Master Leading to PhD. Happy Valentine!

Received acceptance via FedEx. Will turn down; already accepted Cornell's M.Eng admission.

FedEx. Will turn down -- too much politics. Not enough money for NYC. Too much animal cruelty within the department. Yale is much better in Imaging.

Received a FedEx package in the mail yesterday with the acceptance. Was told I would be working with two PIs...anyone know what that means? Joint advising or lab rotations?

I called SEAS and they said they had no decision for me on file yet. Has anyone been contacting individual professors?

To the poster. I believe they will use regular mail and email. You can try to call the office to check the process. I called last week and was asked to call back this week.

To the other poster regarding Columbia admittance and the admissions packet...did you hear that you were accepted via email, website, or regular mail? And are you just waiting on the packet now?

Yup, whoever got admission packet please post it. I think it is not sent out yet though.

Anyone hear a final word on Columbia BME MS to PhD after the interview weekend?

A week from now?? I have to tell other schools in basically in a week if I want to go there. So it's gotta be past the Department at this point and now in the Graduate School admissions itself right? I don't see what is taking so long if the Dept recommended someone to be admitted then they must be good enough to get into the school...thanks for replying to my post To the other poster, Columbia had interviews for MS to PhD at the end of February. I've heard someone is interviewing at the end of March tho, so I'm not sure if there are additional interviews or if that was an exception

To the posts below: thanks for telling me the status. Actually I apply for the MS leading to PhD. Has anyone receive an interview?

I checked today, graduate office woman said they are still in review and check back like week from now. I am worried what's going on to the commitee. Extremely slow process.

I tried to contact them. They replied back by saying the admission result will be mailed early this week. I'm not sure they did but it seems like they're gonna do it my postal mail.

I haven't gotten in touch or anything. But the way that all my other schools have behaved (*shakes fist at Harvard, UPenn, etc.*) I am simply not expecting anything. There seems to be no rules this year, no adherence to any customary ways, nothing. God knows what's going on back there!!!

To the poster that responded to my post about the PhD BME program at Columbia...Have you tried emailing or calling any of the professors or anyone? Do you know if we'll hear by regular mail or email?

To the poster below... I haven't heard back yet either. I cannot possibly imagine what is taking them so long? As if they didn't have enough time to "consider" us during the recruitment weekend!

Has anyone heard a final decision from Columbia Biomedical Engineering PhD after recruitment weekend?
