<p>Hey guys,
I am applying to Columbia RD. I have a query and was wondering if anyone here could help me with that.</p>
<p>Well, I am conducting research under a professor at a university. Since it's still under progress, I will not be able to submit a research paper to Columbia. In that case, will an abstract suffice, illustrating the work I have been doing till date?</p>
<p>Moreover, since the deadlines are really close, will it count against me to do several research projects but not submit any research materials i.e. paper or abstract?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
