After careful evaluation of your application to the Mechanical Engineering Master of Science program for the Fall 2024 term, the Committee on Admissions at The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science regrets to inform you that your application has not been approved. You will not be considered for any additional degree programs for the Fall 2024 term. Admission to Columbia Engineering is highly selective and we are unable to accommodate the full number of talented applicants who apply each year. The time and effort you spent in preparing your application and the interest you have demonstrated is very much appreciated. The Committee wishes you success in your future educational and professional endeavors.

Not even an email out of courtesy. I logged into the MyStatus portal on a whim and got slapped with the rejection.
