Congrats! Just wondering, when did you submit your app?

I see you are a questbridge applicant, do you think the likely email could be different from the general likely letter columbia sends and specifically for questbridge applicants? congrats

Thanks! I submitted it December 19th. It didn't mention Questbridge at all. And it was the engineering school.

My D got her email at 4:25 this afternoon as well. She applied to Columbia College.
Grats to all who got one. That's 2-for-2 so far for her top 4, I'm in shock, not sure my heart can take all this . . .

I got one as well, and it too was at 4:25 EST. And yes, it was for the engineering school.

I got my likely letter emailed at 4:25 for Fu Foundation as well! So is this like unofficial acceptance or what?
