Hi folks!

This is my first post. I’ve been lurking around this forum for quite a while now. Congratulations to those who received likely letters from Columbia. I received one (from CC) as well around a week ago.

Though I’m personally not inclined to divulge stats or anything of the sort, I want to expel the myth about likely letter recipients being perfect/mostly racially underrepresented/anything like that.

I have a SAT score that is nowhere near perfect. I assure you my racial status did not work in my favor during my admissions process. I am also an international student applying for financial aid.

I am just someone who got lucky, someone whose application just happened to be on top of the right people’s desks.

To those accept: again, congratulations! Hopefully we will be able to talk a little more about what interests you about Columbia. And - who else is browsing this site obsessively to look for posts that reassure us we will most certainly not be rejected after a LL?

To those still waiting: feel free to consider me as that person that really doesn’t seem qualified compare to XYZ people you know. I humbly accept that title with pleasure. ;)
