I could be wrong, but I think the admits have been for the MA in mathematics of finance, not the MFE program.

My current status is still visible. Is this any indication?

I saw this forum and I went to check my portal and I got my decision! No email or nothing!

 

[Csp]

Me too!

Hi there, I just noticed that my current status section disappeared as well. May I kindly ask how you found that final decision? Thanks!

I noticed the status section had disappeared around 17 pm CET and after the message by @efffff I logged into the portal and got the result

Thanks! I’ll just keep waiting then, not sure if the decisions release on weekends.

Hello, I saw the same thing on Saturday night!

Got my result just now

 

[efffff]

I only see acceptances this early. Do they release only acceptances or do people not update with rejections?

 

[chickenguy]

I am sure there is a bias toward acceptances being reported. I don't know the answer though

 

[chickenguy]

I saw last year people were getting rejections in August, and people were pretty annoyed by it, understandably. Maybe they just don't bother notifying of rejections right away. The deadline to take the offer is a bit ridiculous, I only have two weeks to decide

Does anybody know if Columbia MFE has any summer requirements for admitted students, or if the typical student looks for an internship the summer before the first year.
