OFFICIAL COLUMBIA FALL 2015 TRANSFER THREAD

I tried to do the ‘write a little bit every day’ method but by the last week in February I had basically nothing so I wound up writing everything over the course of a few days.

I tried that too, I started all of my applications in Jan… But then my spring semester started and I had little to no time. What other schools did you apply to?

I applied to Columbia SEAS and Swarthmore. I totally get the not having time, there’s so much other work that anything not due that day has to take the back seat. Where else did you apply?

I applied to 15 schools in total but as for private schools 11. NYU, Harvard (I’m very doubtful of getting in) Columbia CAS, BU, Barnard, SU, HWS, Spelman, Marist. I think I applied to just apply I have gotten into 8 schools so far so now I am just waiting for 7 more

Nice! Congratulations on all your acceptances! Where do you currently attend?

Thank You! I currently attend a community college: BMCC. I think that’s why I am so paranoid about getting into half of the schools I applied to. You?

@helix96 about the penn rejection lol
coming out of nyu
3.93 GPA 4.0 at the Midterm.
2280 SAT
3.6 HS (unweighted)

@nycgirl20 I currently attend Northeastern. I got rejected by almost everywhere last year which is why I’m super stressed.

@giantsquid Wow those are super impressive!

@helix96 we have to keep hope alive, we may be lucky! I’m pretty sure you have good stats so don’t worry.

lol i feel like cc is slowly driving me insane. i can’t close this tab, and every time i see a new little red number in my notifications at the top of the page i feel this strange rush of happiness… i’m supposed to be studying for my midterm tomorrow but the fact that i’m still on here tells you how well that’s going…

@jellymuffin That’s very late for midterm. Most schools around me (including my school) are either starting or finishing the finals. Do you go to a foreign university?

lol I have the same problem! I have three finals this week but I keep clicking the refresh button.

@transferringbud nope, it’s because I’m on the quarter system. Boy do I wish I were already in finals week…

Wow, we finished last week and grades have already been posted. I have nothing going on for the next week and a half so… refresh, refresh, refresh.

how I wish I were that lucky, two more weeks for me

Been off since last Thursday…been thinking about these transfer decisions way too much since I have nothing to do now lol

same lol… last final tomorrow can’t wait to get it over!

I only got into Cal Poly and Arizona State. Waiting on USC, Harvard, and Columbia. Wait listed at UC San Diego. And appealing at UCLA and UC Irvine. Rejected to MIT and Berkeley. Sigh.

I agree. I should be writing final papers not checking my e-mail every 10 mins… I just got accepted to Penn, but I really want to know if I have a chance with Columbia. Is it true the decision will be released either tomorrow or next Tuesday?
