If you're not going to go if you get in it'd be potentially super helpful to those of us still interested for you to just go ahead and let columbia know that you're no longer planning to attend if accepted.
Yes second this!!
Slight disagree. As someone who wants to get in, you should still ride it as long as it could possibly benefit you in some way - either attending CLS or using it as leverage. Please do withdraw once you know you cannot benefit though :)

lets be real

they're jerkin me around this long - im gonna jerk them around a lil bit

but yeah theres no downside for me to stay on so im stayin
you'd only be jerking them around if by miracle's chance you got accepted. any other outcome it is percieved they jerked you.

but it only has to make sense to you.

do you have plans to wait till next cycle or attend another school?
goin to a better schook

Haha, NYU. I hope NYU does not figure out who I am, or they would throw spears and stones at me. You?
Fordham!

lol I always wonder if they have admissions people lurking on the boards trying to figure out who isn't as committed to attending their school.

congrats on NYU
also headed to F. Can i pm you? i wanna exchange stats. curious what someone also on reserve and planning on F has. ty!
yup! go ahead :)
I'm in exactly the same situation!
Can someone post the Fordham seat deposit refund deadlines and $ that will get refunded? I think it either passed or is coming soon.

I know wrong thread. No one answered in Fordham thread

i emailed them once and they got back to me a few days later, so u may see a reply manyana. Columbia is playing us all. What a joke to waitlist everyone with a 164+.
Im waitlisted with a 152

Columbia has been my dream school for yeaars. However, if I get accepted off the waitlist-i would still have to think about it. The conclusion would be "I'm going to Columbia-duh!," but I have gotten so attached go my current school. Everything is set.

Anyone else have this feeling?

I actually secretly love my current school more, the more I get to know about it. I totally get what you are saying. But I might just stay on the waitlist and see what happens -- I most likely will jump ship since I already live in the Upper West Side, and it's a few stops closer than my otherwise downtown school.

At least-if we don't get in we are still happy.

Lol regarding commuting we are the opposite. Currently, I am about 15 min wlking distance from my school. If I got off the waitlist and attend Columbia, I am 1hr walk (i dnt mind) away and 5 stops on the 6 train then take a crosstown bus.

Given how down to the wire it's getting, I'd try to think of how you'd decide in advance and set some relatively strict guidelines for yourself so that you can be confident in whatever decision you make if admitted (like how much money you would need or the date at which you could no longer consider Columbia). I'd also research the costs involved and what you'd have to do to make the switch happen (granted, you're both NYC so it'd be largely restricted to deposit and partial tuition/fee forfeiture).

Glad to talk to anyone about this and/or walk them through my reasoning via PM if you'd find it helpful.

Thanks 34iplaw! That's great advice. I don't think I will forfeit anything other than my 500 deposit at NYU -- which I'm relatively okay with. But once I pay tuition to NYU, it's final.
