Has anyone tried calling or emailing to check on the current status of the whole admission process? The wait is just too anxious.

I tried emailing them last week since I had a deadline for another uni, got a reply saying they would not be able to provide an exact date for the decision just that it is under review currently
 
Today was the deadline for accepting my offer and I just received an email saying my offer has now expired, so waitlisted people should expect to hear back v soon :)

Has anyone been waitlisted? I went through all the replies above and didn’t see anyone got waitlisted/rejected? Does that mean there is still a chance for people who have no updates so far to get an admit?

Yeah definitely still have a chance, depending on how many people accept their offers. Columbia gave me 2 weeks after the day the offer was made to accept, so I’m assuming the automatically offered the place to someone else now

I don't think there have been any rejections or waitlist notices yet, I guess, unlike previous years, they should be sending offers on a rolling basis this year, but interestingly enough, I have noticed that many of my friends who have received offers have rejected them...

Why are most people disinterested in joining columbia MFE ? Has the program dropped in ratings? Or has the program been on a decline in the last couple of years?

Why is this happening though? Has columbia dropped in ratings ? Or has the program been in a down trend in the past couple of years?

I think a lot of the similar caliber programs like UChicago, NYU and CMU offering scholarships in addition to the crazy COL in NYC nowadays is probably a big factor.
