Columbia Early Review


gppinheiro

Hi everyone!

Since deadline has come and gone for application to Columbia's early review process, I would like to know who suceeded in applying through this choice.

Last year results started to come out early December, and there was even a rejection as soon as November 30.

As for me, I applied through the early review and hopefully expect to hear from them soon.

I did succeed! Regarding results in early December, I hope you're right...(they say that results will be avaliable late that month) Do you know if they send you an e-mail of acceptance/rejection or you just have to wait for regular mail?

Hi Daverod,

As far as I know, they send their decisios by e-mail; or so it was last year, according to some LLM-board members.

By the way, where are you from?

Best of luck to you!

Thanks for your reply!

I'm from Venezuela. If your nickname is related to your last name you should be from Brazil, but I'm just guessing here...

Good guessing! I'm from Brazil.

Tough competition around here: lots of applicants. Nothing we can do about right now. Let's just cross our fingers and hope for the best.

reviewing the posts from last year, it seems that we won't get any news before the end of December.
I am a French student and I also applied in the early review. I've already applied last year and got rejected. Though I redid the whole application, they told me that my previous material would be reviewed as well...
Let's hope that Santa Claus will be generous with me this year!

Nothing yet!

And yes, the wait is a killer!! Last year's results began to be released mid December only.

I hope we hear good news soon; maybe next week!

It crossed my mind too. Anxiety is killing me!

However, I think they must be pretty busy processing all the applications. Besides, their instructions clearly asserts that:
"Admissions decisions for the Early Review Program are made by the end of December. Applicants will either be accepted, rejected or deferred to the regular admission cycle. All other admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis, in most cases no later than early May".

So, maybe CLS is sticking to its timeline this year! But I estimate they will be sending out results by the end of next week...(just wishful thinking though).
