@fratributle is yours not yellow when you click on the waitlist response form button?
Nah its yellow with “Registration is no longer available because the registration deadline has passed.”
If we don’t hear back today, I think it’ll be after the July 1 announcement about fall semester
The “Registration is no longer available because the registration deadline has passed” message has been there for me whenever I click on the waitlist reply form since like early June. I could see the form again yesterday, but it’s gone again today. Hopefully we hear back soon!! Pretty sure it’s gonna be bad news (still hoping for the best though)!
I just checked my May 8 waitlist letter, which says,
“If places in the class do become available, we typically notify candidates no earlier than June 1 and no later than June 30.”
I think think the “typically notify” language is the key here. Since this is not a “typical year” due to Covid, I agree that we are not likely to hear until sometime in July, after Columbia announces its plan for its Fall classes and they get a chance to gauge the reaction of their current student body (i.e. how many current students requests a gap year, deferral, etc.) to their Fall plans.
Fingers crossed that Columbia will decide that they have room for all of us.
Best of luck to all!
No updates yet ugh
Do you think they would have sent any update by 5pm?
Well I checked and there’s nothing
Looking at the Class of 2024 thread, some people seem to have gotten off the waitlist at 5:15 EST
Are we supposed to get an email?
I remember not getting an email on May 8th when they sent the waitlist email. A few days prior to May 8, I do remember getting an email saying that decisions would happen soon.
Nothing… guess we have to wait till July
Wouldn’t they at least tell us that they’re extending the waitlist to July? I’m tired of getting my hopes up every Friday and not at least getting an update
It would definitely be appreciated
I think we have to see what the official Columbia Fall 2020 plans are to gauge current student reaction and project new spots for transfers.
For example, if Columbia is “online only” for Sophomores & Seniors this fall (some schools are doing this for "social distancing reasons) some current students may take the semester off.
I am just speculating…
No change on my applicant status page either. I agree that we will not likely hear anything until July, after they announce their Fall plans and gauge the reaction of their current students.
@fratributle Mine is still green???
I’m not sure if you’re talking about the check mark right below the bold “Forms”. lol
Hopefully this week!
Agree, perhaps we will hear even today or tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
