<p>No email for me. This has me concerned.</p>
<p>Quant: I have horrendous stats. 3.3 hs, 28 act, 3.42 college.</p>
<p>OFancy: I will call as soon as class is over.</p>
<p>quantify, why do u want to leave columbia, i am praying i get in there</p>
<p>i’m sorry, what ****es me off and what i dont get is.
if our file was complete as of friday last week, why do they not have a decison yet. they said we’d get decisions today…</p>
<p>it seems like when jerry wrote</p>
<ol>
<li>If your application was complete as of Friday, April 21st; we will send a decision to you via email on Friday of this week.</li>
</ol>
<p>he really meant</p>
<ol>
<li><p>If your application was complete as of Friday, April 21st; AND WE ACCEPTED YOU, we will send a typo/freshman decision to you via email on Friday of this week. Which will indicate that you were accepted. if you got no email either</p></li>
<li><p>we rejected/deferred you but are going to make you suffer a few more days until early next week when you will find out for certain</p></li>
</ol>
<p>or </p>
<ol>
<li>we couldnt keep our word again, and we really havent been able to get to all the applications</li>
</ol>
<p>I also called, and was told that, with the email mix-up, they’re going to be focusing on clearing up the decisions with those people before they finish making decisions on the next batch. Hence, emails for some of us are going out Monday.</p>
<p>can someone call to find out for certain whether we can expect any further emails today. or are we all pretty much stuck with waiting until monday of next week.</p>
<p>i’d call myself but i dont want to risk cursing everyone i talk to off</p>
<p>This is insane. I had such good recs and stuff and good gpa and a unique job (NASA) and great essays. God I hope its because they are reviewing my new transcript and not that im borderline or already rejected.</p>
<p>Just sucks. They don’t seem capable of keeping their word. Too bad for University of Chicago that soo many people get this as their first experience with the school - amateur hour. </p>
<p>Congrats to those of you who are in. Good luck.</p>
<p>who else got in, was I the only one who got through to Gerald?</p>
<p>Jerry just told me that the decision hasnt been made because they just got my new transcript in the mail a few days ago. (I had sent it last week), so they are going to decide next week.</p>
<p>I hope he wasnt lying to me.</p>
<p>Yeah, well I sent mine beginning of January. I also have 4.0, outstanding recs, good essays, exemplary military service, etc… Yet, decisions being delayed again? Total crap.</p>
<p>hahaha, dont we ALL hope they arent lying to us</p>
<p>i just called the admissions office</p>
<p>me: so i havent gotten an email, i’m assuming i was either rejected or deferred?</p>
<p>lady: um… noooooo… was your file complete?</p>
<p>me: yes… when can i expect a decison</p>
<p>lady: um… early next week?</p>
<p>sounds more like she saw on the screen that i was rejected, but didnt have the authority or heart to disclose the decison</p>
<p>bball…I am not leaving columbia… it is an amazing place. I applied as a security measure after my coach was fired here.</p>
<p>Wow, I feel bad for this Jerry/Gerald guy right now. Haha.</p>
<p>Should feel sorry for us. We have to put up with this crap.</p>
<p>They’re lying. They just don’t want to reject over the phone.</p>
<p>I don’t have the heart to call right now.</p>
<p>I don’t even care anymore - just tired of being treated like crap. Wouldn’t surprise me a bit to find out that they just don’t have the stones to tell the truth. Sorry, John - I know you were looking forward to finding out something definative as much as I was.</p>
<p>I am <em>IN</em>.</p>
<p>If they are lying then we should have gotten a email by now saying so.</p>
<p>I am still going to have hope that I faxed my info a few days ago that they are still deciding.</p>
<p>Congrats neverborn, I really wanted to get in as well and I just wanted to get in as well. Hell.</p>
