Submitted around October 20th I'd say and went complete 11/18. No $$ but I'm not surprised bc a) my numbers and b) I don't think ED applicants typically get any $$, but maybe I'm wrong there. I didn't get an interview invite. big splitter, PM me for my #s. One bottle popped! :D

Received an email in the late afternoon with the subject line "Columbia Law School" from "Admit" (the email address was admit@law.columbia.edu but the name just came up as Admit in my inbox). The text of the email didn't say much but there was an attached PDF with the decision.

fingers crossed for more admits today!
Huh. I thought they said they were only sending out decisions via snail mail? I'm about to leave the country so if they're emailing that would be amazing!

I believe international RD receive email notification, but that's just speculation based on what I've read in last year's forum
