OFFICIAL COLUMBIA FALL 2016 TRANSFER THREAD

Oh my god I was accepted!!!

“If your interest in Columbia remains very high, we strongly recommend that you submit a very brief (one-page maximum) supplementary statement of your own by emailing ugrad-confirm@columbia.edu by Friday, May 27, 2016. We do not conduct interviews for students on the waitlist, and we advise against the submission of any additional recommendations.”

Anybody knows how this supplementary statement should be?

@anonymous55 please post your stats! and congrats :slight_smile:

@csquared19

College GPA (including Midterm Report): 4.0
Entering as: Junior
SAT: 2220

HS GPA: 5.07/4.30 W (they didn’t do any unweighted GPAs)

I spent the last two years at a university ranked around #50 by USNWR.

PM me if you want to know any more!

Accepted! Congrats to all y’all who got in, and to others don’t give up hope. Keep believing in yourself, you never know where that faith and confidence will get you

Was any of you international students who applied for financial aid accepted?
Rejected for Computer Engineering.
For the curious, my stats:
International /nontraditional student
SAT 2060
GPA community college: 3.9 (taking now differential equations).

Rejected, CAS - Math/Econ

Waitlisted… I’m not even sad, I’m just furious X(

Did the rejection/waitlisted letters indicate the yield?

For those who were accepted, financial aid seems to be working now :slight_smile:

Waitlist letter said over 2,000 people applied! @stressedgirl13

@eternaldream Yeah I just saw my FA award. They were good with FA for me!

@anonymous55 Yeah, my FA award is really great too! A good step better than Cornell. Pluses of an Ivy that meets 100% need without loans!

Mine still isn’t there… I called the office and they said to just wait for my package which is what I guess I’ll have to do…

@stressedgirl13 can you please PM me

To everyone who was accepted, the link that was posted a few pages back in this thread about accepted students works now and leads to an invitation to an admitted transfer student day on Friday May 20 and also gives a little more information about transfer credit and stuff.

Does anyone now when we can expect to get the transfer credit evaluation ? Do they usually award all credits?

Does anyone know if there is a Facebook group for admitted students?

Accepted and looking forward to the bb blue

I know it’s a bit early to ask, because most of us are still waiting to hear back from other schools as well, but I was wondering if anyone that was accepted is thinking they may not attend? Also curious is any of the waitlisted people declined the offer, or accepted but plan/are hoping to get in somewhere else?
