Hi !
I received an interview invitation from Columbia in September, and my interview is coming.
Is there anything else I need to do except making an interview appointment ?
Do I need to send transcripts or photos ?
In e-invitation, they said that they enclosed travel information, but I couldn't find any attachment. Also, I just received a "very short" confirmation email. Is this all ? Compared to other schools I interviewed at, columbia looks very very simple...

Is there anyone who interviewed at Columbia already who can give me an idea about these ?

Hi,
I received an e-invitation to interview at Columbia as well. I didn't have any travel information attached in my email either. I was wondering about that as well... It's the holidays now so I'll have to wait until next week to actually get in touch with them and iron out details... If you've already had your interview, would you mind sharing some details about it? Did you end up needing to bring anything extra along with you? Good luck! 🙂

you dont need to bring anything with you at all. i would recommend hotel 99. i stayed there for $100/night and it was very clean (recently renovated) and right on the 1 subway line, which you can take to columbia.

on AADSAS the status near Columbia says " Recieved/ Application completed"-----does that mean im going to get rejected?

no, it doesn't really mean anything. i've interviewed at one of my schools and my AADSAS still says "waiting for additional materials" for that school, so don't follow that. you could receive an invite from columbia, but how late did you apply?



see my predents profile for stats. that's what it's there for 😀

their averages for the DAT are also consistently high. if you got a 21+ you prolly will hear something.
