<p>I just want to see how many acceptees are going to actually attend. Also, does anyone have any idea how large the waitlist is?</p>

2

<p>hopefully yall say no…WOOT waitlist takeover 2009!!!</p>

3

<p>probably… although a weekend at Columbia might change my mind.</p>

4

<p>I live in NYC, and for college, Penn seems better. Columbia students leave campus too much and it detracts from the campus. </p>

<p>PENN '13 BABY!!!</p>

5

<p>hells yes im going :D</p>

6

<p>i am planning on it</p>

7

<p>I’m planning on it if I can work out the financial aid with my parents.</p>

8

<p>Yeah, probably. I’m visiting Columbia also, but I leaning towards Penn. Hope it doesn’t make a bad impression!</p>

9

<p>I think I’m going for sure. My first choice was stanford, but after a depressing rejection all I can say is I’m so happy I got into #2 :)</p>

10

<p>Haha hellflame666, that rejection from Stanford WAS really depressing (got one too).
Yep, I’m going! My other rejections kind of made the decision for me, haha.</p>

11

<p>If I don’t choose brown or duke.</p>

12

<p>maybe!!!</p>

<p>upenn vs. columbia</p>

13

<p>haha, hcvops, are you going to balance out my choice to attend Penn instead of Columbia by choosing the latter?</p>

<p>For me, it’s a choice of collegiate feel and a scholarly yet social atmosphere. People spoke of the supposedly intellectual feel of Columbia, but I found Penn to be just as stimulating. Columbia felt choked by both the core and congested, urban campus. Penn is urban, but it’s also OPEN! I don’t think Penn is any less selective, either; it had an off year, but its SAT averages and stuff are equal to Columbia and its peers, and its been higher-ranked for like 10 years. In my opinion, all Columbia has is NYC; and frankly, I’ve had enough of that.</p>

<p>Plus, you have to love the quad.</p>
