Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[sahars]

Just got an offer. I believe my status changed around a month after submission as well.

I guess no current status means rej

 

[Andy Nguyen]

Lot of decisions but no update on Tracker. Come on, let's light it up with your offers, guys.

Screw that, I may be rejected at the end, but I'm not taking that as a sign of rejection

You can just google xiaohongshu. It is a Chinese social media platform so you might need a translator. Just search Columbia mfe in it

 

[quantchoices]

Oh do we need to register for an account to search?

 

[serana]

I just heard back today and I was accepted.

Congrats. What time was it? And was it by email?

So will all decisions be out by tomorrow given tomorrow is the last business day of March? I still have not heard anything...

Nope, at least I called admissions some time ago and they said they will be sending decisions until April as well.

The tracker still doesn't have as many entries for Columbia as I would have expected. I wonder how many acceptances have been rolled out yet.
Have they put anyone on waitlist yet or anyone whose application has been moved to "be reviewed by the faculty" but yet hasn't received any decision?
Mine hasn't even moved to be reviewed by the faculty, I don't what to make of this...

 

[drakaron]

Could you please put your entries as well @srj.

 

[dudepc]

Any news?

Is the GRE an important component? Do we need to score full marks? Thought this became optional…

If you feel your application could use some boosting the GRE could help supplement, however only submit a good one. If you feel like its already strong, don’t bother wasting your time taking it.

I don't think its published for MFE but GRE for admitted candidates in Columbia MAFN is usually a perfect quant score so probably the same for here.
