Official Columbia University Early Decision 2016 Thread

<p>Hey fellow Columbia ED’ers. I have to say, this whole process has been horrible for my blood pressure, appetite, and emotions! I don’t want my children to go through this. Every time I think of tomorrow (which is ALL the time), I get the most nauseating feeling in my stomach, anybody feel the same way?</p>

<p>Good luck to all. We all deserve this.</p>

<p>Although, Mr. Rochester is lovely as well…</p>

<p>@rdjrlover Haha don’t even get me started on how bad this whole ordeal has been for my health. On Monday when I got the email that contained the pin number, I became so sick. I had an anxiety attack and literally couldn’t speak to anyone. it’s better now, but yeah.</p>

<p>I basically haven’t been able to eat anything until at dinner I forced some soup into my mouth. Then, I got sick to my stomach and had to throw it all up. The most disgusting moment of my life. I wonder what’s gonna happen when i actually get rejected, if this is what’s happening even before. :(</p>

<p>I’ve been feeling sick since this morning, and I’ve been getting a cold… hopefully whatever I get will reassure my body that it can end HIGH STRESS MODE before winter break and then finals.</p>

<p>As lovely and Byronic and brooding Mr. Rochester is, it’s still Mr. Darcy for me. Who can argue with 10 000 pounds a year and his closet romanticism? </p>

<p>And something about locking up your insane wife in the attic doesn’t seem right to me. I never felt that Rochester was completely vilified, even after he lost his left hand and eyesight.</p>

<p>@TwinShadow, hate to be the one that deviates from positivity, but it probably means nothing. Columbia requires scores to be sent directly from the testing agency. If you had sent them through your school/self-reported they may as well have disregarded them. I would consider myself lucky had I been in your situation. I think it means you are one of the final applicants being reviewed because for the last month they had been expecting your scores to be sent. Now, they can review your application. So, no negatives, but it is over my head how an official score request this late could aid your chances. Good luck, though!</p>

<p>I feel reassured that I’m not the only one getting physically sick over this, actually.(: I mean, it’s terrible that we are, but yeah.(:</p>

<p>Oh, Mean Disney Girls… pinkwhig is fabulous, though they were better when they had all the 1776 clips up.</p>

<p>I would marry Darcy in a heartbeat. Actually less than that. I would preemptively go up to him and be like, I accept your proposal of marriage.</p>

<p>And that youtube video had me crying, it was hilarious!</p>

<p>How about Mr.Darchester? Perfect, in my opinion! LOL!!!
I wasn’t able to eat anything today, either… :frowning:
So bad for my nerves!!!</p>

<p>ahh I so so feel you guys. I have a bald spot from anxiously itching. like right in front. not cute.</p>

<p>Every SINGLE time I go to sleep, I wake up due to a Columbia dream. Does anyone else get this?</p>

<p>Hahaha Darchester. Everyone wins! </p>

<p>Oh my goodness, a bald spot?! That’s terrible! Ugh, maybe you can cover it up with a hat? :/</p>

<p>@neiro6 I’m definitely willing to watch MG with someone who shares my passion for memorizing the script!</p>

<p>@mustangman Thanks for your honesty. I’m still not expecting anything. Although it isn’t necessarily a positive that they called so last-minute to receive my scores, I view it as definitely not being a negative.</p>

<p>i wish my school would let me!! and im a girl too :(</p>

<p>if i do buy one, im sending columbia the bill.</p>

<p>and yes about the dream-for the past 2 nights ive had like a lucid dream about opening my laptop at school, and its flashing “REJECTED” in red on the decision page. ahhh tomorrows going to be the longest day everrrr</p>

<p>Oh my god, I definitely feel you guys… I’ve been nervously biting my nails compulsively and have not even started my homework yet… And ALSO I have midterms next week. I hate this!</p>

<p>For you guys who really want to go, how are you going to deal with rejection? I’ve basically been telling myself I’m getting rejected. All my friends are reassuring me saying I’ll get accepted but it makes it THAT much worse!!! DOESN’T IT SUCK WHEN PEOPLE DO THAT?!?! I also regret telling people. I’m telling everyone that I’m not checking it until the 15th, so people don’t ask me on Friday!</p>

<p>I’ve been lurking this thread since the very beginning, but this is my first post! It’s great to know that the nervous feeling is definitely a worldwide phenomena. :wink: You all sound amazing and I really pray we end up being future classmates at CU. With decisions (let’s be optimistic and say acceptances) just about 19 hours away I want to wish everyone the best! Before I head off to do all the homework I’ve yet to begin, I hope you all have a good night’s rest! You’ll need it for your acceptance party! :wink: C’mon let’s stay positive!</p>

<p>Hello everyone, even though I don’t know you I have to say reading your posts for hours on end has been great. Like most, I also have some dreaded test tomorrow and the following week finals. I have read but never posted anything and i would like to take this time to tell you its been great. Hope everything goes well. </p>

<p>How am i going to deal with rejections?
i am going to cry during class?</p>

<p>I am the Editor-In-Chief of my school’s yearbook and we have an all-staff meeting tomorrow after school. I live on the West Coast and will therefore have access to my decision at 2pm. I get out of of school at 2:15. In other words, I will either be overly excited when consulting my staff about upcoming deadlines or I will be too depressed to even show up.</p>
