la monera · 11-21-2008, 07:42 PM

I used to be, a long time ago. I lived in Morningside Heights, actually, a block away from columbia.

i know what you mean! i'm holding off on all other apps right now because im really just not interested in these other schools, but i'm so nervous! i don't know if i should just get over it and start on them!

jpd8891 · 11-21-2008, 08:43 PM

ya. i'm in the same boat as you. i have no desire to do any more apps. but i know if worse comes to worse it's gonna suck to have to get them all done.

hpl629 · 11-21-2008, 11:04 PM

yeahhh especially over christmas break. i'd rather get them all done just so i can at least have christmas break to relax and get over my disappointment if it doesn't work out.

i cant figure out how to start my other apps... i keep thinking about columbia and coming back this forum lol... just gotta get my self to start the other apps somehow. Any advice?

glockenspiel · 11-22-2008, 11:07 AM

ahh i'm freaking out. after reading all of this, i've just realized that i need to go send my first quarter grades and ap scores.

and my interview is monday. deeeeeep breath. good luck to everyone.

p.s. i'm on the same boat when it comes to doing other apps. i've pretty much ignored them.

alejis · 11-22-2008, 04:45 PM

yeah, plus I'm not going to spend all of that money for what may turn out to be no reason. But yeah, if I don't get in it's going to be even harder, I don't know how I'm ever going to fill out those other apps.. I really hope I don't have to..

yeah, the same thing happened to me! this forum is good for that kind of stuff! you realize that you're missing things that you didn't even know you had to send in. I ended up sending my AP scores and first quarter grades like 2 days ago, all because of this forum.. phewww THANKS GUYSS

hpl629 · 11-22-2008, 06:22 PM

just don't think about columbia when you're filling out the other apps. pretend it has nothing to do with whether you get into columbia or not. and then, if you do get in, you just don't need to submit them! yay!

unless we find out sooner than the 15th.. which i hope we do.
..does anyone know yet what day we find out online?

alejis · 11-23-2008, 02:26 PM

haha i know, but then it will be a wonderful (or horrifying) surprise, and time will have gone by faster

i thought the official date for online was the 15th?

fishgills · 11-23-2008, 02:31 PM

And an ED'er from last year said it was at 5 PM EST

BleedingBlue · 11-23-2008, 02:43 PM

From what I know, as the vaguely "mid-December" date draws closer, an e-mail will be sent stating the exact date and time decisions will be posted online.

Other forums have led me to believe that decisions have been released at least as early as December 12 in the past.

hpl629 · 11-23-2008, 02:50 PM

yeah i've heard that a lot of colleges tell you at 5 pm on Friday, so maybe this year it will be on December 12, since that's a friday! i hope so... :/

jmeelynn · 11-23-2008, 03:09 PM

i hope so too! lol, i just wanna know.. but then again, it could be really disappointing =/
