Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[Nick J]

There is a "question" tab on my page....anyone can explain that...

 

[Jedison]

Dunno, I had one as well. It said that I had already submitted an answer

 

[deFEd]

I have a question tab as well. I think that tab shows questions Columbia might have in regards to your application. As long as we see no questions posted, we should be okay.

 

[Andy Xu]

I doubt that the system is clever enough to customize menu tabs for each applicant. An extra tab alone does not mean anything.

 

[Ethan Lim]

I have a question tab too and asked Admissions about it. Will let you guys know what they say about it when I get a reply.

 

[Nick J]

anyone get more from Columbia?

 

[QuantHopeful]

Any update? Did they send out interview invitation in advance last year?

 

[Jedison]

Still haven't heard back regarding scheduling. Guessing my app was processed early because I was applying in-house, though I'm not sure...

That could be a possibility, or maybe it was a glitch/error ? Considering how their deadline has been moved back a week. I'm guessing they'll move back the invitations as well..?

 

[Jedison]

I stopped by IEOR in person to confirm the invite was not an error

what do you mean by the deadline was moved back by a week?

 

[Dataminer]

what do you mean by the deadline was moved back by a week?

After I saw one of the posters here ask about the exact time of the deadline, I got curious and sent an email to IEOR, and they told me that the deadline has been moved to 1/13/14 23:59:59 for MFE. It doesn't say it on their website but that's what they told me./shrug

for the interview tab. i had it come up a couple weeks ago and now it reset and asked me to answer whether i wanted an interview or not

 

[Jedison]

It's probably a glitch, I'm sure the invite wasn't a mistake. They recently performed system maintenance so maybe that had something to do with it. I'd just shoot them an email

 

[deFEd]

I just got an invitation tab on the website and accepted it.

 

[QuantHopeful]

It looks like that interview tab is not just a fluke. Mine doesn't have that tab

 

[Jedison]

Ya I just got an email asking me to confirm for Monday
