Columbia GS Fall 2024 Early/Regular Decision Thread

Since there wasn’t any thread for this year so I made one. I have just finished submitting all my documents, including LOR. Are there any other priority early-action applicants here?

I sent in my application the day it came out Dec 1 and got all my LOR and everything else within that week. Spent all summer on my essay. I’m praying for March 1st 5 pm to come quicker

You submitted super early wow, good luck to both of us. May I ask what your stats are? I am an international student and currently in my 2nd semester at a state school, 4.0 GPA but I got a low HS GPA and I hope my experience in army could help.

I am also a Priority Early Action applicant. The wait is driving me crazy…just gotta distract myself until March 1st:((

also applied priority early action. can’t wait to find out

Same here… I’m literally checking the portal for no reason just to see if it changes from “submitted” to things like under review

Literally. I called them though, gave my application id number, and they said it was under review

My gpa is 3.87, majoring in CS. I attend a local nyc community college. I’m also a foreign combat soldier veteran. I’m in phi theta kappa, honors club and transfer scholar network student. I am a full time student putting myself thru college myself with a full time job. We just gotta keep high hopes and be positive! I’m guessing Columbia is both our dream schools haha

wow!!! that’s awesome!!

Oh and also I’m bout to be in my last semester as a sophomore!

Nice, cheers, fellow veteran, wish that all of us get in on March 1st!

Nice, now it’s just a month and a half of waiting and keeping up our grades.

I feel like as time goes on I get more and more insecure about my application just bc it’s lurking in the back of my mind at all times :joy:

That’s me… especially after rereading my essay, I found two minor grammar errors. :sob:

That should be ok though!

We have to wait for like six more weeks. Does your status still say “Submitted”?

Yeah, it’s driving me insane. I think they send an email when your application moves to “review”, which, according to the forums from the previous years, happens on or near Feb.10th.

oh I didn’t know that. I keep checking the portal hoping a decision will magically appear, lol

I just received an email saying “ Thank you for submitting your application for admission to Columbia University School of General Studies! You may track…” I submitted my application on Jan 14th including every other material and is this like a confirmation email? And also my status hasn”t changed, it still says “submitted.”

Huh i haven’t gotten that email. Oof
