Generally speaking you have a strong profile. Your degree, would that be a first-class honours?

Of course, Columbia prioritizes candidates who have at least one year of post-graduation work experience, so that should be a consideration for you as well.

This might be worth looking at as well, it's the application tracker for the NYU intake last year:

... it should give you a good sense of who got in and who was rejected.
