Subslaw: Sorry to hear that...Tue Mar 21, 2006 07:58 PM In my case, I am still patiently waiting... This "rolling-basis" thing does not make too much sense to me, though, since I sent my application in November... Evidently my file is piled up with others that got there a lot later...or maybe in some kind of wait list... Anyway, let's see when I hear from CLS like so many other colleagues here in this board... |

Tue Mar 21, 2006 08:50 PM I believe mine is piled in there along with yours. Due to work demands of my present job, I ended up not getting a chance to courier my application off until the 11th hour. |

Wed Mar 22, 2006 01:44 PM hi Hi Subslaw: I've been admitted to Georgetown, NYU as well...still waiting for HLS and CLS. No funding from anywhere so far either though... :( But out of NYU and GULC I still have no clue where I should go...there're pros and cons for both and clock is ticking to enroll... |

Did anybody emailed or faxed notification letters of other universities, requesting a expedited reply from Columbia? If yes, how long before they answered? Thu Mar 23, 2006 07:32 PM I sent an email with my notificaiton letter of Berkelely attached asking a response before the 28th of March but did not hear anything since. Good luck to everybody! |

When did you guys who got admitted applied ? Sat Mar 25, 2006 04:35 PM Unfortunately, I did it only at the deadline. Do you think that I still stand a chance ? |

I did apply on the very deadline as well. So be patient. I called the admissions office earlier this week and they confirmed that the review process will last until end of April. I am sure people will still receive admission emails. Contrary to some other universities, Columbia seems to email applicants as soon as they make a decision on each case (or a bunch of them). Meaning that, as long as you have no rejection email, you can receive an admission one. It happened to me. Believe!

Hey, to those who applied late, I applied late, like last minute kind of deal, and I just got admissions e-mail on Friday (Ireland). Going nuts waiting for decisions from these places. I dont know if anyone else here has experienced the mystery that is the Harvard test e-mail. The whole thing seems exceptionally cruel. Why build people's hopes only to dash them utterly in a few days? That board seriously freaked me out. I'm glad I didnt find this site until today or I would have been a nervous wreck. Sun Mar 26, 2006 04:32 AM So far, Yale no, NYU yes, Columbia yes. Waiting on Cambridge and Harvard. I know some people heard from Harvard on Friday, but to be honest, considering the total randomness of the decision making process in each law school and the sheer number of applications and admissions places I dont think you can read anything into the fact that some people have received admissions e-mails and others havent. All this speculation about what different things mean and time limits and geographical locations of admissions is like fortune telling. Absolute crap! I work at a law school in Ireland, and believe me, administration follows no rules and cannot be assessed or predicted. Its like a practical application of chaos theory. The only one that seemed to be on the ball was NYU, who did the whole thing very professionally and with minimal amount of fuss. If you didnt get in this time I wouldnt worry. I sent in applications to same places 2 years ago and I was rejected all round. It was a rather depressing time to say the least. But I made determined effort to plump up CV and experiences. Set myself goals and this year things seem to be going well. Point is dont give up. I really hope everything works out for people posting here. Its kind of nice to know that there are other people who freak about this as much as I do. |
