So you're telling me there's a chance...

In addition to this one guy from MSTP last week got accepted by email so it’s still possible

Did anyone have TJW from rad-onc as an interviewer and get called? I don't see his initials here and am wondering if anyone he interviewed even got accepted LOL

So at this point have all the phone calls gone out? Because it’s past 7 EST. Furthermore, has anyone received an R today post II?

I don't think anyone can answer this with confidence lol. Last year's thread had someone report an evening call and even someone a morning after call..

Just one each? Or multiple lol cuz I haven’t heard anything from mine. Oh well I’m just gonna wait it out. Again no one has gotten a call from SK?
 
Trying my hardest to stay omptimistic —about a WL at least- but my heart is shattered. :/

my interviewer has never called anyone ever which is making me delusionally hold on to some hope but I wish I could just know one way or the other

this whole day has been exhausting :dead:

*hugs* on the bright side, just a couple more hours until we know for sure!

My interviewer's never popped up on any of the previous school threads either, so I'm just like asdjflksjflaksjf

:penguin:can i just say:penguin:
this is truly and uniquely
the most unpleasant way
to go about informing applicants of their status

a brief "no" or "later" is so much better than "maybe maybe maybe maybe? maybe hi maybe! maybe" for 12 hours

Maybe people think emails are a little impersonal?

I think Yale has the best method: admissions via email (earlier than expected) with phone calls a few days later
 
took another L today sadly. Just want to say huge congrats to those who have been accepted and good luck to those still waiting.

Congrats everyone! :)

And to those who didn’t get any calls, don’t worry, if you’re accomplished enough to interview at Columbia, you’re going to do just fine (even if it’s at a 4th rate school like Harvard or Hopkins)

Do you know of people who got in the next day or without a call?
