Lol, whiteguy, I know you have your scholarship thing, but 1. you could have ED'd to Columbia right? and 2. at least you're in somewhere. you're really not in that horrible of a situation compared to others on TLS, though I understand your frustration.WhiteGuy5 wrote:I think our fates are tied together.JamMasterJ wrote:same hereWhiteGuy5 wrote:Checked mail.

I remember someone else asked about why I didn't ED. Well...I always thought I had a decent chance anyway, and I thought there was a slight chance I might get into Harvard. So if I don't get in to either one, I just might wait until next year and then ED (and save up money too). As for as my horrible situation, yeah I know it's not bad at all (in fact, I think 70% of the people on TLS are pretty well off, despite "only" getting into T14s and not T6s or T10s). It's just more entertaining to be neurotic and annoyed than poised and reasonablesnehpets wrote:Lol, whiteguy, I know you have your scholarship thing, but 1. you could have ED'd to Columbia right? and 2. at least you're in somewhere. you're really not in that horrible of a situation compared to others on TLS, though I understand your frustration.WhiteGuy5 wrote:I think our fates are tied together.JamMasterJ wrote:same hereWhiteGuy5 wrote:Checked mail.

Haha, fair enough. I am certainly neurotic myself. Hopefully you'll get in and won't have to worry! I'm sure you will, really, I think they're just holding off on 172s.WhiteGuy5 wrote:

In all seriousness, I agree. There's just a part of me that thinks that the more I believe I'll get in, the more I'll jinx it.snehpets wrote:Haha, fair enough. I am certainly neurotic myself.

Haven't heard back yet and there's a chance that there's a decision on the way to me in the mail (good or bad), but I just emailed them withdrawing my application. I decided I would go to HLS over Columbia. Good luck to everyone else!

Same. But now that I know that rejection letters are in the mail, I'm not so sure I want to find anything...Elliott_Smith wrote:Empty mailbox as well.JamMasterJ wrote:same hereWhiteGuy5 wrote:Checked mail.

I received a letter-sized white envelope from Columbia LS today. I think I may file it in a drawer unopened. 10 years from now I will stumble upon it and laugh to think that it may have once held some sort of power over me.
Best of luck all.

FWIW, I live in Manhattan, and my GPA/LAST were both below the 25% for CLS. So I may have been an easy reject and quick mail delivery.

I have a theory that many of us with moderate to good numbers are in an unofficial 'hold' until the February 15 deadline, when they can assess the applicant pool as a whole, and they see which YSH people withdraw.
Thoughts?

Thanks. I am over here in the MidWest. Should be expecting dingalicious mailings from both Columbia and Yale... I say dingalicious because it sounds more playful, hoping to lessen the deep pain that I will surely endure.citykitty wrote:CarolinasPopTorts13 wrote:Mind saying where about you live, East Coast ooor?
