I just printed it out. Everybody ready for mock cold calls?
Hmm, definitely should've registered under a different name...:P I didn't even think about the possibility of cold calls!

Has anyone called to confirm that their forms/W-2s arrived on time? Post office isn't showing mine as delivered, but they were sent last Monday, so I'm tempted to call, but I feel like they must be swamped with mail/communications at the moment, and I'd hate to annoy them.

I called in the other day to ask about the questionnaire/tax returns etc and they said 3/1 was a soft deadline, so I wouldn't stress too much about it. just give it a few days and if it's still not showing as delivered then call.

Thanks, that's what I figured. Not much I can do about it anyway if it's running a few days late!

If one received a named scholarship (i.e., Hamilton or Butler), is it worth it to apply for aid from Columbia? I understand that NeedAccess and FAFSA are used for other schools as well, but am wondering whether I should be rushing to get all of it in today.

Spoke to financial aid today and can confirm 3/1 is the soft deadline.

Also agree. Everything about it impressed me. I really liked the people I met, and was blown away by the profs.

...Now to convince them to match my NYU offer

Wasn't offered any money... should I be attempting to negotiate for anything with a 175 LSAT and 25<GPA<50? Didn't get anything from NYU or Chicago either

The answer is always 'yes' to 'should I be trying to negotiate scholly money.' The worst they say is no.
