+1 to that.

Looking at LSN for last year... LSAT's of 175 at Columbia were only waitlisted if they were below the 25% GPA, rejected if they were close enough to 3.00 GPA. I'd say you are a lock. .

haha, well thanks for the vote of confidence.

I got an email today from Columbia's admissions office that said my application still isn't complete (I sent it 11/30). They wrote "MATERIAL NOT YET RECEIVED: A signed application"

Anyone have any idea what that means? My application is complete on the LSAC website, so I'm pretty sure my app was sent. It would be great to have some insight before I tell them I have no idea what they're talking about. Thanks!

[Lurkster]

Hey guys, I applied today! Lets see how fast I get dinged!

+1 to that.

+2. CLS, if you're going to reject me, please don't drag it out unnecessarily. It's detrimental to my emotional well-being. (Or change your mind and accept me!)

+3 Why must they wound us?

Did you date the bottom of the application when you submitted it electronically? (I'm assuming you submitted electronically.) Without the date, it's considered unsigned.

If you did forget to date it, you'll probably have to resend the last page, maybe the whole primary form, by snail mail. Call them up to ask about it.

Does LSAC let you save or submit without dating it? When I was filling my apps out online, I remember getting error messages every time I tried to save if any starred fields were left blank, and I think the date was a starred field.

yeah you can click something like save and continue and it'll bypass those errors messages I think.

Depends on the school. I remember some apps had a "required" tag on everything required, but others didn't have "required" tags on anything (and so you wouldn't get prompted if you missed something). I think Columbia was the latter type.

it means you didn't type your name and submission date on your application at the end i guess

[CoaltoNewCastle]

Nothing today for me either.

Thanks for all the responses. I looked at the transmitted application and I definitely filled everything in. Really strange. I sent the office an email about it. I hope the huge delay doesn't hurt my chances...

+1. Thank God I'm going out of town for the next four business days so I don't have to see nothing from CLS in my box.

[groundkontrol]

I'm visiting the campus tomorrow morning. Is anyone else?

[K's Logic]

Hmm..I went to check my status today and it seems my file has disappeared, as in it says they have no record of me on file. I was at complete for quite a while, so perhaps this is a subtle way of telling me I have been rejected?

[Kronk]

Columbia posted my additional LOR today, so apparently they received my LOCI. Come onnnnnn CLS.

[booboo]

Oh no, V6's avatar changed.

[Kronk]

Oh no, V6's avatar changed.

A CLS envelope could change it to a baby blue crown.

[CardinalRules]

Oh no, V6's avatar changed.

Unless CLS sees your current avatar and shreds the app of someone who obviously loves their rival.

[crackberry]

Oh no, V6's avatar changed.

Yeah WTF V6, you're a goddamn chameleon these days.

[TheWire]

Oh no, V6's avatar changed.

It may just be because I'm a Laker fan...but I think the royal purple is beautiful

Pfft says the guy who I didn't recognize due to his new avatar.
