| Columbia University | APPLIED ANALYTICS, Masters (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 29 Apr 2021 | | 29 Apr 2021 | - Such a loooooooooooooog wait ...
|
| Columbia University | Political Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 29 Apr 2021 | O | 29 Apr 2021 | - Ignore WL: TTPB - Thank you so much for your reply! I actually hadn't seen that update, so that's hugely reassuring, and nice to know they've provided an update. Good luck to you too!
|
| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 29 Apr 2021 | I | 29 Apr 2021 | - Yes I think so too, I did not see any relationship between admissions and GPA or GRE scores, it is a little mystery. But yes I’m really pissed with the Uni which has no sense of whatsoever. You gotta understand that it’s students who are waiting for results: all you gotta do is update, rejected or waitlisted than make them wait till the end with hopes lingering and rejecting them on their face. Pathetic.

| Columbia University | Political Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Website on 28 Apr 2021 | A | 28 Apr 2021 | - NOT WAITLISTED. Hello, fellow Columbia University applicants. It's me again; the one who commented on 04/18 and 04/24. I'm still waiting to hear back from Columbia. To answer the question that was asked by the person below me, I say to consider a "no response" from Columbia not as a rejection. The political science department updated their master's program website and stated this: "The cohort for AY21/22 will be larger than our usual MA cohort. The cohort will be around 35-40 students. This is due to the fact there will be no incoming PhD students (we paused PhD admissions for the year)". It is very possible the department is still going through thousands of applications and is taking more time than usual this academic year (because of COVID), compared to previous academic years, to figure out which applicants to admit and which to reject. It is also possible Columbia has placed those who still haven't heard back on a waitlist but never informed the students they've been placed on that waitlist. I suppose it's a matter of waiting and being patient. Again, once I hear back, I'll be posting the update here on Grade Cafe. Good luck to you all.

| Columbia University | Creative Writing Fiction, MFA (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 28 Apr 2021 | | 28 Apr 2021 | - Got an email to check my portal. Small scholarship... still not sure I can afford it though
|
| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via POST on 28 Apr 2021 | | 28 Apr 2021 | - TTPB: I HIGHLY doubt that its based on just GPA... I have a near 4.0 GPA and submitted my application all the way back in early January, and yet I still haven't heard anything from the program. I saw many admitted people who posted on here with lower GPA and/or GRE scores than mine, so I don't think its sorted by GPA/GRE at all.
|
| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 28 Apr 2021 | | 28 Apr 2021 | - TTPB: Couldn't agree more. I saw some profiles on linkedin - super BS. TBH, it's all gpa based, sort it in descending and send out the admits. NO one has time to read 100s of recommendation letters and sops. It's all a business, so relax and drink beer! Because in the end, it's all gonna be alright!
|
| Columbia University | Creative Writing Fiction, MFA (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 28 Apr 2021 | U | 28 Apr 2021 | - e-mailed to check status update today. Accepted off waitlist after a month of the waitlist notification. Offered 20k scholarship. I've committed elsewhere.
|
| Columbia University | Political Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 28 Apr 2021 | O | 28 Apr 2021 | - Ignore WL: Anyone have any idea when we might hear? Emailed the program coordinator who just directed me back to the department website, which doesn't have many details. Should I just assume a rejection at this point?

♦ | I | 28 Apr 2021 | - Rejected from UAlberta, UBC and McGill. I'm trying not to associate the rejections with my self-worth at this point. 1 year full-time research experience. 2 AAAI, 1 ICLR and 1 Springer Nature papers. 1 in review at TPAMI and 1 in review at ICCV. Strong LoRs from Google Brain and Institute Chair Prof at IIT-Bombay. 1 AI startup internship, 2 research internships at top-tier labs, 2xGSoC in AI/ML. Strong research fit with profs and several National Awards. Congratulations to those who made it!

| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 28 Apr 2021 | I | 28 Apr 2021 | - So the results will be uploaded on 30th? A few observations, saw the profiles of the candidates who have been accepted. Was surprised to see the profiles and wondered if the Ivy league status is as selective as they claim. It is not tough to get in, just a lil bit of luck, have seen generic profiles make in. If mass rejections are coming up then Columbia must face consequences of wasting 3.5 months for doing so, an applicant pays money to be reviewed and needs answers to decide on other programs and get Visas as well. Reflects extremely poor on the program and University. All the best guys, brace yourselves.rn

| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 28 Apr 2021 | | 28 Apr 2021 | - For the WL, we are finally almost there. they said April 30. So, only two more days to go. After that if you don't receive any response from them. Then, you defiantly need to give up on them :p. I am waiting for their response too thou I have a strong feeling it is a rejection with a small hope of acceptance

| University Of British Columbia | Pure Mathematics, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 28 Apr 2021 | I | 28 Apr 2021 | - Sent an email and was notified they do not plan on making any new offers. We shall get our rejection next week.
|
| Columbia University | Statistics, Masters (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 27 Apr 2021 | | 27 Apr 2021 | - There's a groupme for admitted master's students called "Columbia Masters 2021." I have no idea how one adds themself to it tho lol
|
| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 27 Apr 2021 | O | 27 Apr 2021 | - TTPB: (Ignore WL) And to add to that, even if you do get accepted, they would only give you 2 weeks to make a decision and a $4,000 security deposit to pay (which is a lot). I submitted my application 5 months ago and still no status. I feel like I should just give up at this point lol.

| Columbia University | Data Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 27 Apr 2021 | | 27 Apr 2021 | - Ignore WL: This is getting unacceptable... and it's hurting my ability to decide on other schools... If this is how serious they treat us as applicants, I think it reflects on the integrity of the program as well...

| University Of British Columbia | Civil And Environmental Engineering, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 27 Apr 2021 | I | 27 Apr 2021 | - Generic rejection email. Good luck to the lucky ones!

♦ | I | 27 Apr 2021 | - Interviewed by two POIs of the same group. One POI said my app was strong but the number of applicants was immense. The other interviewed me twice, once before deadline and then in January. Not sure what happened here.
