Hey,I havent received any interview mail yet and my status was pending.. My last year's application was re-activated. I was offered MSOR last year but did not accept it.. I'm anxious after the discussion... any guys managed to make it through wihtout the interview??
Did you indicate that Columbia was your first choice for graduate school? I can't see why they would ask you for a 5 minute interview that didn't really discuss anything specific if they didn't plan on admitting you. However, if you said some other university was your first choice then they may be having second thoughts about your application.
Just wait I guess they seem to be pretty messed up this timeI said that Columbia is my first choice even though I have applied three other programs. I am really confused.
What is weird that the interviewer keep saying fantastic. And I think this means she is satisfied with my answer.
It make me really upset these days.
20 admits have been posted in the tracker this year, while there are 11 records of admits for last year. (Of course, more candicates are using the tracker.) Honestly, for the "pending" applicants, including me, the chance of being admitted is really slim.
So frustrasted. Waiting for the email asking me to be considered for MSOR...
Last year: 22 cases and 11 got accepted (50%)
This year: 46 cases and 19 got accepted (41%)
hahaha, I guess there is room for a few more to make it 50%.
Also, will you accept the offer from MSOR ?
For some reason, the program doesn't look very attractive in comparison with the MFEHi, Roni! Actually, I haven't received any emails regarding MSOR. I am just not that optimistic about my chance @ FE.
If I am offered admision to MSOR, I think I will accept it. After all, it's Columbia!
Oliver, did Columbia offer you an interview?
For some reason, the program doesn't look very attractive in comparison with the MFE![]()
I guess you are right... but lets hope they will be sending interview invitations in the next two days.That is why MSOR accepts applicants who fail to make it to MFE. Anyway, Columbia's big name, its location in the world's financial hub, the finance-oriented curriculum make it a good back-up.
I guess you are right... but lets hope they will be sending interview invitations in the next two days.
Thanks, good luck to you, too!Yeah, before an official decision is made, any outcome is possible! Good luck!
