Given that there's already a Philly-area NCE reported here, I don't expect I'll be getting anything tomorrow. Hopefully the rest of you will have better luck!

Do the rejection letters come out at the same time?

If I remember correctly from reading last year's thread, the VCEs are sprinkled out in a long stretch of acceptances, not sent out in one enormous batch. People who expect an acceptance could easily get it later this week, or next week, or any week between now and March. Have faith! Not getting it today doesn't mean waitlist/ding.

Submitted 11/13, complete 11/24

And for what it's worth, my pin is unrelated to my LSAC number and SSN. For the conspiracy freaks out there - it is weirdly close to my college ID number, but I never gave Columbia that information, so I think it's pure coincidence.

The freaking out ship has sailed for me. I just got off the phone with my neighbor who was going to look for me and then at the last minute I decided I'd rather check myself when I got home.

If you don't get word today it's not the end of the world. If you don't get word over the next two weeks, looks like a ding is unlikely, anyway.

That's not how I'm reading this. Looks like the majority of admits will hear during the first wave. That being said, within 1 day mailing distance, no NCE, I'll blame the weather today, but post-tomorrow, I'm expecting ding/WL. I'm borderline as it is.

Nothing for me today, but nothing to worry about until a fellow midwesterner gets in, right?

The majority of admits are during the first wave, but there's a respectable number of admits later on too (for early submits). No NCE this week is by no means a kiss of death... at least that's what I'll be telling myself when I don't get it this week.

Yo everyone: chill. I know its in our nature to panic but the past 10 pages have been an exercise in psychobabble paranoia. We all already know THAT DECISIONS ARE MAILED IN BATCHES OVER A COUPLE OF DAYS. I'm out here in Cali, not expecting but just riding the wave and waiting; we will all hear back from Columbia soon, just go to work, pack a bowl, have sex with your significant others, play a mmorpg, all will be told and if its one day or another it won't make a scrap of difference since you really don't know how long (or have any power over whether) your letter will be held by a hungover Teaneck, NJ post office clerk.

also CONGRATS to all the admits!! :)
