<p>Of course we will
as I told you via PM itās just pure logic that they havenāt delayed their answer just out of fun and machiavelism!! Also mlleJack as you applied very late in May, itās kinda of normal that a decision was made about your dossier only last weekā¦</p>
<p>As of Moonandstars, my friend you must be on the edge I donāt know. They either took their time to take a decision or they waited for some crazy guy to trun down the admission he was offered (I donāt know, Iām just trying to build up plausible theories here ^^).</p>
<p>But if I were you guys, I would relax and start saving to buy a nice French champagne bottle ;)</p>
<p>I also applied late. They got my application fee after June 1 as well as my college transcript. They also couldnāt locate my high school transcript even after it was submitted. I understand why my decision is lateā¦but at this stageā¦we should have heard something by now! In any event, Iāll probably get something in the mail by tomorrow.</p>
<p>But I thank you for making me just a bit more confident. All hope is not lost. :|</p>
<p>I really hope to meet all you thoughtful and intelligent students this fall on campus!</p>
<p>If youāre right, Iāll bring the Champagne bottle from France (and the Champagne region) myself and weāll cheer all together (we might actually need more than one ;-)</p>
<p>Iāll hold you to that!</p>
<p>;-)</p>
<p>Iām cheating, Iām French and I will have to go back to renew my visa
but Iām not from that region so Iāll have to drive/take the train :-p</p>
<p>What am I hearing here???
I was gonna say Iāll bring the champagne as Iām French but I see Iām not the only one!
I really hope youāll have a nice surprise then mlleJack as Iām now very curious to know what made you apply to GS (as itās not for the GS/Sciences Po. degree).</p>
<p>PS: of course weāll have more than one ;)</p>
<p>tl;dr: this thread has become a GS Fall 2011 French invasion thread.</p>
<p>I also had doubts, with a nickname like yours ;-)</p>
<p>and btw, you can also bring some champagne. We can ever have enough of it!</p>
<p>Like probably all GS student, my story is long and very different. Thatās what makes us ānon traditional studentā right? If we end up meeting in NYC weāll have plenty of things to share indeed!</p>
<p>We might have invaded this thread but at least weāre not speaking french⦠yetā¦</p>
<p>When I thought that the wait was over I received the news that Iām on the waitlistā¦</p>
<p>They say that the waitlist is not ranked and that we will receive a final decision no later than August the 8th. All hope is not lost it seems⦠but the wait is not over yetā¦</p>
<p>Do you know if people generally get admitted when placed on the waitlist? Do I have a chance?
<em>finger crossed</em></p>
<p>OMG. Such a long wait! At least there is still hope. Donāt worryā¦everything will work out. I havenāt heard one thing! If I was told I was on a waitlist then I would know that there was at least still hope. Now itās possible for a blue letter to show up in my mailbox. I am terrified now more than ever.</p>
<p>Right after I posted the above comment the mail-man showed up!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, nothing from Columbia yet. My heart must have stopped beating for about two minutes.</p>
<p>Well, itās been fun.</p>
<p>I recieved my letter yesterday informing me I will not be attending Columbia. On to other things, I suppose. Fingers crossed for you @moonandstars. Youāll have to hear SOMETHING soon.</p>
<p>I am so very sorry to hear that :-(</p>
<p>Youāre degree, career, and life is what you make of it! Iām sure youāll go far, no matter where you had your undergraduate degree :-)</p>
<p>Good luck :-)</p>
<p>Iām sorry to hear that Februarystars
We are all on pins and needles.
I was praying that everyone would get inā¦sucks!</p>
<p>I do wish you good luck and a promising future.</p>
<p>Iām sorry to hear that, februarystars. Maybe you can try again for the spring?? I really hopes you would get it. Also, do you mind posting your stats?? Good luck to everyone else!</p>
<p>Hi everyone,this is my first message though I have been reading the forum for a while.</p>
<p>Sorry februarystars and goodluck.Do you mind telling us how far you live from Columbia?</p>
<p>Hi funshol,</p>
<p>Were you accepted to GS or are you still waiting?</p>
<p>I am still waiting@ moonandstars</p>
<p>This whole obscurity is killing</p>
<p>I understand completely. Good luck to you. Only a few of us on this forum still have not heard anything yet.</p>
