<p>Best of luck to those of you applying… I know the wait is killer</p>
<p>I’m so nervous but I really am not expecting anything good from columbia either so I guess it balances.</p>
<p>I know I’m going to get rejected.</p>
<p>Part of me can’t help but wonder if a transcript got lost or something was missed in the mail.</p>
<p>@jubilee - Didn’t you use Columbia’s document tracking portal?? It was better than that of the other Ivies. :)</p>
<p>Less than 3 days to go now.</p>
<p>Anyone have any stats for how many Intn’l students Columbia accepts on average per year with Financial aid??
I think it’s pretty low, but I just want a number to console myself when I see that rejection! Haha!! :p</p>
<p>^According to this site, Columbia gives aid to 23.8% of the international students</p>
<p>[Fewer</a> international students receiving Columbia funding](<a href=“http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2012/04/30/fewer-international-students-receiving-columbia-funding]Fewer”>Fewer international students receiving Columbia funding - Columbia Spectator)</p>
<p>Did anyone get the email yesterday from Columbia about the deadline to sign up for the summer programs for high school students? I know this shouldn’t indicate acceptance, but I find it odd that they would send this if I were to be rejected?</p>
<p>unless it was for columbia students only, nah, it means nothing</p>
<p>but eeeek, columbia’s my first choice >.<</p>
<p>California1234–I got it yesterday too and I’m a junior. It was just an email they sent out to everybody. Good luck for Thursday though! Hope you get in. =]</p>
<p>This waiting is getting on my nerves.
I woke up today, thinking it was Wednesday and I would finally hear about Duke. Then I saw my phone. ITS ONLY TUESDAY. :-(</p>
<p>Pretty sure I am going to wake up tomorrow, thinking it is Thursday because I want to hear about ALL my other outstanding apps. Thursday is the last day for me.</p>
<p>Even if they’re all rejections, at least I’ll know where I stand and I can review where I AM accepted and make a final decision. This waiting is horrendous.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes, but I don’t think they tracked mailed items like Harvard.</p>
<p>@maxyend - Thanks for that link!!</p>
<p>@jubilee - Wouldn’t know. Didn’t apply to Harvard!! Haha! :p</p>
<p>Everybody who’s freaking out about the FA portal, relax. It’s the same for me too. The documents and messages tabs just disappeared.
Random question-what order are you guys checking the ivy decisions? :P</p>
<p>Cornell (already accepted lol)
Dartmouth
Harvard
Penn
Brown
Columbia
Princeton
Yale</p>
<p>From first to last</p>
<p>In whatever order they show up!
But if I could choose, it would be:
Columbia
Yale
Penn
Harvard</p>
<p>Really weird FA portal for me too. :/</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I just imagined someone having applied to all these schools, and then on Ivy day checking each one and every single one rejected them. How crushing must that be?</p>
<p>Anyway, that’s obviously not you, congrats on Cornell.</p>
<p>^^ A friend of mine last year applied to all the Ivies (sans Dartmouth) and was promptly rejected from each and every one. Never seen a man so dejected.</p>
<p>@Maxyend - I might just be the person you are looking for. An all Ivy reject. I didn’t apply to Yale & Harvard though, just because I knew I would be rejected anyway!! Haha!!</p>
<p>Anyway… I’ve decided that I’ll check in random order just because I expect them all to be rejections!!</p>
<p>UPenn
Columbia (likely)
Princeton
Yale
Harvard (whenever they email me)</p>
<p>Penn
Yale
Columbia
Princeton
Johns Hopkins (I know it’s not an Ivy, but it’s at the same time.)
Harvard</p>
