What's GSAS?
Don't you think that putting pressure on them might lead to a "No Admit"?

GSAS stands for Graduate school of art and sciences. Seems like all the rej letters come from them and the acceptance letters come from Melissa...
@Devdeep They should...I asked for an expedited decision, and got an email saying that the decision will be emailed to me *from GSAS* within the next week. Guess I am out. Oh my dream school...

People worry about pressing schools for a quicker response may get backfired should keep in mind that you are only comminicating with the administrative layer, not the higher up that makes this admission decisions. So for example, at NYU you are emailing Melissa and GSAS people who only are conduit to the process. The decisions rest with the program director, faculty.
If your request warrants some merit, they will put your files to be reviewed quicker. They may not.
The point is it does not hurt to comminicate your situation and hope that the programs will accommodate you.

Surprised that there is no new update from NYU.
I still haven't heard from NYU yet... is this normal? It's May already
Hey ..... I am just wondering if there is anyone still waiting for NYU at this point.. or my admission is omitted ...
I called and left few messages and I also emailed them. However, they didn't get back to me at all. I knew that most admission decisions came out couple weeks ago. I am just feeling a little disappointed....

Not sure if you are full-time or part-time, but I was told part-time admissions come out closer to the deadline in August.Hey ..... I am just wondering if there is anyone still waiting for NYU at this point.. or my admission is omitted ...

Still over 20+ pending NYU cases in the Tracker. I don't know why many people haven't heard about their decision yet.

Congrats, you did good.
I see you picked CMU among admits of NYU, Columbia MFE, Cornell FE
Well I had made up my mind to attend CMU MSCF. Now that I have received an admit from NYU MSMF, I am very confused between CMU and NYU

What a dilemma!
What made you so sure about CMU and now you are no longer so certain?
Do you feel comfortable with the info/research you have done about each program?

In my position, I can't make any statement that can be seen as endorsement of one program over another. I can only say that among the NYC-based programs, CMU has a good career services structure that works for them. Things like having regular mock interviews, resume workshop or a dedicated career person is rather basic component of business school but not many MFE programs have it.
Keep in mind the incoming class profile. If they are comprised of 90% students from China/India with no work experience, it will impact your experience in the program in a lot of ways.
These are the people you would spend majority of your next 2 years with so you want to feel comfortable among each other and have great relationships with. These are people who should have you on quick dials if a job opens up. This is your first and most important layer of professional networking contacts.
A lot of programs are similar in what they teach you but these subtle points are what makes one program great and another so-so.
