Columbia MSOR MSOR waiting list, any possibility?

[doladd]

Does anybody have ideas about how many people will be admitted in MSOR?
I heard the class size would be 100+. In this case, being waitlisted means rare hope. Am I right?

i think MSOR has a lower acceptance rate and hence a higher conversion rate frm waitlist ,as can be seen on quantnet. A good amount of them have been redirected frm MSFE who might not be interested at all in MSOR .

thanks achilles. at the first glane i agree with you. But i see from checker that quite over 50% confirmed msor as their final decision. so maybe this year is harsh and many applicants have to a program that may not be their first choice.
