Columbia MFE Anyone still waiting for Columbia MFE?

Lol. They can at least let us know if it's a reject. Would help us move on at least.
 
Thanks for the update. I really need to hear something from them even if it’s a rejection.
Last time, I went to the admission office and they told me that they canceled the redirect policy this year. So I am wondering if anyone receives the redirect.
 
And just got this "

Anybody could tell me, since I'm a Chinese, is this a polite "NO" in the US culture?

I'm also Chinese and I believe you've still got a chance as long as you don't receive the rej, though miracles almost never happen. My guess is that they are still waiting for deposits for the previous admits and might still have some room available, but a decision is gonna be finalized soon.

Did the admission send you this email? Or they were writing back to you?
 
You can just check the history record and you will find trackers after 4.15 (mid to late April) are all about rejections. So prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

I got the same one. It’s not a rejection it’s just saying that since there’s so many applicants it will take longer then usual to give out results.
