Re: Columbia 2010
From last year:
M51 wrote:
My take: Columbia traditionally has a 3 round "early" decision schedule before their bulk decisions in late January.
1st Round - Some acceptances (the ones they reviewed early presumably). Auto-Admits. Auto-Rejects. This just passed wed.
2nd Round - (traditionally the second week of December, but this year the 1st round was early, so who knows). A mix of Acceptances and Reject/Deferrals.
3rd Round - (right before Christmas) All remaining ED. Mostly rejects at this point with a few deferrals and very few acceptances. This is horrible timing imo and will ruin quite a few X-mases.
Sit tight. The 2nd round's not here yet. You might have reason to be more depressed if the 2nd round passes w/o a word.

I was never really expecting to get in from the start. It will help ease the pain.oneforship wrote:Prediction: I will be in round 3.
edit: but I do have to say that the rejection right before Christmas is going to be a sonofabitch.

Re: Columbia 2010
Not that there's any chance I'd/I'll be in a first batch, because God knows any admittance would be by a whisker, but those acceptance people just made my day.
Scary as it is, I'm glad it's started.

Re: Columbia 2010
If that is any indication, it looks like I woulda been in w/ ED. Hopefully I'm not kicking myself later for going RD instead. Ugh. I guess it was the right decision because I still don't know what school I would like to attend.Helmholtz wrote:http://lawschoolnumbers.com/blueprint4

Re: Columbia 2010
For those who've been accepted, because I'm curious, does the email still follow the pdf attachment format, or is it a straight up, in the text, you've been accepted?

Well, that's probably it for today, since they all received their acceptances between 2:00-2:20 EST

Sad that the excitement, so quickly begun, has already ended.
Except for those people that only check their email every few hours, who'll be here crowing around dinnertime...
