Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[xmdd]

Got the waitlist email too. It says it’s unlikely for them to admit anyone from the waitlist this year. So I guess they are almost done with all admits and only with some (infrequent) cases that some admitted students decide at a very late time not to attend this program (for example, CMU MSCF round 2 decision day is May 5) will they consider admitting a few applicants from the waitlist.

Atleast they should update status on FAQs page stating decisions will be sent by 'Mid April' or 'Late April' or something. People should get some clarity on by which date we can expect decision on all applications. If they are sending out results in rounds based on acceptance behaviour then they should take the applications in rounds like Round 1 in Jan and Round 2 in Feb/Mar. This is totally unfair for people who submitted applications at same time and still awaiting results.
