No. But you don't need to log in into My Columbia Law to upload LOCI.

So... Given the lengthy discussion of acceptance wave in last several pages, has anyone received snail mail ding this weekend?

I was expecting one when I checked my mail yesterday (I live two subway lines away from the campus), but didn't get anything. Really have no idea what to expect at this point. I interviewed three weeks ago and would consider myself a borderline candidate at best.

Thanks for the feedback Python! I'm out of town this weekend and have been really nervous about the ding mail... I submitted early January, went complete 1/20 and heard nothing since. I see from your profile that you've been accepted at NYU. Since Columbia and NYU are rival schools, maybe don't lose hope just yet?

Why would NYU being a rival school impact ones chances at Columbia? Just curious.

Where do I submit/upload my LOCI?

Or do I just email it to admissions?

Thanks

I think it means that they want the same people, so being accepted at one means that you're probably a likely candidate for the other.

Exactly. Thnx for the clarification. I have absolutely no scientific evidence to support my claim. Pure speculation.

Placed on reserve via email. Don't see myself waiting around until the end of May, so I'll probably remove myself from consideration. Best of luck to everyone!
