Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Application Discussion

[epiphamus]

Congrats on MIT admit. Please do let me know what the response is in case you decide to contact Columbia.

response was pretty much to suck it up and wait haha

I used to like Columbia until I met NYU Finmath. Byebye columbia. 1year program sucks

Sure one year program? Seems so many counterparts have changed into 1 year and a half. Indeed too short time span will impact negatively on placement.

 

[ssssyyf]

Is anyone still waiting for admits? Is there still room for admits?

Yesterday, I heard someone has received ad. I think there is still room

 

[kiryu]

Still haven't heard anything from Columbia MFE while my other admits' deposit deadlines are approaching.
Is there still room for ad? Am I rejected?

 

[Bangor.Z]

Same here. I'm comforting myself that, isn't their deposit deadlines appreaching a good news for us? Hopefully they would go to CMU or Princeton or UCB to release some room. orz

Hey. Thanks for the update. Do you know what the deposit deadline for them is? I get really screwed up if they don't let me know my result by 15th.

Just asked my friends who received their acceptances on Mar.29, theirs are due today. I guess this is the last 24 hours to keep that hope in mind.

I followed the application deadline and completed my interview in early Feb.

Is there any chance of admits still being rolled out? I have a deposit deadline on Monday for another program.

you can transfer your ddl e-mail to the admission office to ask for a result.

Thanks. I will do the same. But don't I have a higher chance of rejection (in case I am waitlisted) if I do so?

if you have a university's ddl which shares the same tier with Columbia, they will consider you seriously.

Right. It's for another program at Columbia Business School (MSAFA). How would it play out in this case?

sorry! i do not know this program concretely. maybe you can search to find out its reputation

No problems. Just wanted to know if they would just reject me as I already have another Columbia admit and the 'money' will still flow into the school (if I do accept the other program).
