Columbia Reserve C/O 2017 - Updated with Poll Forum

[tenniscourt]

Dinged via mail last night. Was expecting it after not receiving the 3rd reserve email. GL to everyone still alive!

Sorry to hear that. I hope you're happy with your choice!

[Dekal2009]

Withdrew today...Dont know how I made it to a 3rd reserve, but I doubt I'll get in. Anyways, Hope California treats me nice!

Good luck everyone

Rejected via mail today. Got worried after not receiving the 3rd reserve email. but knew it was coming when I saw a small envelope. Oh well, so much for my #1. Good luck to all of ya'll, and hopefully CLS actually admits someone.

If it helps, Im a white dude with 171/3.5.

[Elleonleo]

sorry for ya'll that have recently been rejected. Hope you guys have good alternatives lined up.
I'm still waiting to hear and called and was told my decision had been sent out already by mail.
It seems that that probably means rejection. but....of course...i'm wondering....is it certain that all mailed decisions are rejections?
Thanks everyone. Good luck to those remaining.

I believe those accepted off the WL get interviewed (based on last year), and everyone placed on reserve is notified via email. Maybe the process is/ will be different this year. Best of luck!!

Emailed them Wednesday about an upcoming deposit deadline and my continued interest. Usually they e-mail back the next day but I haven't heard anything yet.....hoping they're actually thinking about making an offer!

We can only hope all the pressure everyone is putting on them would make them have some movement

Yeah, good news is that one way or the other it'll all be over in a month!

[dancers1126]

So the deadline to let them know about third reserve was Friday. Hoping there will be some movement towards the end of this week or next week! Do they have open spots or are they just keeping us in case someone drops? The third reserve letter said they are planning on making some offers this summer...

[msdiiva]

Just lurking on HYS threads, it seems there definitely are open spots from pull who were pulled up. Fingers crossed for something in the next week for at least some of us.

[dancers1126]

Just would love to know one way or the other for all schools....they should all decide to have a cut off date where they can't make more acceptances past 8/1 so people can give notices on apartments and plan moves and such

[dancers1126]

Has anyone heard anything? The last e-mail said, "the final evaluation of candidates will occur at the end of july through early august" and the date for people to submit their third reserve responses was 7/18

[koval]

No.

[Dr.Zer0]

No.

[tenniscourt]

This feels like the Hunger Games with us getting picked off one by one until the very end

[wade]

Hey everyone still here - I included a poll.

[retaking23]

Has anyone actually been admitted off reserve? Something about someone in the last couple pages got my hopes all up but now I'm thinking that was a flame....

Sorry I have not been in this thread much, but would someone please explain what is meant by the deadlines for third reserve etc? I have not received any word since I was put on reserve in Feb. Are people receiving emails, and in that case multiple emails ? So confused. I will call and ask as well next week.

So after being put on first reserve, a lot of people have been receiving subsequent emails saying "We still can't make a decision on your apication and would like for you to stay on reserve. If you wish to remain on reserve or would like to withdraw please go to this link by *insert arbitrary date here*." And after that some people have gotten another email asking if they'd like to stay on third reserve. The fact that you've heard nothing since your first reserve seems abnormal here and I'd talk to them.

Or at least check your spam mailbox to make sure it didn't go there. Good luck when you call them!

Agreed! And if you get any additional info about available slots/expected offers, please share!

[pcthenls]

Thanks to you both. Will do. I have checked my spam box daily and nothing. I will call.

Here's hoping someone here receives good news this week!

There's like what, 12-15 days left till orientation?

[tartlez]

I just received my third reserve email this morning. I'm not quite sure what that means for my prospects, but good luck everyone!!! At least it means that something's happening this week I guess?

Same here. Deadline to reply is this Friday. Doubt we will see any movement before then.
