| OFFICIAL Early Decision Applicants Thread (Columbia Class of 2014)
I've noticed that we have quite a few ED applicants here on CC so if you're applying Early Decision for Columbia's Class of 2014, come over and introduce yourself.
I'll start:
I'm an international applicant from Singapore, applying to the College to pursue interests in economics, literature and creative writing.
Sent in my Part 1 quite a while ago, and am spending time fine-tuning my Part 2. Planning to send in a creative writing supplement.

We need a thread like this, thanks srrinath!
I'm a half-Japanese-half-white girl from Southern California. I guess you could call me an introverted drama geek. I realize I'm aiming high when I say I want to become an actress, but hey, if it all goes down the drain, at least I'll have my *flawless* Core education. |

For the interview, does some random e-mail address show up in your inbox with a subject of Columbia Interview or something? Either I havn't been contacted yet, or the e-mail is in my junk mail. I sent in Part 1 early September.

^ That's what I received. The email address was the interviewer's office address, and the email was titled "Columbia University Interview".

I am also from the great land of Singapore, applying ED for CC. Submitted Part I on the day it came out, August 5th. No interview yet.
I guess I am on the other extreme huh?

MLELS, I submitted part one of my app about two weeks ago, and still haven't been contacted, but I guess it hasn't been that long all things considered. I'll let you know when/if I do!

Sounds good. Its been about a month for me, and it's not like I live out in the boondocks or anything, so I hope I get one eventually.

| It's unlikely that it's in your junk. Your interview assignment is not a random computer generated mail. In my case I got a handwritten (well, figuratively speaking) email from my interviewer with the title "Your Columbia Interview". I submitted Part 1 at the start of Sep.
Please note though, not everyone gets an interview and likewise, not having one will not disadvantage your app.
