I did and was asked about them in my interview - it's a good opportunity to show you're not just numbers on a page.InterLaw wrote:I did! There is an interesting thing I'm practicing in this period and I thought it was worth some lines... It's not actually so "fun", it's interesting and it didn't come up anywhere else in my app!kiklavan wrote:Did any of you write "fun facts" ?

Lmao. Yeah I kept wanting to crack jokes as I filled it out so that maybe they would think I'm fun, friendly, and hip and just magically look over my 169 lsat score lmaomwells56 wrote:At the end of mine I said that I hope they thought I was a fun guy, like a mushroom!kiklavan wrote:Did any of you write "fun facts" ?

yeah i basically told them about the kinds of youtube videos i watch and that i like to play bass and ukulele and then put in the bad pun at the end for the exact same reason. those kinds of things are set up for you to be silly, so might as well take advantage of itkiklavan wrote:Lmao.

Re: Columbia c/o 2021 Applicants Thread (2017-2018)
Just did my interview this past week. It went well. More of a conversation than an interview.
Why Columbia?
Why undergrad major?
Several questions regarding my work experiences.
Several personal questions from my statement.
I was told that I'd hear back around the end of January. A long wait until then...
Good luck to everyone else!

Does CLS make scholarship decisions simultaneously with admission's decisions?

If I didn't complete a fun facts list because I totally did not see it. Should I send it in after I've already sent in the app?

I thought so too but since I was ED maybe they thought mail wouldn't make it in December with Christmas? They also wrote "happy holidays " at the bottom of the letter before scanning so I think they were making a point of letting me know before Christmas (or atleast I'm pretending that's the case)Aplet wrote:Thought it was snail mail?tmcauliffe96 wrote:Congrats!!!15atay wrote:Just got in Via email!!!

If you look back in the thread pretty sure all acceptances have been by email so far. Anyone know best practice for ED put on hold writing an LOCI? I assume given the ED it's obvious I'm still interested...Aplet wrote:Is it safe to assume you are not in the NY area?15atay wrote:I thought so too but since I was ED maybe they thought mail wouldn't make it in December with Christmas?
