Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[Azurey]

No i do not know the specific numbers. It's not possible to know what goes on behind the doors of the admission room at Columbia with certainty but i did talk to a few current students and they said the same thing.

I have quite the opposite experience actually. I was told that there are around 200-250 candidates who are being interviewed and the final class size is 70. So it's actually a 1:3 chance that you're in. Maybe your friends were talking about getting admitted to Columbia, as the OR size is quite huge, and there's a better chance there.

I declined the offer since it's $100k(!) compared to better funding and smaller tuition costs at other programs.

actually i asked this question and the interviewee told me that the admission rate for those got interviews is roughly 50%

 

[Benjamindana]

@Joseph SUN . No problem I'll let you know. But I think that the deadline on April 15, is for the spring semester so it should not be a problem for us . I'll give you a definitive answer ASAP .

Log onto your application page. If you have received an offer, you will see an Offer tab just like you did with an Interview tab.

 

[rohitguptagre]

I dont see any activity in my application page

Do you guys know if columbia always offers you admission to MSOR if you got an interview but didnt get accepted to MFE? It seems like this was the case last year.
