Bachelor's from Pakistan. 2 research internships (1 in germany and 1 in Pakistan). 1.5 years of research oriented work experience in Machine Learning.

Got the rejection letter on 4/15...I already committed to UIUC and I am not expecting acceptance from them. But I don't understand why it took them so long to make decisions.

Admissions committee is such a group of wankers, deliberately delaying the results ... the excruciatingly long wait has killed all the excitement of previous admit

also have heard nothing from them. I plan on emailing them and trying to get a refund of my application fee because this is ridiculous

I can guess rejection by not having heard any notice from the admission office. As they received that amount of application fee, it is their DUTY to inform about any official decisions they made. They ignored my request about asking current decision making status from Feb., and keep sending me ad about MS program lol. Did I pay application fee for getting ad emails??

Yo ho, yo ho, investing in $ROPE is for me

Need to response by 22 April

Got an e-mail to check the result on the website. I expect that my name maybe on the waitlist so the result just release today.

finally heard back! happy to be accepted but received no funding/scholarships :')

So it's grad day and it looks like no one's heard anything from Columbia...? Can anyone confirm being accepted or rejected...?

Directly applied by the early deadline. Will be declining. Ended up getting into a PhD program somewhere else so accepted that offer instead!

Received an $8,000 scholarship, however, I will be declining the offer since I've already accepted an offer for a PhD program. Hope that will free up a spot and some financial aid for another student!

...anddd I got my update! Waitlisted, but so grateful not to have been rejected outright. Congrats to everyone who got in, and fingers-crossed I make it off the list (my first choice and dream school)!

Congratulations to the person accepted to the Columbia MA program on 04/14/2021! Were you a direct Masters candidate? When were you interviewed? Thank you!

Ignore waitlist! English folks -- I saw a lot of decisions from this department over the last few days... Anyone still waiting? For those that received a decision, when did you apply?

For the guy WL asking. I am waiting same as you. I saw someone posted his acceptance yesterday. So, there might be a possibility that you get accepted. However, I believe those who got accepted had already received the notification. Now, they want to see who reject the offer in order to send the notification to the next inline. So, you need to hope that not all accept the offer and you are close in line. Best of luck

Ignore Waitlist. Has anyone heard back from the Department? Any chance of getting an admit now?

I am super super excited about this! Columbia has always been my dream school and I am so happy that I got accepted.

Is there any chance of being selected without an interview and having not heard back till mid April?

Accepted off the waitlist
