Columbia MFE Columbia MFE Admission Discussion

[KunjanMehta]

Basically, Everyone gets an interview, they send it in the order of your submission date.

Are you sure regarding this?

 

[Riggins]

No it is not true, a friend of mine got accepted last year and he didn't get any interview

 

[VVN]

Is this year's interview earlier than last year's? I checked the tracker and forums, and feel like most people received interview invite in February last year. So I am wondering if it means we will get the decision earlier than last year as well lol?

Some people seem to be receiving Columbia MFE decisions today. I submitted on the deadline day and haven't received an interview yet. Anybody on the same boat?

I have received the invite for the video interview made up of 5 not technical questions... Other people received other types of interviews??

I received an offer today (Feb 11) and the only interview I had (Jan 13) was the one described by @marco di bartolo

 

[quantMSCF]

My interview was 23rd January so maybe there's hope, thanks a lot!

I didn't submit the optional video interview for Columbia, so i probably ruined my chances for it by the time I hit submit... lol

I didn't do that optional interview either since I know someone got in without any interviews.

Will they send out the second wave until next week or there will be more out this week?

I haven't received an email yet but I can see the result on the application portal. There's an "Offer" tab to the right of the application stuffs after you login.

Wait what does it look like? I didn’t see anything like that...

I didn't see it either, but a number of my friends submitted by the deadline have received their offers. So I guess no email / status change probably means a rejection. Lol

It’s just the first day offers have been sent out. Maybe it’s still too early to tell. But thank you!

You mean you didn't receive the offer email, or you didn't take the interview?

You are very welcome. Just to add a bit of detail, one of my friends from my university submitted the application at about the same time as me and even our last names are next to each other when ordered alphabetically.

He got the offer but I didn't.

I don't there would be any ways to interpret it other than taking it as a rejection (or waitlist, hopefully).
