Subscription pricing
I submitted my application to Columbia on Jan. 5 and was waitlisted yesterday. When I was filling in the reserve form I discovered the form was titled "first reserve", does anyone know what it means? Thxxx!

There is a first reserve, a second reserve, and a third reserve (you can event visit the URLs for these pages where you opt in to the reserve list!). They are listed not in order or hierarchy but strictly ordered by time/cycles. Here's how it works:
If you are put on the reserve list from regular admissions, you are placed on first reserve to be reviewed at the end of May (once the school has heard back from their students admitted ED/RD).
In the end of May, you are either accepted or rejected or placed on second reserve to be reviewed again in June, depending on the number of folks that accept or reject their ED/RD offer.
Near the end of June, this second reserve pool goes through the process again: either rejected, accepted, or deferred again to the third reserve depending on the folks who accept/reject from the first reserve pool.
Near the end of July, this third reserve pool goes through the process once again, except everyone is either rejected or accepted. There is no fourth reserve.
I also got on first reserve at Columbia. :B Hoping to publish this paper I've been working on to show some recent accomplishments for my letter of continued interest. Best of luck!
