Columbia Class of 2020 ED Applicant Thread

@PilotKhyle OHHH gotcha thanks. Because I was reading this and was like “I definitely have zero shot at all then.” I feel a tiny bit better! Thanks

@twix123 nice man. I’m just hoping to break 2 minutes in the 800 and get under 70 in the 500. Good luck with your goals.

I just confirmed with an ED applicant last year that he got in without receiving anything from Columbia. So for those who didn’t get any emails or letters, don’t despair, because there’s absolutely no way to tell whether you got in or not; for those who got promotional emails, you could potentially be deferred. But chances are slim either way, so hang tight.

@twix123 thanks for clearing that up! Makes more sense now :slight_smile:

@manmusthaveacode Thank! Hope you get sub two! Never ran the 500 before, but good luck!

19 hours and counting X_X #-o @-)

This is my dream school but my test scores literally suck. It’s so upsetting. I’ve worked so hard to get to where I’m at and my test scores are ruining everything, lol.

I’m so sad lol

@Yomo710 I feel the same exact way as you. 100%!!! I want this so bad but the SAT…

I’m being realistic and trying to accept that I won’t get in and I’m just so sad

@dorothylewes your name is kinda distinct and I vaguely remembered it! lmao if you remember me my name is Te____nn
@BrynMawr61 the majority of people who are admitted don’t get likely letters!
@twix123 I agree, of course they don’t want students who have bad study habits. But “getting bad grades 2nd semester means you will fail as a freshman at Columbia” sounds like such an exaggeration, haha

@BrynMawr61 Like I literally have such a great story to tell, honestly. I came to America as a refugee, started a business in middle school and recently started my charity. Columbia is like the only place I feel I can fit.

@TrazCapDEV thanks! lmao compare this calmness to like 60 pages back when we both didn’t get that email and came up with some weird conspiracy theories

@Yomo710 I really hope you get in! You deserve it for sure!

@dr0wning I’m actually extremely composed right now, doing my latin homework, listening to music, about to take a shower and then go to bed. I’m happy rather than scared to know my result for some reason…

@twix123 Hope to see you run next year at Baker Field. Go Lions!

@TrazCapDEV I just watched this short movie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7r93LEFjpCA) that I first stumbled upon from reddit. I accidentally closed the tab, but today when I was watching college acceptance reaction videos (I know, I know) it came up in the sidebar! It’s really interesting.
I think I really can’t stand the wait anymore. Though I’d be devastated if I got rejected, it would be a relief because waiting and stressing has been horrible.

@BrynMawr61 Thanks man! Good luck to you!
