Columbia c/o 2020 applicants (2016-2017) Forum

[jpark86]

Hi lovelies,

I'm looking for some advice here. I submitted my application in early January but haven't heard a peep. It's a bit strange considering I've been accepted at both University of Chicago & NYU, and just recently received my JS1. I think it may be related to the fact that I submitted two LORs from professors, even though I have been out of school for a bit. One of the professors, however, can speak directly to my job experience because he worked in collaboration with me on the project and essentially "supervised" me.

Thoughts about sending a LOCI with another LOR from my current employer (non-professor)?

Thanksss

I don't think you've been pending long enough to..it's only been a month or so

Agree with Keilz, don't think this really counts yet as the kind of lengthy wait that would be concerning in any way

Thanks guys! As you can imagine, seeing other folks get admitted with lower numbers and later submits can be a bit frightening. But alas, all things in good time. I will take this energy and obsess over my JS1 and finances

yes... making me really jealous right about now! awesome job though!!

WTF?

Edited -- I'm clearly wrong here. Was thinking about a different school that does NOT have Columbia's walk-in policy.

They state that they have a liberal open door policy to meet with an admissions officer anytime 9-5. Though I really thought about it, I couldn't think of what anyone would need to say unless you have some special interests, needs, or requirements or something, but I don't think it would be neurotic if you are polite and low-key.

Wait, seriously? I must be thinking of another school that absolutely does NOT have that policy. But I could have sworn it was Columbia...
