A | 10 May 2021 | At long last, a decision. Unsurprisingly I was rejected. I have been considered for another masters program at Columbia, so I will wait and hear from them (hopefully sooner than this one). 3.7 GPA and strong letters of recommendation. However, little research experience, which may help explain the rejection. Good luck to everyone! |

| Columbia University | Political Science, Masters (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 10 May 2021 | I | 10 May 2021 | Aight guys, I finally got a decision and it wasn't what I was hoping for. Top grad from top uni in the UK, so obviously a bit disappointed. Turned out no news actually was bad news for me... Anyways, never give up on your dreams etc etc... Wishing those of you who are still waiting to hear back the best of luck! |

U | 10 May 2021 | This was my top choice, I'm completely devastated. Really thought my profile was good enough but I was wrong. CS competition is insane at this point it seems. I guess I'll be headed to USC now... |
| Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 10 May 2021 | 10 May 2021 | All of my friends living in India have been rejected. Don't know if this is related to the present COVID and embassies conditions in India or application have been clearly rejected on academic standards. I can see all have been rejected on gradcafe. | |

| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Website on 10 May 2021 | I | 10 May 2021 | I’ve seen only rejects and waitlists coming in every weekend. Does it make sense to hope for an admit anymore? There hasn’t been any for the past 2-3 weeks. |

| Columbia University | Political Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Website on 8 May 2021 | A | 8 May 2021 | NOT WAITLISED! Hello, again, fellow Columbia polisci MA applicants. This is the same person that responded on April 28th. Today is May 8th and still no response from Columbia. Holly Martis is the political science department's Graduate Program Coordinator (dropping her name here in case anyone is interested in contacting her about the application review process). I've decided I will not reach out to the political science department or the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences because we all know what they will tell us if we inquire about our applications! They will respond by stating we, the applicants, must wait until we receive an official email indicating a decision has been made on our applications because, under university/graduate school/department policy, the status of an application cannot be divulged to the applicant until they receive that official email. There really exists no point in reaching out to the graduate program coordinator, department, or the graduate school...we all just have to wait...there is nothing we can do but wait. Here is something I found on the political science department's website: "The department continues to admit students through the spring. Hence, notifications to students who are declined admission usually are not sent until the early summer. Although the department recognizes that this is less than ideal for most candidates who may be weighing other options, the department cannot respond to applicant inquiries until the admission process is complete". Whether I'm rejected or accepted, I'll be returning to Grad Cafe to inform you all. My final analysis: Columbia seriously needs to hurry up...I'm sure an admissions committee position calls for a lot of work and I'm sure it's exorbitantly difficult to decide which students will be accepted and which will not and I'm sure it's very time-consuming...but c'mon people...if you already made a decision just let us know already...Christ! Anyway...good luck to you all. |
