Columbia

Has anyone heard from Columbia since early March? It seems as though they've been pretty silent... Only ones left before I make my decision!

Nope... still waiting and what worries me is they say "they will make decisions no later than late April..." That's too late for most of us.

Exactly, I hope they won't take so long! Do you guys know if in previous years, Columbia had taken so long to send their decisions to applicants?

I have applied through Early review and I've been waitlisted but frankly, given that i've been rejected from HLS yesterday, i am wondering whether it is really useful to wait until late april to get a rejection from CLS.

Hi,
I applied early review but they asked for an extra transcript (of my Erasmus exchange Program) which I could only deliver after the early review deadline.
Therefore I got deferred and am still waiting like you guys...

We're not all French here...

I realized that they knew nothing about our system anyway, so we should worry a bit :).

I have seen many examples that show they don't know much. Especially about the "grandes écoles".

I'm in a similar position: I applied early review but got deferred to regular cycle; haven't heard from them since then.

I talked to a friend who attended Columbia and he was accepted in mid April, but that was 2 years ago, don't know how it should work now. It seems that CLS has a different way to accpet or reject people, looks more like a rolling basis cause I hear all the time people been accpeted, rejected or waitlisted. It looks like we're gonna have to wait, at least until we have another deadline. I can wait until April 15th which is my deadline for NYU.

Btw, I'm not french, I'm form south america.

Tato2010, I am in the same situation as you : my deadline for NYU is on April 15th, so I guess I'll send an email to Columbia on April 1st or so to ask them to expedite their decision... I don't understand their system, they're really playing with our nerves!

well whatever! good luck everyone!

Yes, I actually dont understand their system, because they relase decisions every week! It seems to be like in a rolling basis of some sort. But something is important for all of us waiting to hear from CLS: decisions from HLS were issued yesterday, so some people accepted to CLS and HLS might leave their seats at CLS to take HLS.

In that sense, can somebody please tell us what is the deadline from people admitted to CLS? I think I read it was the 25th. If that's the case, we might see a new wave of decisions next week...

I got accepted to Columbia yesterday! So, I guess, after a silent spell, they are sending out responses again...
