Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[vicc]

This is killing me. I'm in Columbia and applied via MS Express way back in November. Now I'm watching other people getting admitted first lol. Would be a great story to be like one of the only people rejected from MS express

I also applied through MS express, still waiting for the results……

whats ms express?

The MS Express program affords highly qualified undergraduate applicants from SEAS, Columbia College, Barnard, and General Studies the opportunity to apply to any MS program in engineering at SEAS and matriculate in the semester immediately following their graduation. Interested eligible alumni of these schools may also apply within three years of graduation.

Do they process the applications for those who submitted test scores first?

Yeah I didn’t realize that the deadline for MS express was Feb. 15, which means it was after the first round of admits. They didn’t even look at ours yet until this coming round, so I wouldn’t be too worried

Should we be expecting some results today given the first batch came out on a Monday as well? :/

It seems that the first batch came out on Tuesday Feb.13

However, Columbia MAFN's only first batch came out on Monday Feb.19. But the website says it sends out decisions on rolling basis.

Perhaps, the second batch will be tomorrow (hopefully)

I remembered that (maybe) Columbia MFE gave them 2 weeks to pay the deposit.

2 weeks are done, according to last year's pattern we should have gotten 2nd round admits on 27th - 28th Feb

Is there a chance that they will release the second batch today?


However, I saw that last year, someone got the offer at the end of April.

Additionally, it seems that not everyone has the "Current Status" under the "Application Details". What does the status mean?

Someone claims that they have "Current Status" but have not received decisions for a long time.

Anyone got the decision without the "Current Status"?

I just checked, I have the current status now, it’s showing the following

Current Status​

Your application has been moved to review with the Faculty Committee. The Office of Graduate Admissions cannot give you an estimate on when you will receive your admission decision, but we want you to know that your application will receive careful consideration by the Faculty Committee. Decisions will be made on an ongoing basis and you will be notified via email when a decision has been made.

In the meantime, please continue to keep an eye on your application checklist. Any outstanding materials will be indicated with an "X".

Hi. Do you know approximately when that heading showed up?

 

[mariosniper]

I believe it was within the past 3 hours, wasn’t there 3 hours ago

 

[ShreyanshL]

Did anyone hear back today?

 

[nonomysquant]

Did anyone hear back today?

Nope.

 

[wheresmyoffer]

I don’t think so

 

[nisha]

I have the same heading from more than a week

 

[WSBquant]

Did anyone hear back today?

nope too… I recalled they have a page with the status on offers sent, it’s not out so maybe it’s still in early stage?

 

[smithquant]

Has anyone received the Current Status and been denied?

 

[threesixtyquickscope]

Just checked my portal this morning, and I am now seeing the "Current Status" header.. Hopefully they release the 2nd batch of decisions soon
