From the threads last year, it seems that interview invites for J-term started going out late june/early July, and decisions were out pretty soon after that (starting in mid to late July). For ED, interviews started early August, and the first admits were notified the week after Labor Day (this week!)...

So if that time frame between j-term and ED is maintained, we're two months behind schedule. I mean, granted not everyone checks or posts on these boards, so it's not a representative sample of what's actually going on, but you'd think at least one of us here who submitted early would have heard something. If we don't hear back until after all ED apps are in, that'd be crazy...

Got the interview invite this morning. J-term applicant, submitted 7/25. It looks like they're working through the J-termers first.

I was hoping having 4 years of IBM on my resume would help considering they are one of the schools biggest benefactors.....guess not!

dinged today also. for ED, submitted on 07/28. GRE 156(69%)/170(99%) and GPA 3.5. probably because of my low GRE verbal score. But personally, I do think I've got shining points from my work experience. Have worked in diplomacy for five years, in Iraq, Dubai and South Sudan respectively, set my post-MBA goal as social enterprise. A little disappointed.

It seems like school started sending admissions for the J-term. There is a facebook group called Columbia Business School Class of 2014 (J-term) and there are already ~30 people...
