Columbia University Transfer Thread Fall 2019

Anyone else shuffling Vampire Weekend songs imagining what it would be like to have it blasting in your headphones while walking around Columbia’s campus? I am so shoook…

@jasontrang OMG yes I feel

When I called them today, they said they will send out an notice shortly when decisions will come out. But shortly could mean anything lol

Columbia usually sends out a notice a week earlier from decision release. They did so for undergrad decisions and as for previous transfer admissions. So I’m guessing they would send out probably today or tomorrow (more probable imo), and get our decisions next Thurs (5/9) or Fri (5/10). Don’t count me on this bc who knows, but I really don’t think they would push it to later than the end of next week (5/10)

man that sucks because for the last 2 years they’ve released decisions on the first week of may. Of course now they wait another week lol

@uqsujuj Mind sharing your stats with us? That sounds like a pretty good sign that you’re in!

@lolhalp @Dreamlessnewmember @techsavvygirl thanks for the thoughts! I guess we’ll find out soon then. I’ll come back and update whatever the result is and will be happy to share my stats if I get in. Good luck to y’all too!!

@jasontrang literally me! And vampire weekend’s new album comes out tomorrow! I was so stoked when I found out that it was gonna be the same day Columbia would probably release decisions, but now it looks like that’s not gonna happen ?

I know, I’m actually so annoyed decisions are not today…and we haven’t even received an email letting us know when they will be released! But I love it that we’re collectively freaking out - it’s nice to hear from people in the same situation…

Just saw the info on my applicant portal; decisions will be released on May 8th, Wednesday after 5pm EST

hate waiting for another few days, while writing final papers. so hard to focus lolll

At least we have a date and time. Agh so nervous

@uqsujuj I was wondering, do you have anything special on your portal? Thanks!

I just called their Admissions Office and they said decisions will be out on May 15th…

@leanne07 That’s weird. My portal says the same as @youxilll (Wed., May 8th @5pm ET).

My portal also says May 8th, so I think someone in Admissions just didn’t know.

@TurboPlo mine also says the decision will be released on May 8th after 5. Nothing else!

Hi Just wanna ask did a lot of people receive the interview?

wait… I thought Columbia college doesn’t interview transfer students

interview?!
