Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 19 Mar 2021 | I | 19 Mar 2021 | - TTPB asking btwn Columbia and Wisconsin , I was in a similar situation and chose Wis over Columbia , as I felt their CS prog was stronger . Hope it helps

Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 19 Mar 2021 Undergrad GPA: 9.30 GRE General (V/Q/W): 162/168/4.50 GRE Subject: n/a ♦ | I | 19 Mar 2021 | - (Not waitlisted). Could someone offer a suggestion between Columbia MS CS and UW Madison MS CS(fully funded)? The CS Theory group is better at Columbia but the courses are better at UWM. I plan to go for a PhD in CS Theory related areas.

University Of British Columbia | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 19 Mar 2021 | | 19 Mar 2021 | - ttpb: Congrats! Can you please mention the initial of your POI?
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 19 Mar 2021 | I | 19 Mar 2021 | - TTPB who asked: Columbia MS CS or Harvard SM Computational Science and Engineering
Definitely Columbia MS CS, since the SM CSE at Harvard is only 1 year, and isn't really a CS degree. (I'm assuming you want to do something CS-related after your degree)
Also, did you get a Harvard SM CSE Admit this year, or was it a deferred admit?

Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Accepted via Other on 18 Mar 2021 | A | 18 Mar 2021 | - Columbia MS CS or Harvard SM Computational Science and Engineering?
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 18 Mar 2021 | O | 18 Mar 2021 | - To any Columbia MS CS admits, can you share the time of day you get the email notification to check the portal ? Thanks

University Of British Columbia | Computer Science, PsyD (S21) | Interview via Phone on 17 Mar 2021 | | 17 Mar 2021 | - TTPB Not Interview. To the angry post before, could you recount what happened that prompted you to say this? I was intrigued by prof's initials DKP, thanks!

Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 Undergrad GPA: 3.81 GRE General (V/Q/W): 167/170/5.50 GRE Subject: n/a ♦ | A | 17 Mar 2021 | - Rejected from PhD, offered consideration for MS after video interview. Was pretty flustered for the video interview and feel like I did not do well. My stats - Honors in EECS from top 5 US school, GRE 170Q/167V/5.5W, 6 years software engineering and startup experience in POI's research area but no publications & all LORs from industry. Rejected everywhere this year, should have applied to some safer schools. Congrats everyone that got in.

Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 Undergrad GPA: 3.60 GRE General (V/Q/W): 0/0/0.00 GRE Subject: n/a ♦ | A | 17 Mar 2021 | - Had the option to apply for a Master's, I didn't indicate any interest in doing that on my application though. Took them long enough!
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 | O | 17 Mar 2021 | - TTPB. No, if I open the e-form, I simply need to say I am interested in the MS and that I understand that I will have to participate in the video interview. Pretty simple I guess--no extra fees.
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 17 Mar 2021 | O | 17 Mar 2021 | - TTPB : Thanks for the response.Do you have to pay the application fee again too ?
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Wait listed via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 | | 17 Mar 2021 | - TTPB I think I applied PhD and then stated that I would be interested in MS if I didn't get the PhD. But, I thought I would be automatically considered for the MS, not have to fill out another application. At this point, I'm not interested b/c of a better offer.

Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 | I | 17 Mar 2021 | - They have somehow saying you are considered for MS, is it legit or they have asked everyone?
|
Columbia University (Fu Foundation) | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 | I | 17 Mar 2021 | - Gave an interview in Jan with non POI. Got rejection today. There is an option to apply for MS though, is the acceptance rolling based?
|
Columbia University | Computer Science, PhD (F21) | Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2021 Undergrad GPA: 3.97 GRE General (V/Q/W): 166/169/5.00 GRE Subject: n/a ♦ | A | 17 Mar 2021 | - I also got the option to apply for a Masters. TTPB, if I didn't have a better offer I would probably do it. I think this is what they're offering to the candidates they would have taken as PhDs if this wasn't such a brutal year (so many reasons why there aren't the normal amount of spaces). Maybe MS would transition to PhD next year?? Anyway, good luck to all.
