Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[DiamondLemon]

I believe this year the admission and the redirect occur at the same time. The ddl for this round's deposit is April 9th. There should still be a round of admissions for the MFE program.

Hope so. I am feeling so depressed now. Many people get their dream offer. But I heard nothing from Chicago, Cornell and Columbia. Some people say that no news is a good news. But... So sad

Keep it up! There is always some chance! I received the offer from Columbia's MathFin yesterday after a nearly 100 days of waiting... I am still waiting for the MFE too

I also have nothing updated from MathFin. Your GPA and GRE are so excellent. So you deserve that admission. Cong!

4/9 is the ddl for deposit of the most recent admits. So, as a still-waiting, I’d make an aggressive guess that there will still be another round of ads next Tuesday and maybe another round around 4/15 as the last round.

Oh, I just received the waitlist. What does that mean? Pretty strange. Do all the non-admitted students get this waitlist email?

Same here... They still worked in midnight...

Same here.

 

[Vinayak Kesarwani]

I am surprised that there was no auto redirection to MSOR.

 

[Trilok Kumar Yadav]

Any ideas about the chances if one is waitlisted ?

 

[John Feng]

Do you guys know where to find the application ID?

Do you guys know where to find the application ID?

Same question here. Searched through the application and emails but didn't find the application ID. Is it in the link of the survey?

 

[Sarat Chandra Akella]

There's an 6-digit AMP ID after logging in to the application. It is visible if you click on your name on the top-right corner.

I got a WL email too. The link given had an ID towards the end 604006. Is this different for everyone, it could be the ID maybe?

Yeah but I'm not sure if the AMP ID is the right application ID. The ID in the email link is the same for everyone I think. At least I got 604006 also.

 

[Sarat Chandra Akella]

So it isn't the one in the link at least. I couldn't find it anywhere else either.

Thank you
Yeah mine shows 604006 too. I am wondering how many people they put on WL though.

 

[Sarat Chandra Akella]

When I downloaded my application, the file name was an 18-digit number. As far as I can see, it is either the AMP ID or the file name of the PDF.

I wrote them an email, and I will try to call them tomorrow if I can find their number tomorrow. Wondering if it is possible for them to direct one from waitlist to MSOR.

 

[Sarat Chandra Akella]

Generally speaking, which applicant did Columbia MFE like better? Someone on the WL for MFE or someone redirected to MSOR? :D

I assume not all people admitted will take their offer. That may give a chance to WL candidates.

Hi, please let you know if you find out what the application number is. Thank you!

Just curious, for those who are put in WL, when asked about interests in other MS program (the last question), which program do you guys choose and why, if any?
