Columbia Applicants Waiting Thread

[ObviouslyMasochistic]

Grats, mallard! That's an amazing opportunity.

[Dr_Nex]

He sounds very unenthused. If you don't want your Butler, pass it on to me Mallard.

[mallard]

I'm not unenthused.

[hopeful2012]

Do people get accepted without a request for fall grades???

[dk99]

In with Butler.

Awesome! Congrats.

[TammyG]

No, you will. Everyone hears back now.

Even if our apps are still "completion pending"?

Edit: Huge Congrats btw.

[mallard]

No, probably not in that case.

OMG!

I go to the mail box and see a large white envelope that says "Columbia Office of Admissions". In disbelief, I run back home with the envelope and open it with a pair of scissors.

Guess what it was.. a book about how awesome Columbia law is!! Ahh!!

FYI Columbia- Don't send stuff like that to applicants in the same size envelope you send acceptance letters.

</rant>

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Do you mind PMing me your stats (send/complete date; lsat; gpa)? TIA!!!!!

It wasn't an acceptance letter, just a book and some information about the school.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! I got it. Well good luck!

:) I'm not unenthused.

In all fairness, once you're in at Harvard, how enthused can you really be about another acceptance? But congrats! It's awesome, anyways!

[GuyNoir, Private Eye]

No, you will. Everyone hears back now.

Out of curiousity, what are you basing this on?

Got my mail. Nothing

[huckabees]

Got my mail. Nothing

Where are you geographically? (A rough answer would be fine.)

Don't think you should be giving up hope yet...

[yagrish]

nothing for me, too (I'm in Mass). Bummer . Going back to work now

[mallard]

Sorry to get everyone excited, hehe.

[huckabees]

Both of you seem like you'd get in...

Maybe they are sending acceptances to only auto-admits at this stage, or maybe the mail is slow (since Mallard is in NY).

[waitingforanswers]

I'm in Manhattan, so if they sent something I would have gotten it.

[Pablo E]

I am in NY and FARRRR from auto-admit so if a miracle happens when I get home tonight and check the mail, I will let you guys know!

That's probably right, but if you look at the small sample size of 3 on LSN right now, they are all auto-admits. So maybe CLS decided to only accept auto-admits right now, and are changing from last year's game plan...

Sorry to ask this again, but has anyone else NOT gotten a request for Fall grades? They have had my app since October and still nothing.

no request for fall grades. 4.4 index. i have no idea if that means i'm dinged or what.

Highly doubt you're dinged...

I read on another thread that they chose grade request ppl randomly, but that a grade request is not a bad thing...

I didn't get a request for Fall grades, but I graduated in Dec. 2007, and they probably don't care how I did in PhD level Stochastic Processes and Econometric Methods classes in the fall...

[mallard]

Oh, not going to post numbers, but I think my index was a 4.6 or 4.7. Somewhere in between.
