Ya seems quite low to me too. But the deadline is on October 10, so there will be more seats filling up after that.
Thanks for the heads up.

Two more people got into ED round. One was a re-applicant (no interview this time!) and the other guy was a new applicant.

Things have started rolling now.

Yeah .. I guess their current objective is to get as many people for ED/early RD applications to Columbia as possible. Then from Oct onwards, they'll focus on giving admits as well. Moreover, they can't give admits when Linda is visiting other places. So expect a burst of admits in the next couple of weeks. Specially after the deadline is over.

I was told that if my interviewer submits information by 6th Oct, I should expect a result by 15-20 Oct. I was also told that if someone is called for an interview, then that means that the application has gone through two reviews already. The last and final review happens after interview. Hope that helps.

Did they say anything about the situation in which they skip interviews? The guy who didnt interview was a reapplicant. I am re-applicant as well, hence I am wondering.

where are you guys finding out about all these admits? BW forums? Admit411?

Anyway, anyone who applies before 10/10 is ED, right? Just wondering.

Nope, you have to specifically apply ED, which is binding.

I did. The Honor Code section at the end asks you whether you want to be bound by ED or not. I thought most people who applied in R1 do ED, maybe I'm wrong.

I confused the 10/10 date with ED automatically. I guess you all are just applying early. =)

Wondee, sorry to hear that. However, looks like you have the right attitude. Get past this, analyze what went wrong and work on other schools.

Did you interview?

There was on more ding reported on BW today.

wondee, sorry to hear that. Like DJM said, I hope that you analyze what went wrong and work on it to succeed with your other schools. All the best to you (and the rest of us).

The admission decisions seem cyclic. The last week we heard a series of acceptances and in the last 2 days I have read of 3 - 4 dings.

Havent heard of any new interview invites in the past few days.

I know, I am wasting my time and over analyzing. Cant help it though. I feel like a mad man in a dark prison looking for patterns in the air.

I applied before people who have been called for interview or have been dinged. I have still not heard anything from the ADCOM. Does it mean anything?
