guys, do think I can get into Columbia with a 2020 sat superscore? I know it's weak but my school transcript, school report and extra- curriculars are very good? I also have a 4.0gpa.

chances of getting in are pretty good for columbia... they like transfers and people with "interesting life stories," so they may be forgiving if your HS gpa sucked but you have a compelling story as to why...

i got in to columbia U as a community college student in chicago. granted i have a 4.0 and am a skilled writer. idk, if you can write well enough chances are looking up for you.

My daughter applied to Columbia. GPA 4.3 , SAT 2270, some research experience. she is waiting to hear but the longer she waits, the less she wants to go. she got into UVA. I think if you get in, celebrate and enjoy. If you don't, understand that no matter what school you attend, you are in control of your life and your education.

I'm not trolling... I DID get a likely from Columbia. Likely letters are completely separate from SCEA admissions. I kno I wasn't the only one...
