Columbia University (CUNY Morningside) (2022-2023)

[mint osprey]

congrats! Which ones

[kindred edge]

Colby and NYU

Had to decline NYU

[mint osprey]

I think my luck ran out by 29th March lol

[mint osprey]

Ah okay

What major are u

[kindred edge]

Mechanical or Electrical engineering

[mint osprey]

Ay nice

[jovial crypt]

meeeee

[kindred edge]

But I committed for Physics and CS at Colby rn

[jovial crypt]

rip columbia WL 😔😔😔

[kindred edge]

I literally had 0 luck this season

[sharp meteor]

harvard got u

[mint osprey]

fr tho I got northwestern ucsd NYU in a row and then suddenly comes ivy day and duke and Stanford 💀💀💀

[mint osprey]

fr tho

[austere carbon]

really wish i was an URM rn lmao

[jovial crypt]

yeah i got WashU NYU UMich Gtown then ivy day happened

[kindred edge]

All are great tho!! Where are u committing?

[jovial crypt]

why are you here LMAOOOO

[kindred edge]

And are u all intl full pay or domestic?

[jovial crypt]

domestic full pay

[kindred edge]

Ahhh

Bro I am intl needing lots of aid

[jovial crypt]

💀

[sharp meteor]

LOL i’m just lurking all ivy wl for any movements

[mint osprey]

us moment fr

[mint osprey]

Committed to NYU stern

and yeah im full pay

Intl

[mint osprey]

Oof

but actually for waitlists

that helps lowk ngl

Like I’ve read about this quite a bit and

Colleges get aid seeking people from the waitlist to make their fin aid stats better

Like average aid provided and % of intls on aid etc

[desert tinsel]

no.......

and it's prob too late to

[desert tinsel]

what

i heard the opposite

full pay intls r more likely to be admitted or something

because money 💀

[mint osprey]

also true but only for colleges that are extremely stingy

And for colleges that aren’t T30

Because the T20 usually look for more applicants and better aid statistics

[mint osprey]

This applies more for colleges highly dependent on tuition fees

The ivys aren’t as dependent

I don’t have an official source on this

[desert tinsel]

columbia is need aware for intls tho

[mint osprey]

But it’s just what I’ve read over the past 2 years

[mint osprey]

yeah I know

[desert tinsel]

fair enough

both makes sense anyway

we wouldnt know as always 💀

[mint osprey]

yea lmao

Not like it’s gonna change anything

just playin wid our emotions atp

[desert tinsel]

I just want news 😭

so I can finally move on w my life!

[mint osprey]

same bro

[jovial crypt]

so true

[desert tinsel]

any news from harvard yet?

[jovial crypt]

nope maybe one person got off

[kindred edge]

Ugh I wish the process was much more transparent

[mint osprey]

Ur waitlisted at Harvard??

Damn that’s an achievement in itself

They didn’t care enough about me to even give an interview 💀

[kindred edge]

Literally same

At least Princeton and Stanford were nice enough to interview me before rejecting

Did u all get an interview from Columbia tho?

[desert tinsel]

Yep

[desert tinsel]

Same 💀

[mint osprey]

Same

[mint osprey]

Yeah

But my interviewer joined 15 min late

And said he has to leave in 5 mins

Legit said my name and profile that’s it 💀

Then I asked him plz reschedule

Since he had no time then

So he rescheduled and did a 30 min interview later

[jovial crypt]

yeah

[bitter nimbus]

Seems like the WL had some movement for CC

I haven’t heard anything for SEAS tho

[kindred edge]

Ahhh I literally didn’t get an interview from them

[mint osprey]

dang

im CC

[mint osprey]

It’s fine

It’s availability based

[kindred edge]

We were talking about that sometime ago and some of those comments seem fake

But idk ngl

[jovial crypt]

maybe*

[kindred edge]

Cus like there were some people in Reddit too but like all of those accounts are super new

And didn’t have any previous messages

[jovial crypt]

if there was movement it would have been extremely minimal

[kindred edge]

Well hopefully we’ll hear some good news on Monday

Is Columbia’s waitlist usually quite big?

[jovial crypt]

we probably will not but maybe one of us lmao

[kindred edge]

Ehhh well let’s just hope it’s us hahah

[bitter nimbus]

Yea but why would they specifically go to Columbia waitlist in a kinda hidden thread

Maybe they just stalk w/o account

Too many ppl kind of talking abt it to ignore the fact now

[kindred edge]

Hmm could be idk tbh

So far I saw 3 people on Reddit say that, 1 person in Discord and like 2 people in CC

One person claimed they were already rejected

[mint osprey]

idk but if you see the Columbia RD thread on the day of decisions

Then I saw so many waitlists

Tbf also could be bias

Because rejections are unlikely to be posted

[kindred edge]

Also trueee

[mint osprey]

But yeah either way

[kindred edge]

Idk I just feel like it’s so not Columbia to release waitlists in waves

I feel like they would release them in big waves at least

[mint osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/some-men-just-want-to-watch-the-world-burn-batman-alfred-quotes-gif-14054558

[jovial crypt]

pretty sure they did release waitlists in waves in 2021

[mint osprey]

True

[jovial crypt]

(i know someone who got off the 2021 WL 2nd wave)

[kindred edge]

Ohhhh

[mint osprey]

Im expecting a wave next Friday again I guess

[kindred edge]

Hmm so are you thinking it was a first wave?

[kindred edge]

Sameee

Or like a very low chance of it being on Monday

[mint osprey]

low chance ye

[mint osprey]

Yes

[kindred edge]

Maybe SEAS on Monday?

[mint osprey]

Since there weren’t too many

[mint osprey]

personally don’t think they’re working like that

Just irrespective of SEAS and CC

[kindred edge]

Yeah

[mint osprey]

because CC has a lot more applicants

and a lot more majors

[kindred edge]

Hmm doesn’t Columbia admit by majors?

[mint osprey]

By college

Not by major specifically

[kindred edge]

That also makes sense, it might be skewed

[feral olive]

@mint osprey stop ccoping bro

padhai karo

[jovial crypt]

i think something is coming out tmr tbh

[feral olive]

ur odds are <1%

[kindred edge]

Right so wouldn’t you think it would make sense for them to roll out Seas separately

[jovial crypt]

no but maybe seas is full and only cc has space

[feral olive]

at least do some portal astro or smth

[kindred edge]

Fingers crossed low

[kindred edge]

There is literally no indicators 💀

[feral olive]

mane

boring ass uni

[kindred edge]

NOOOOOO

[feral olive]

everyone knows dartmouth is the best t20 with the word "college" in its name

[kindred edge]

Like I literally checked everything in the main portal and Fin aid

[feral olive]

columbia college 🤮

[feral olive]

fairs

[kindred edge]

Lol I might do a 3-2 program so will not disagree, but Columbia is definitely a dream uni

[feral olive]

fs

i am gonna transfer there

[kindred edge]

I just want to go to NYC and it’s one of the best for engineering

[kindred edge]

Same will also try

[feral olive]

its quite fire indeed

[kindred edge]

Yeahhh but apparently they are so bad with aid for international students (transfer and 3-2 programs)

[feral olive]

oh yeah extremely poor

consider dartmouth 3-2

its need blind

[kindred edge]

Yeahh I am thinking of doing that

Cus they have a special agreement with my LAC if I can’t transfer

[winter heron]

SEAS is part of columbia college is it not?

i always thought that columbia college referred to the undergrad school and liberal arts while SEAS was the engineering portion of the undergrad school

[kindred edge]

Not sure but I think SEAS is a different school within Columbia

It’s called Fu School of Engineering right?

And applied sciences

So technically I think it’s a different school and CC is liberal arts more so

[dusk glade]

Yeah

[bitter nimbus]

Columbia University is the university

Columbia College and SEAS are colleges within Columbia University

They are “colleges” bc they are for undergrad studies

[mint osprey]

COLUMBIA ACCEPT ME

COLUMBIA IS THE COOLEST SCHOOL EVER

COLUMBIA KIDS ARE KIND AND CLEVER

[unique mural]

Manifesting or serious?

[mint osprey]

Manifesting

Im legit asking Columbia to accept me

Im@not saying they’ve accepted me

💀

[fading summit]

that song actually dazed columbia for me

[visual ice]

its may 15...

terrified

intl + full aid + orm + cs at seas its not looking good for me 😭

[mint osprey]

its ok

also they said bw may 15th to june 30th

may not hear anyth tonight

tbh i don't expect a wave today, friday instead

[visual ice]

yea prob

everyone said that for cornell too but they didnt send out a wave in quite a bit im scared they arent gonna let anyone else off either

[desert tinsel]

It's 15 May 💀💀💀

[mint osprey]

💀

they send out acceptances at 12 noon apparently

multiple ppl on CC and reddit said so

but no wave today imo

probably friday again

[desert tinsel]

We'll see...

[dusk glade]

SAME LMAO

Good luck guys!

[mint osprey]

yo did anyone get an email rn (I didn’t lol but it’s noon on 15th May in NYC)

if no one got one rn then assume the next wave’s probably Friday only

[austere carbon]

nope

[dusk glade]

Thank you!

[bitter nimbus]

It seems like the guy on Reddit wasn’t capping

Email noon Friday checks out

So Friday is plausible

Haven’t heard of any SEAS waitlist movement so that might be coming

[dusk glade]

Why?

[fading summit]

so is our consensus that it won't come today but rather Friday?

[bitter nimbus]

Cause other ppl were talking abt movement on Friday

[fading summit]

wait is this the guy who said he got an email saying he was rejected from the waitlist? cuz that isnt supposed to happen

[mint osprey]

No

[mint osprey]

Yes

[dusk glade]

Oh

[fading summit]

?

[chrome anvil]

didn’t they say 5/15-6/30

[mint osprey]

yes

but some came on 5/12

so we're expecting next wave on 5/19

[chrome anvil]

oh already

confirmed legit?

[austere carbon]

we think so

coz a lot of people posted about it

enough people to make it seem real ig

[chrome anvil]

okay

[radiant geyser]

Columbia

Hey

Ily

[unique mural]

Same ❤️

[desert tinsel]

Anyone heard anything

It's almost Fri though

[fading summit]

Nah just wait for Friday honestly

[mint osprey]

fr fr

friday noon new york time

9:30 PM IST for my indian folks 🙏

[mint osprey]

tis Friday in india 🙏

[stone shuttle]

I’m coping so hard

[desert tinsel]

It's Friday

[visual ice]

every notification is making me jump

[frank jolt]

Did it come out?

[mint osprey]

No we’re speculating 12 noon New York time

For all we know we might not even have another wave

so yea just forget about it honestly

[desert tinsel]

this is so depressing

[mint osprey]

Lol yea but it is what it is

[atomic hinge]

anything?

[mint osprey]

did anyone receive an email

[austere carbon]

maybe they're doing it in the afternoon? like before they get off work

[unique mural]

Nothing for me

[mint osprey]

who knows

[austere carbon]

their rd results came out at like 7pm est so ig i'd expect that the wl offers come out later in the day rather than earlier

[mint osprey]

I mean last Friday the guys got theirs at noon

[jovial crypt]

😔😔😔

[austere carbon]

only like one guy said noon tho

[jovial crypt]

someone on CC said they called and it’s practically a full class

i think it’s gg

[austere carbon]

not surprised since yale, harvard and dartmouth closed their waitlists so soon

high yield this year im guessing

[mint osprey]

yep makes sense I guess

they’re probably just waiting for the previous Waitlist acceptances to confirm theirs

Since they give them one week

[austere carbon]

i would assume they'd take a day to see who to replace those who denied their wl offers

if there r any

i dont think it's an immediate process where people r queued up since it's not ranked

[mint osprey]

yea true

Depends on the demographics of the people who denied their acceptances too

[austere carbon]

yea so it's probs gonna be like monday

or way later today

[mint osprey]

yeah whatever I guess it’s gg

[mint osprey]

cuz of this

[austere carbon]

i cba to stay up for a 'potential' offer lol

[jovial crypt]

it’s gg

[austere carbon]

yea it likely is

[mint osprey]

was stressful while it lasted 🙏

[austere carbon]

but also i dont see an admissions officer saying something like that

[mint osprey]

also true

[austere carbon]

they usually dont disclose that info yknow

[mint osprey]

Idk why an AO would say that

Seems very unlikely

[austere carbon]

it's too transparent for an ivy AO to say HAHAHA

[mint osprey]

But either way even if that’s not true

[austere carbon]

they like their admissions processes vague and discreet

[mint osprey]

I think they’re probably taking v less from the waitlist anyway

[austere carbon]

not transparent at all

yea no point standing by the computer waiting anymore atp

im curious to know when they would release us tho

and i think at one point they were the last ivy to close the wl

not sure which year (could be 2021) but they closed it in like late june / july and waves of waitlist coffers came out until the end of may for some people

[mint osprey]

so the thread on CC says that they're planning an extended waitlist?

that's just more pain lmao

[austere carbon]

they do that every year tho

[mint osprey]

oh rlly?

damn

penn's also doing that ig

[austere carbon]

atp it's just based on whether people get their offers rescinded for some reason so chances r like 0.000001% lol

[mint osprey]

but eh

[mint osprey]

lol true

unis go to such lengths to cover their asses

just to give applicants pain 😔

[austere carbon]

fr lmao

what even are the ramifications that they're like short of 2 people in their incoming freshmen class

i see no difference

[mint osprey]

fr

[jovial crypt]

ehhhh i mean harvard said something like that

[mint osprey]

i'm wonderin why they specifically stated 15th may tho

for waitlist updates

[austere carbon]

time to look over all the locis?

[mint osprey]

well i mean

if the class if kinda full already

as someone "stated"

it shouldn't take much time to review locis cuz they'd do it depending on the demographics they want

plus all schools review LOCIs

just columbia taking 15 days extra 💀

[austere carbon]

oof we cant submit locis anymore on the portal

did this change happen recently

[mint osprey]

no

last date was 24th april

[austere carbon]

i vaguely remember being able to submit stuff even after april 24

[mint osprey]

i dunno man i'd just assume it's that late bc their yield wud be lower

[austere carbon]

like the extension is gone

[mint osprey]

hmm who knows

[austere carbon]

oh no

last time this happened w harvard they released waitlisted applicants

it;s the purge 0_0

[mint osprey]

oh oof

yeah i guess

it's gg

[austere carbon]

coz my portal only has status update now

the whole loci submission page is gone

is it like that for u

[mint osprey]

yes

why can't they just tell us ffs

[austere carbon]

tbh i feel like w the waitlist

they might not filter it to be supersuper specific

like obvs they care ab demographics

but i feel like instead of replacing someone with another person from the same country

they j look at the continent

if that makes sense

also i wonder if the cds includes dual degrees i never checked lol

[jovial crypt]

nah they want to say “our incoming class consists of students from all 50 states and 97 countries!”

[austere carbon]

depends on the country

if it's some country w a tiny population then they'd probs take that person

[austere carbon]

but if it's like they're missing someone from either china or india then they'd look at applicants within both regions

[radiant geyser]

Columbia please this isn’t funny 😭

[mint osprey]

😭

[warped quiver]

may 15 is housing deadline

[stone shuttle]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/zvxe7v/comment/jksqu91/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

ggs

[dusk glade]

😭 why don’t they just close the waitlist already?

[austere carbon]

maybe they're waiting for princeton to close their wl?

[dusk glade]

Last year they closed their waitlist on May 13th

[austere carbon]

maybe they'll close it on monday?

[dusk glade]

Yup, maybe 😭

[austere carbon]

if only i could rewrite those damn college essays ;o;

[dusk glade]

Anyway, if there is hope I hope you guys get in, I'm international and I need full aid so I give up 😭😭👍🏼

[austere carbon]

nooo don't say that! all the best to you!!

where are you committed? @dusk glade

[dusk glade]

Columbia was my only hope 😭, but I was admitted to a university in Europe so I think I will go there

I’m from Central America

[dusk glade]

wbu?

[austere carbon]

ah i see! ill be in the uk at durham uni for law

[dusk glade]

I am also on NYU's waitlist, specifically NYU AD, it hurt me a lot LMAO because I was invited to a thing called candidate weekend that meant you were going to be accepted 😭😭😭

[dusk glade]

OMG CONGRATS!!!! I wish you all the best in the UK!

[austere carbon]

ahh i see, hope you get either nyu ad or columbia! if not, europe is a superb place for uni!!

[chrome anvil]

bro this is so sus tho 😭

[radiant geyser]

I’ve given up now

[chrome anvil]

hey there’s always hope until you get something definitive

keep ur head up 🫡

[desert tinsel]

Ok I give up

time to commit on UCAS!

[desert tinsel]

Ngl I can't believe none of us here got off the wl

[radiant geyser]

im just so done bro

all that work

[warped quiver]

columbia wl could very well be closed

[radiant geyser]

it probably is

[warped quiver]

housing deadline was may 15

and they’ve already started to roll out UNIs

i’ve got my email and identifier

[radiant geyser]

i got nothing this cycle but waitlists

[fading summit]

I mean im sure that for some schools they make small time dreamed for waitlisted students

[desert tinsel]

It is what it is yall...

They should honestly just officially close the wl LOL

Instead of making us wait 💀

[mint osprey]

they’ll probably close waitlist on Monday I guess

[jovial crypt]

any hope

or is it all dooming now

[visual ice]

ayy same boat

[desert tinsel]

doomposting until we get official news ig

[mint osprey]

yes

It’s doom

[austere carbon]

they typically extend the housing deadline for those who got off the wl so that doesn't really correlate with whether the wl stays open, chances are still abysmally low tho

[kindred edge]

Ughhh

[desert tinsel]

it's over

[chrome anvil]

guys it’s not over till it’s over 😭

because i think this year’s yield will be lower than 65%

didn’t the same guy say there’s been little waitlist activity?

idk man

(i’m also on hopium cuz i want my friend to get off WL 💀)

[kindred edge]

That’s true

But I am mentally preparing myself for rejection tbh

Like chances are incredibly small so it’s fine

[chrome anvil]

i gotchu

[mint osprey]

It’s joever bro

Like fr tho

If they had places they’d have sent out acceptances on Friday imo

I expect a mass rejection on Monday so tomorrow

[desert tinsel]

its mon

[mint osprey]

yes

so 12 noon new york time

honestly we're just playing with our own emotions atp 😭

screw it bro

ive forgotten about this uni

i am going to the better NYC school 😎

[desert tinsel]

real af

[desert tinsel]

SAMEEEE im this close to just moving on by committing to my UK option

[bitter nimbus]

Bro wat u haven’t committed???!!!!

[mint osprey]

UK gives u until 8th june

[bitter nimbus]

Oh yea

[mint osprey]

@desert tinsel you must've firmed your choice tho right?

[desert tinsel]

havent firmed yet

[mint osprey]

oh, wasn't the deadline last week i thought?

[desert tinsel]

thinking about doing it rn lol

[desert tinsel]

u got this right

i have until then to firm hahaha

[mint osprey]

oh

damn

i firmed imperial

just in case something goes wrong w my US visa

[desert tinsel]

i see I see

damn youd go to stern before imperial?

[mint osprey]

yeah

[desert tinsel]

why tho

[mint osprey]

Imperial isn’t well known for finance

Their new course is insanely selective and that’s what I got into yeah but it’s their first one

stern prestige and placements are insane

Plus New York so yea

More costly fs but then again I’d get to work in the US

[desert tinsel]

niceee

[desert tinsel]

no wonder

i was thinking it was like imperial STEM or something lol

[austere carbon]

tbh there's really no harm in firming now unless u are still deciding between the ucas schools

[desert tinsel]

yeah im thinking of just firming rn LMAOOO

[austere carbon]

yea j do it HAHAH

i wanted to but im still deciding between durham n bristol

and tbh we shouldnt predict when columbia's gonna release us

no point coz it's so unpredictable

they could defo not do it today coz they cant be asked to

or they do it tomorrow like theres not strict timeline for them and they're not approaching any deadlines

[mint osprey]

probably tonight I guess

like I mean today*

[austere carbon]

it could but i also think that they might j do it whenever they feel like it lol

they could be keeping us on the wl until princeton closes their wl coz princeton movement could affect the amount of commits

im p sure columbia has a history of being the last ivy to close their wl lmao

[mint osprey]

hmm also true

Whatever

It’s joever

It’s truly joever

[austere carbon]

so like dont hold on to too much hope that they'll let us know today

coz it'll be vv emotionally taxing

bc if it doesnt come today u'll start thinking that it'll come tmr and then if not tmr the day after and so on if u get what i mean

this is literally ucas 2.0 lmfao

[desert tinsel]

SKJFSHDFJHSKFJ

youre absolutely right

yeah ill stop hoping LMAO

firmed 👍

[jovial crypt]

where

[mint osprey]

NYU

[jovial crypt]

damn ur honestly coping but have fun

😂❤️

[mint osprey]

yea ofc I’m coping

But that’s the whole fun part of it

[jovial crypt]

are you full pay

[mint osprey]

yes

[austere carbon]

congratssss!!!!

[radiant geyser]

Don’t need to cope when it’s true no cap 😪

[unique mural]

Anything?

[austere carbon]

nope

[unique mural]

Same

[jovial crypt]

pain

[austere carbon]

also, just a sidenote, but wouldnt all ivies say that waitlist movement would be limited every year

esp columbia since they dont like publishing their numbers to protect their yield

[dusk glade]

They didn’t close the waitlist?

[austere carbon]

nopee

[mint osprey]

eh no i don’t see why Columbia would openly lie about that

It’s probably average yield but since they over admitted so much they probably have an almost full class

[austere carbon]

im not saying they're lying, just that it's their standard response

[mint osprey]

nah their standard response would be that there’ll be news before 30th June

Someone on CC got that response

When they called

Another person was told about the class being full yeah

[austere carbon]

i expect yield for them to be lower this year and they didn't really over-admit when in the past few years their total admit rate was in the 2300s

[mint osprey]

we’re just coping bro

it’s over fr

[austere carbon]

yea i believe that columbia admissions said that

i just think that their whole 'waitlist movement limited' thing is something they say every year bc what else can they say if u rlly think about it

[mint osprey]

they’ll just say we’ll give news soon bro

They have no reason to say limited movement

All that would do is make waitlisted applicants forget about Columbia

[austere carbon]

but isnt waitlist movement limited every year

just by the whole nature of the waitlist

💀

[mint osprey]

[kindred edge]

Low key that makes sense… limited doesn’t mean anything

[mint osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/cope-coping-meme-gif-20734753

[austere carbon]

the only exceptions are the covid years

[kindred edge]

Limited can just mean limited by the extent of the waitinglist low key

[austere carbon]

it's not coping as much as it's critically thinking about their response

i feel like we all exaggerated their meaning lmao

[kindred edge]

I honestly just want a response. Like I am mentally already rejected, but all we can really do is wait

The process is not transparent at all

[mint osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-hawley-joe-hawley-its-joever-joever-gif-18282355701517291166

[austere carbon]

thats why it's the WAITlist ig lmao

bruh this is literally exactly like ucas in the uk

[kindred edge]

Lolllll it is kinda true

[austere carbon]

u never know when they gonna give u a decision

pain

[kindred edge]

UCL was taking their sweet time this year

[mint osprey]

they always do

[austere carbon]

fr lse as well

[mint osprey]

made me wait 8 months just to reject me

🙏

[austere carbon]

my god kings took so long

[mint osprey]

not like iwould go to ucl anyway

imperial 🔛 🔝

[austere carbon]

ucl is good for econ tho

[mint osprey]

yea but they're annoying

[kindred edge]

I don’t understand what they are doing with our apps for so long

[austere carbon]

the waitlist is extended ucas istg HAHA

[mint osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/bing-gif-25601964

[kindred edge]

I got into such a good program at UCL, I hate that I can’t afford it

Praying for the scholarship

[mint osprey]

columbia has gone john cena on us

[kindred edge]

Low key

I think they just kinda forgot about our apps and will remember some time in September or something

[austere carbon]

nah they're defo gonna get back to us at some point

i just wonder if their wl will have waves

[kindred edge]

I mean I think that’s likely

[austere carbon]

coz clearly the first wave has gone out but there really is no predicting if theres a second wave and when that would be

[kindred edge]

Since they already released some acceptances a few weeks ago

It’s either waves or all rejections now

[austere carbon]

yea fr

[kindred edge]

Yeah. I think they will probably say something this Friday

Since accepted people had until last Friday to respond

[austere carbon]

could be any day this week; not just friday

[kindred edge]

I think they don’t like releasing decisions mid week or something

Idk where I’ve read that but apparently they usually release on Fridays

[austere carbon]

no idea but they have released decisions on a weds

[kindred edge]

Really? Last years?

[austere carbon]

not last yr

last yr only had one wave

[kindred edge]

Last year it was Friday as well

Yess

[austere carbon]

they took some people off and rejected everyone at the same time

[kindred edge]

It was the 13th I think

[austere carbon]

thats why i suspect there'll be more than one wave this yr

[kindred edge]

Yes yes.

[austere carbon]

or else they would've rejected us at the same time as when people got accepted off the wl

[kindred edge]

Also they haven’t accepted anyone from SEAS

So I hope there is a wave coming

[kindred edge]

Exactly

[austere carbon]

this year's yield is probs j low imo

ive seen so many people choose other schools over columbia it's kinda baffling

[kindred edge]

Exactly and the US news probably did not help

[austere carbon]

not that they made a bad decision but more like im surprised

yea columbias reputation is kind of in the hole

the recent stabbings dont help lol

[kindred edge]

Yeah I would love to go to columbiaaaaa it’s still my dream school tho

[kindred edge]

Rightttt

[kindred edge]

Still*

[austere carbon]

yea samee

[jovial crypt]

yeah idk

they would probably say they are looking to take ppl

if they were gonna take

to increase waitlist yield

[mint osprey]

exactly

[jovial crypt]

can this shit close

i wanna accept rutgers

[fading summit]

Low key because of the fact they haven’t already closed it I think they are gonna do one more final wave and then close it

[radiant geyser]

It’s going to be like the spots that people declined on the waitlist

Because deadline to accept was last Friday

[dusk glade]

fr 😭

[austere carbon]

im not sure telling people to keep their hopes up would have anything to do with the yield tbh

[radiant geyser]

Ugh columbia

Pwease

Take me

[jovial crypt]

hurry and reject me

[austere carbon]

apparently someone got off columbia wl for cs so i think there has been a SEAS wave

[fading summit]

today?

need more info pls

[austere carbon]

not today i dont think

they have a post on the school x v school y channel

they got off for cs

oof cornell closed their wl too

[stone shuttle]

ITS NOT JOEVER.

Kidding but the fact that they haven’t sent out an email closing the wl has my hopium peaking

[kindred edge]

I think there is CS in college and in SEAS

[austere carbon]

maybe but the guy only mentioned CS but didnt specify CC or CEAS

[chrome anvil]

THIS ^^^^^^^

[dusk glade]

Anything?

💀

[unique mural]

That is a funny joke

[radiant geyser]

yup i have a feeling columbia is done

any more acceptances after this will probably be edge cases

nice knowing yall

❤️ ❤️<3

[frank jolt]

How do you get info about whether each major is full or not

[fading summit]

Well, it's not over until it's over

i honestly anticipate one more medium-sized movement before they close

Am I right to think Columbia is the last major school in terms of wl movement?

[radiant geyser]

northwestern i think will have a much larger amount of kids getting in than columbia

columbia i don't anticipate more than 30 getting in from this date

northwestern i expect at least double that

idk just speculation though

[frank jolt]

do you know when it comes out?

[patent plinth]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/13prmxk/psa_columbia_extended_waitlist/

there isn an extended waitlist

but this is just someones advice i saw on a2c for anyone who does get onto it this year, if they are doing it

tl;dr if you get on the extended waitlist, transferring to columbia as a college freshman is viable

[fading summit]

yet

[mint osprey]

no one got any email from them right

iirc someone here speculated Wednesday noon

I didn’t get anyth

[fading summit]

Radio silence

[kindred edge]

Honestly I think it’s either this Friday or sometime in June

[fading summit]

It could go till July...

at this point it's extrmely hared for me to beleive any sort of speculation

[fading summit]

https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/2027-columbia-waitlist-thread/3636329/63

Maybe!^

[radiant geyser]

Boutta get my ass rejected in a week

[fading summit]

nah, man. beleive

[radiant geyser]

I stopped believing after the Cornell and Harvard rejections

[fading summit]

wl rejections?

[radiant geyser]

Yeah

[fading summit]

harvard is expected because they are so competitive ||although one of my slightly above average friends got off|| and cornell was packed this year

but because of the columbia scandal i expect more of a turnout

I think they are just doing one wave just to consolidate

[radiant geyser]

They did a wave a few weeks ago

[fading summit]

this is obviously an exceedingly optimistic view

[radiant geyser]

Before the supposed may 15th date

[fading summit]

i still dont know how legit that is

but all of them were international, so maybe there wasa different quota they wanted to fil

[radiant geyser]

Maybe

But I already know multiple people in my state attending

So if they’re going to take me, it definitely won’t be for state representation

And as the most unhooked applicants of this world I’m kinda hopeless

[fading summit]

where are you committed to rn?

[radiant geyser]

Stern

[fading summit]

ayy that's cracked

[radiant geyser]

Not really…

People say it’s worse than most t20s

So I’m kinda meh about it

[fading summit]

stern itself is quite good

other schools at NYU are so-so

[radiant geyser]

I mean, people say to take any ivy over stern

And it’s only really good in nyc area for finance

Really specialized, but nyu undergrad doesn’t hold up to sterns relatively higher standard

[bitter nimbus]

@radiant geyser bro Stern it’s a top business school and the outcomes are insane

[dusk glade]

Nothing 💀

[fading summit]

Next Friday

[runic blade]

This sucks

[radiant geyser]

God

I’m so fucking delusional

Why me

[frank granite]

has anyone called them recently?

[mint osprey]

no

1st week of June guys

just wait

[radiant geyser]

Wait to get rejected

[mint osprey]

Yes

[unique mural]

Is the first week this week or next week?

[fading summit]

look for the first time in my life I’m not sure what a first week of a month is

[fading summit]

Tomorrow will define it
