*********OFFICIAL COLUMBIA C/O 2020 INTERVIEW/ACCEPTANCE*****

if you guys want the fb group link feel free to personal message me
 
I've been told through the grapevine that someone who interviewed there last week was told to expect another round of acceptances by the end of this week or middle of next week, but I also constantly lie about everything.

They will send an email with the orientation website, which gives you info on how to register for an email, housing, immunizations etc

Waitlisted as well. Do all interviewees get a waitlist spot?
 
Withdrew acceptance today. Good luck to everyone on the waiting list; this is an amazing school

what school are you going to?
 
Anyone get accepted WITHOUT a strong research background?
I'm applying this cycle, and I only have 1 semester of research.

It's nice to see another fellow from the 561. I do not know how much emphasis is put on research. I had 1,000 hours of research and did not talk about research in any of my interviews. Hopefully you did research the last semester before you apply. It might look suspicious if it was just a random semester.
 
I'm applying this upcoming cycle and wanted to know if Columbia is a long shot for me to get an acceptance. Can some of you all who were accepted with lower scores share your stats?

I'm probably on the low end of their stats spectrum, but I interviewed in February and got accepted in March. 21AA/22PAT, 3.33GPA

I had good extracurriculars, great shadowing and volunteering, and a co-author publication for a high end journal under my belt though. Well rounded application really helps, especially for Columbia if your stats are low.

thanks for all the great advice guys! I think I've got the scores/extracurriculars to get an interview so I'll have to focus mainly on that.

Cheers
 
Even though I'm not British, I love saying cheers , idk why but they just got something right on that one , glad someone else thinks so too [emoji16][emoji4]
