Columbia Hopefuls...will it be the end if its a rejection?

<p>If you get rejected from Columbia, will it be the end of the world for you?</p>

<p>For me, I’m quite practical in everything. I’ll simply look over to the other colleges that I’m applying to. I value every college that I’m applying to with the same passion I have for Columbia…they are all staircases to my goals…and perhaps I would try one day to enter Columbia from it’s Grad doors :)</p>

<p>While I hope I can have that attitude when my inevitable rejection comes, I truthfully want Columbia more than anything I’ve ever wanted in my life! I know its pathetic but still…</p>

<p>Reminds me of my 9th grade history teacher, he was waitlisted from Columbia but got accepted to Princeton. lol? apparently interviews really do matter x_x</p>

<p>i feel exactly the same as kmigasde does. there isn’t much that i wouldn’t give to go to columbia. i love this school.</p>

<p>but, at the same time, my second choice is penn state UP, and i quite love that place. not as much as columbia…but enough that if i get rejected, i won’t be totally miserable going there.</p>
