<p>Has everyone been contacted for their interview? I’m still waiting and I’m super worried that I don’t stand a chance/won’t be called for an interview</p>
<p>has anyone been asked by Columbia to submit 1st quarter grades? i heard sometimes they call and ask for them… i have 2 Bs this quarter which makes for a really bad downward trend</p>
