<p>Dear …,</p>
<p>Thank you for your first-year application to Columbia University. We are nearing the end of our application review and will soon notify candidates of our decisions.</p>
<p>The Columbia community is committed to environmental responsibility; in keeping with this commitment, we will provide some admissions decisions only online, not via regular mail. You may request that a paper copy of your decision letter be mailed to you after you receive it online; further instructions will be available when you check your decision. We plan to post all decisions online on Thursday, March 28th, 2013, after 5:00pm (Eastern Time).</p>
<p>To view your decision online, you will need to create a password using the e-mail address listed on your Common Application. To create your password, please follow the instructions on our website.</p>
<p>If you have questions, please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at …</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Jessica Marinaccio
Dean of Undergraduate Admissions and Financial Aid</p>
