Are you in? What happened on the call?

[gmail]

It was a call from my Mom telling me about about her piano concert last night.

gmail, I've got to hand it to you for keeping your sense of humor at this stage.
Best of luck everyone!

[Jrugg88]

Has anyone heard anything???

[neimanmarxist]

no. My money is on CLS being over-enrolled. They're not going to the waitlist, which makes this giant reserve pool puzzling to say the least.

Tick Tock.....no call yet. I have to sign a lease next week and start my move in time to be settled.
I keep trying to push my move in date out just in case I get a call.
Whats that old saying : a watched phone never rings!

[hopefullaw27]

game over?

[lawgod]

game over?

looks like it. really fascinating. not even one tls or tls noticed acceptance.

[van]

I finally broke down and called admissions today. The lady basically said they are still in process of reviewiing applications and sending out decisions daily. Very ambiguous. I signed a lease for my new apartment today.

[LawQs]

Thanks for sharing Van!

Don't mistake this for actual hope, but I guess it's good that they're 'reviewing applications.' Maybe though by 'reviewing' they meant 'looking through the application for the mailing address to write on the inevitable thin envelopes.'

[gmail]

Also, I'm pretty sure they email or call people accepted off the WL.

[chanchito]

doesn't orientation there start in less than a week?

[lawgod]

yes. their orientation begins on monday. Hopefully with some of us (me) at it. But it's time to get used to reality.
I actually appreciated having this vague hope. It has helped me deal with it slowly instead in one blow.

[macunaima]

I'm out. Letter arrived in Boston today.

Good luck to the rest of you.

[carbohydrate]

XD @ still no letter a couple days before orientation. Why wouldn't they just send them out sooner?

[Core]

Rejection letter arrived in NYC yesterday. Good luck all!

[Chibi_koinu]

I am out as well. Received my letter at some point this weekend (either Friday or Saturday) in NJ. I was away in VA and came home to THIS, lol. I think it was post-marked the 11th, but I'm not sure since I ripped it up and threw it away after reading. I wasn't bitter at all... it was sort of like a release. *shrug*. They tell us "think about transferring next may/june" though. Yay for optimism. =P lol (good luck to all of you still waiting!)

[existenz]

Sounds like I should be expecting my rejection letter on Monday.

[lawgod]

perhaps we should rename this thread:
Columbia "strung along for three months" 2010

[pelmen74]

perhaps we should rename this thread:
Columbia "strung along for three months" 2010

Think of it as a soft rejection.

[CrimsonCal]

more like strung along for 10 months, lol

I barely even read my letter, just the first two sentences... I didn't notice the transfer bit on it.... if there even was one...

[Oedipus Lex]

I'm still expecting that acceptance call to come any minute now, any old minute at all.

[ohmy212]

I'm in NYC and still have yet to receive a rejection letter. Ugh, just let me go already.

[mmmadeli]

My stepdad called me and told me I got a thin letter from Columbia. I thought he said I got an IN letter from Columbia and I just about had a heart attack (especially seeing as I moved to UCLA two weeks ago), but no. I think I'm relieved, honestly.
