OFFICIAL Columbia University Class of 2017 ED Results

<p>No offense, but HateSMUS’s response to Illuminati2 should honestly be the last words out of your mouth when asked that question. I mean realistically Columbia’s prestige definitely contributed to me (and hopefully many others) falling in love with the school, but the main reason I want to go to Columbia is because of the people. I live about 2 hours away so I visit often and the students who go there all seem like people I would love being around and the campus is beyond gorgeous and Manhattan offers a really one-of-a-kind experience that not only cultures you but exposes you to the world. THOSE should be the reasons why everyone here applied to Columbia ED.</p>

<p>Sorry for the rant. I just really get upset when people say “oh because it’s an Ivy” to questions like that. Maybe this waiting thing is making me stressed out…</p>

<p>@mrspotter Who writes a college essay about Drake? And who interns at BET?</p>

<p>I’ve been checking my email literally every 5 minutes from my phone. It vibrates everything I gets new email lol.</p>

<p>Erm I just got an email from Columbia saying my FA is complete.</p>

<p>At the bottom it says Early Decision results will be out on Thursday, December 8th after 5:00 PM EST. </p>

<p>I am 99% sure they meant Dec. 6th, right?</p>

<p>Here’s what it says at the bottom:</p>

<p>“PLEASE NOTE: Document tracking for both admissions documents and financial aid documents has been taken down in preparation for releasing Early Decision results on Thursday, December 8th after 5:00pm (EST). Admitted students will be able to track their financial aid documents online at <a href=“https://admissions.columbia.edu%5B/url%5D”>https://admissions.columbia.edu</a> again as of 6pm (EST) on December 8th. If you are missing any necessary financial aid credentials there is still sufficient time to submit them.”</p>

<p>@feedback411 omg is that the email we’ve been waiting for??? i didn’t get anything. omgomgomfomgofmfg freaking out</p>

<p>email just came out.</p>

<p>Thank you for your Early Decision application to Columbia University. We are nearing the end of our application review and will soon notify Early Decision candidates of our decisions.</p>

<p>The Columbia community is committed to environmental responsibility; in keeping with this commitment, we will provide some admissions decisions only online, not via regular mail. You may request that a copy of your decision letter be mailed to you after you receive it online; further instructions will be available when you check your decision. We plan to post all decisions online on Thursday, December 6, 2012, after 5:00pm (Eastern Time).</p>

<p>I just got the email!! I can’t wait! </p>

<p>So nervous!</p>

<p>is it bad that i didn’t get one yet???</p>

<p>im so nervous and excited that i think im going to puke</p>

<p>Probably a technical issue, emails can take some time, imagine sending over 1000!</p>

<p>I’d wait until tomorrow, or check your spam!!</p>

<p>I’m going to cry</p>

<p>Got the email. My password’s all set.
@queenofcreys, I feel like I’m going to hurl too.</p>

<p>everything i’ve ever heard about college confidential aside, i hope that we’ll all be there for each other on thursday night, be it for comfort or congratulations.</p>

<p>@OrangeD00D i just got it! right after i read your comment, i got the emaillll. i was getting really nervous!!</p>

<p>i didnt get one yet either!, haha freaking out, but i am so happy that Dec 6th was officially confirmed!</p>

<p>Thanks Sallylush, you definitely applied for the right reasons.
I on the other hand applied for the wrong ones. I live about 25 minutes from Columbia and I have 5 family members who’ve been there so I’ve been there quite a bit and I know that I would love it there, but I also admit that I could be just as happy virtually anywhere.
I question these kids who are painting their rooms blue and stalking this website 24/7 in desperation for Columbia. If you’ve only been to the place for 2 hours, how can you possibly know if it’s “a perfect fit”? And as for those who consider it a “gut feeling” - let’s just say I wouldn’t dedicate the next four years of my life based on a “gut feeling.”
I’ll be the first to admit I want to go to a school with a good name pretty much solely because I want to impress women. I don’t really care which one because I know I can be happy anywhere.</p>

<p>HAHAHAHAHAHA “solely because I want to impress women”
At least you’re honest… :wink:
Where are you from if you don’t mind me asking?</p>
