Columbia MFE Columbia MFE admissions results

[ShivC]

I see the number of accepted and enrolled students is very low, at least on this platform. How could we analyze this and extrapolate it to real numbers?

Columbia cancels in-person classes as demonstrations sprout up on US campuses to protest Israel war

Also, at Yale, police have arrested dozens of students as tensions over the war in the Middle East continue to grow.

Situation doesn't seem that good at Columbia, their daily functioning must definitely be impacted due to this.

I still haven't received any sort of updates in the application portal. It's the usual checklist as before. Are they planning to send rejections anytime soon?

On the same boat. If CU doesn't want me or give me wl, please tell me instead of ghosting

Do yall think these protests will affect the MFE program at all? I don’t see why they would, but it does make me nervous as I committed there.

no shot lol. Would be surprised if this whole deal isnt wrapped up within the next few weeks at most.

Mine still shows under faculty review

My login portal still shows the checklist with no change in status of any kind.
No intimation from Columbia.
Is there hope still?

Honestly Columbia taking this much time to respond is a big red flag. It is not that complicated to evaluate applications and admit those who are most qualified. If the program actually has the best interest of their potential students in mind, they would not make them wait until May to know where they will go to graduate school. Not to mention the fact that we paid money to have our applications evaluated with the expectation we would have a decision by March. At this point, even if I was accepted I would decline solely based on the programs clear incompetence.

 

[fhu]

I totally agree. Even visa slots have opened and yet we are still hoping to receive a decision soon from Columbia.

Any updates from anyone? Things seem to be quiet ...

 

[potatopeeler]

Application changed to "Current Status" today.

 

[fhu]

Absolutely nothing. They haven't reviewed my application yet and it's way past the deadline

 

[smithquant]

have you guys not seen whats going on at columbia. i dont think the committee is getting any work done right now

 

[fhu]

Yea. But isn't it their responsibility to let us know an update regarding the delay? Why are they ghosting like this?

Dear fhu,

The deadline to apply is in a few days and we send offers on a rolling basis. We are not ghosting the applicants. Please remember that the MAFN program is very competitive.
