<p>Did Columbia send out likely letters? Is there a figure of how many applicants receive one? Thanks.</p>
<p>They did send out likely letters - I heard about 200 or 300 of the 2500 (or slightly less) students who are accepted (at any of the Ivies) get letters of intent... So, the majority of those who are accepted don't get them. That's just a ballpark figure though; I'm not positive!</p>
