Columbia ETP 2016

Published

Hello!

I know this is a bit early, but I'm planning to apply to the apply to the Columbia Entry to Practice Program (among a few others) this fall. I've seen similar forums for past application periods, and thought it might be nice to get one started so we can start to bounce ideas and questions off each other.

Has anyone been to an open house? Any information worth sharing?

Hi everyone! I've been following this thread for a while now and wanted to jump in on the action. I have to admit I'm TERRIFIED for decisions to come out! Hopefully we'll all get good news, best of luck to everyone!

Also, I do not live in Manhattan but I'm very familiar with the area so if anyone needs housing advice I'm here to help :)

Hey emara9,

Funny enough, I am from San Francisco! It is not fun to have a car in the city, you often have to pay for parking as there is so few free spots. However, if you live outside SF (which is likely as San Fran is more expensive than New York now) it is not hard to have a car.

I would recommend living in Oakland, and that way you can commute to the city on bart when you do not have to drive in.

Has anyone called to ask when they expect to post decisions? Ahh i am so anxious!!

I still haven't called. This waiting is just brutal though! My guess is some time next week....

I just might. Snow day in Boston for most schools and I don't intern today so I'm stuck inside, refreshing the application page and checking emails [emoji30][emoji30][emoji25]

Thank you all for the housing info! I guess I will try to not worry about it until they put out decisions....but that's good to know that cars aren't required. I would really not look forward to driving my car from CA to the east coast before the program! Anyone think there's a possibility we will find out today? In the past it's been around the first weekend of Feb, I think. I'm trying to focus at work but it's hard!

Well, it's Friday afternoon already, so I guess decisions will come in next week. Now, the nervousness has really begun for me...anyways, good luck to everyone, these postings are going to get a lot more traffic come next week and hopefully with mostly good news ;)
