Graduate School Admission Results

TTPB: No update yet :(

ignore wl. Anybody has any update today? someone said the results will be out on the 30th which is today.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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...

ignore wl. TTPB: Do u know what does it mean by 'graduate student strikes'? Does it mean there are too many applicants or is there something else happening?

Ignore Waitlist. Just heard back from the admissions director. They are currently struggling with graduate student strikes and will likely send out results by the end of April.

Ignore waitlist. TTPB: To the one who posted regrading decision between Upenn and Columbia Data Science. Can you tell which university you are inclined towards and why?

An email that told to check the portal. Received the email at 5:54 PM on Monday, March 22. They want a deposit of $4,000 within 2 weeks.

Ignore WL; Did everyone get a reply already? I applied Priority 1 deadline but still haven't received a reply. Have I been rejected? :(

Ignore WL. Have any of you who applied last year got any acceptance this year? I reapplied because of COVID..

Ignore WL. TTPB: I was admitted without Gre

[TTPB] - I do not see GRE/TOEFL score on my checklist. I did submit my official scores but I don't see it anywhere on the checklist. Nothing marked as official/unofficial. Is it the same for others too?

(IGNORE WL) Did anyone who did not submit GRE scores get admitted (since it was optional)? If No, it kind of seems unfair given that they made it optional! Also, any idea by when all the acceptances will be sent out? And when waitlists/rejections will be sent out?

TTPB: I received the admit without any interview. I believe they only interview those who are on the edge. Hope this helps!
