
<p>haven’t heard anything and i’m an international applicant so i guess if anything i’ll hear first?</p>
<p>is it just me or is there less applicants for this semester or just less threads?</p>
<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I’ve been following this forum silently since I applied in July.</p>
<p>…and I just received word – I’m in!</p>
<p>I look forward to meeting you guys on campus!</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Congrats sochiro! are you an international applicant?</p>
<p>Thanks! Yeah, I am</p>
<p>congrats!! When were you notified?</p>
<p>Also, do you mind sharing your stats?</p>
<p>I was notified on Friday.</p>
<p>My stats: I am 28 years old, military veteran (5 years). I took an interest in computers at a very young age, and have a lot of work experience in the tech industry. Computers and technology are both a passion and a profession.</p>
<p>These days I run a small consulting firm specializing in low level computing.</p>
<p>I have bad high school grades (long story…), but I scored 2290 on the SAT.</p>
<p>EC – I’ve been volunteering for years as an instructor in one of our military’s tech schools, teaching Programming, Operating system internals, Computer networks and other stuff.</p>
<p>Congrats sochiro!!</p>
<p>Was wondering did u receive the notification by mail or phone? And looking at previous threads, people who were accepted were able to log into financial aid website, are you able to access it?</p>
<p>Hmm… so if we dont get acceptance by 15 Nov, there is a good chance that we will get rejection?</p>
<p>I imagine there is a good possibility the results will be delayed due to the storm. I didn’t submit mine until the 5th, but I have had my fingers crossed ever since.</p>
<p>Sean, you didn’t submit what until the 5th? </p>
<p>I talked to admissions yesterday, they were closed all last week because of Sandy and yesterday because of the election. So they will begin on Wed again, most people should find out this month, if you have a personal reason for a more expedient answer such as myself, they will do their best to meet a specific date.</p>
<p>I also submitted on the 5th, and I know some people asked for extensions due to the hurricane. I guess the international applicants are being notified.</p>
<p>Congrats Sochiro!!</p>
<p>My admissions package. I didn’t finalize everything until then. I imagine I will not hear until later this month as I waited until the last minute. Has anyone else been on the tours? I went in September. I really enjoyed it.</p>
<p>Congrats, Sochiro! Enjoy it!</p>
<p>Also, is anybody here planning on applying for the Dual BA-Sciences Po program?</p>
<p>I’m also thinking more towards the end of the month. But I’m hopeful:)</p>
<p>I submitted my application (early decision) on Aug 18th but my final rec wasn’t processed until early September. Each day that I wait, the more I feel like I’ll be mass notified with all the other rejections later in the month. I’m trying to stay positive though, as I believe that I’m a good candidate! Hope everyone on here receives good news VERY SOON.</p>
