Alright, dumb/neurotic question here, but are the times listed on the interview scheduling website in eastern time or are they in your own time zone? I've got to ask off work for an hour for my appointment, so just trying to be absolutely sure on the time.

Was it off the waitlist? Did he/she cure a major disease/have an Olympic gold medal/something super awesome??
When did the person get admitted?

Do you happen to have an idea of what that means for people who did not get an interview (and get in)? Or would those people be included in the "get in within the first few days of ED notifications"?Oliviapope123 wrote:My dad knows a CLS interviewer. Here’s the scoop on interviews. Columbia is moving towards interviewing all candidates. An interview is a good sign- of course make sure if there are any questionable areas on your application, that you are prepared. Reasons for interview may be random, because they find you interesting, for scholarship purposes and for those that are borderline- it means they want to take you so just be prepared and relaxed. People that get in within the first few days of ED notifications are the ones they really believe will add to the class. Hope this helps.

Did anyone send a thank you email after the interview? Not sure what common practice is.

There is just no way that a thank you email actually has any impact on their decision.

Re: Columbia c/o 2021 Applicants Thread (2017-2018)
I’m not entirely sure of your question. Many ED applicants get in without an interview. Those that got in within the first day or two are applicants with and without interviews and are people that they believe will add to the class ( shoe-ins for whatever reason). I don’t know anything about those that didn’t get in ED other than to say that getting deferred to the regular decision applicant pool is better than outright rejection. Those deferred will still have a small advantage then a similar candidate with the same stats as they are aware that you really want to go there as you were ED. Good Luck.gongjublah123 wrote:Do you happen to have an idea of what that means for people who did not get an interview (and get in)?

Weird thing just happened to me.
This morning, Columbia received my application. I was able to get onto the status checker. Now, I can no longer access the status checker. Not only that, but my Columbia law account no longer seems to exist. Anyone else have this issue?

Do we have info on how late in the cycle they will continue to offer interviews?
I want to have a good idea of when I should give up all home and cry myself to sleep nightly. Gotta put it in my planner.

Do you guys know if its common for CLS to ask for senior fall grades for K-JD applicants? Is it more common for ED rather than RD applicants?

Re: Columbia c/o 2021 Applicants Thread (2017-2018)
Got an interview tomorrow. Haven't done an interview in around 5 years.
Hit median LSAT and GPA. Very nervous about this interview because I really want to get into Columbia so any pointers would be helpful.
I think this might have something to do with applying to NYU ED (because they guarantee financial aid to graduates from my university).
