I am pretty sure I know the answer to this, but are there any recent completes among the admits?

After the WLs from Penn and Chicago I thought I had no chance... this is the best! Almost done hearing from everyone too!

Hm...Penn w/l's everyone, even Ben Franklin's descendants, so little can be concluded from that. And Chicago seems to be much more concerned with high GPA than Columbia. Not sure if that applies to you, but Chicago's GPA median is higher than Yale's, which is crazy.

It does, I'm a splitter. Numbers-wise I just had a worse chance here than anywhere else I applied, but it's also my number 1 choice, so of course I was more pessimistic.

Anyone gotten in today with an LSAT at 25th? Feel free to PM if you don't want to post, I'd really appreciate it!

Hey, that's all that matters. Super congrats then!!

Do rejections come via e-mail? Congrats to all the new admits!!

I'd guess they do, but I am not sure. I do know that the first rejects came out last year around the 3rd week of February, so it's definitely too early to be expecting bad news.

Just got my admit email but in the attached letter it said to review the "enclosed admitted students handbook" but it was not attached anywhere to the email. Did anyone else have this?

[johnlocke]

Congrats to everyone who has heard back! Has anyone received scholarship information along with an acceptance?

The admit letter is a pdf of the one that will arrive along with the rest of the admissions materials -- enclosed is referring to the entire envelope you will receive, not the email.

So, when you say "just got" do you mean the past few minutes or sometime in the past couple of hours? And congratulations!

YES, CONGRATS

This is no doubt reward for all of your hard work and dedication to the tls community, including but not limited to creating the Columbia 2015-16 cycle applicant spreadsheet that all of you amazing new admits should update now so the rest of us can gaze longingly at an excel sheet

[killingmesoftly]

You guys that were admitted today -- when did you have interviews (if you had them)? I had my interview last week, did anyone with an interview that recent get in today?

Thank you in advance for helping me in my goal of avoiding a panic attack.

I had mine back in November, I believe, so no help here (sorry).

Admitted without an interview! Curious to see how the $$ situation plays out with the changes in interviews this year

[lawstud24]

Seems like everyone who's been accepted so far applied in Sept. or Oct? Anyone who applied in November or later get accepted yet?
