Same. Did you all receive confirmation for your LOCIs? I know I submitted it through the MyColumbia portal, but never got confirmation beside the screen right after I submitted, and I don't want to bother them unnecessarily.

I sent an email to admissions for my LOCI and got a confirmation email 8 days after I sent it in.

I didn't submit mine through MyColumbia portal; I e-mailed it to admissions on Feb 22 and never received confirmation. Should I call and ask if they received it, resend it through MyColumbia portal or do neither??

I sent mine in around the same time via email. I called about a week ago and they said that they didn't have it. They then searched for my email and found it. The woman said that they were very backed up and that it would probably take 2 weeks for them to get to my LOCI and add it to my file.

Reserved via email, significantly above both 75ths. Anyone else in this situation? I was hoping for a Hamilton/Butler, so this is disappointing...

They notify you with your acceptance if you receive a Butler or Hamilton, but there's a chance for unnamed schollies/financial aid that is being sent out in April. Pretty sure you need to get your tax returns in and fill out their supplement to qualify for that, so you should do it as soon as you can.
