Columbia Class of 2020 ED Applicant Thread

I’m actually so scared every time I think about it my stomach sinks

Guys, where is the video?

@alpha525 It was posted by Columbia Admissions on Vimeo. @pancakebook44 posted it on this thread this morning (or afternoon, depending on the time zone in which you live).

@iagoboy1 Paper acceptances come after digital ones, but I don’t know when exactly.

@PilotKhyle are we going to have a countdown? maybe announce every 10 hours down or something :wink:

@dr0wning That is what I thought till I saw the video so you think they put acceptances in priority USPS enevelopes and placed them in mail baskets 4 days ago and are waiting to mail them till Dec. 10?

LOL I should have hidden under a box on campus when they were packing everything, then jumped out and lunatically check if I made it.

hahaha this video is so stressful… I thought they said that this year they will not be sending letters due to an “environment act”.

The video of the letters going into crates looks like video from two years ago when S1 was accepted. I guess they are going green with recycling and reusing.

I cried too!! This whole process is frickin emotional @969028

@fizzing I’m not completely sure but I think they’re sending some letters but not all of them

@graceann hmm thats weird. Maybe they will only send letters to the accepted students?

if I get rejected I’m gonna tell them to mail it to me and I’ll frame it

@fizzing Yeah that makes sense!

On the email with the date decisions are released it said:

The Columbia community is committed to environmental responsibility; in keeping with this commitment, we will provide some admissions decisions only online, not via regular mail. You may request that a copy of your decision letter be mailed to you after you receive it online;

The video is definitely from last year… The dean of admission wore the blue outfit in last year’s news, unless she wears it every year (which I high doubt)

If I didn’t get any emails – (aside from the ones about the decision date, the financial aid deadlines, and receiving my application) – what should I be thinking? Bad news or good news?

I don’t think it should really matter @cityalexis I think that the only reason I was getting emails from the beginning is because I signed up for the promotional emails that are sent to everyone who’s name is on the list

OH HELL THAT VIDEO MADE ME SO EMOTIONAL NO

GUYS it’s only 48 hours and 21 minutes away wtf
