Congratulations!

(Also, potential good news for more people...although I'm probably not in 2/14 postmark group)

Canadian applicant,
171/3.83.

E-mail me if your interested in my softs.

I was sitting in the public library checking my e-mail, and the decision letter comes in pdf format. The internet was too agonizingly slow to open the pdf and I had to wait 12 hours till I got home. XD
Did you receive one of those HOLD emails a few feeks ago?

Generally, most of the Dec people will be getting decisions now.

There are exceptions, though. I went complete early Nov and still waiting, and I'm pretty sure there are one or two who went complete in Oct/Sept.


Hoping that the admission deadline means something, though, and that most of the pre-Thanksgiving crowd will get something.

Got an email from Columbia that my Dean's Certification was still missing... I submitted the paperwork for it to the Dean of Students A MONTH AGO. Their website says that after they receive a request it "can take up to 10 days for processing", which I understood to mean that by the 11th or so day they would stick it in the mail and Columbia would get it a few days later, but apparently not. I sent the DoS office a fairly passive-aggressive email asking if they could tell me when it was mailed.

Seems like there are not many admittances so far. In either cases, not a ding, right?

I'm only 10 days behind you.
I got a package today says my mail service but I'm trying really really hard to convince myself it's another random thing from Baylor or University of Tulsa or something so that I don't get too excited.

"Columbia?!?! Retake the LSAT and go to Harvard."

I responded with "No thanks, you can go to Harvard."
My dad would have said "Columbia? Is a South American law degree any good in America? Isn't Columbia full of drugs and hostage-taking rebels?"

I mean, there WAS a big drug bust recently at Columbia, but I think it was undergrads.
