CMU MSCF CMU MSCF Admission Discussion

[Bryce E]

the results come out in 11 days so I suppose there is still time for them to interview some more candidates

I got my invite for CMU on last Saturday. So I guess they stuill are.

Are the results out? Someone posted a rejection in the application tracker.

Results are not out, and my interviewer was pretty adamant they would not release them early and so everyone should get them on March 10. Maybe the person in the tracker withdrew their applications or something and mis-tagged them in the tracker.

It doesn't help that one of the three entries they put on the tracker have one mismatched GPA (8.74, 8.47, 8.74).

Am assuming it's a reject for me because I didn't get the interview invite.

Same with me, not having much hope for CMU. However, I think I've read some first round applicants in the past got into the wait list by end of the first round, interviewed after that (presumably together with second round applicants), and got admitted. I would say it's not completely 0% until they tell us that we're rejected.

Okay, if we do get waitlisted, by when would we know our final decision? By the time second round results get declared?

Sorry I can't remember exactly, and I don't have the link with me. You can probably try some google search, I'm almost certain that it was also on quantnet.

Edit: found it and it's from 2017, which is relatively recent, COMPARE - Columbia MFE and CMU MSCF like always

Got it. Will look for it.

@QuantQuestion I don't think the results are out yet. They will most likely come out this Thursday or Friday based on history.

Yes that is what I said, they are not out. And they will come out next Tuesday per the CMU website, not this week.

lol my bad tagged wrong person @QuantQuestion . But, I do imagine that they will still release results before the deadline.

They won't, but everyone can believe as they like!

 

[jajoo]

Do they not admit without an interview?

I don't know. But I really hope they do.

 

[jajoo]

Any data based on previous years? Cause they do have our video essays already.
