Submitted: Dec 14
Received Interview: January 6

I thought I wouldn't hear back until the end of January but the turn around was very quick (especially w/ the holidays).

I got a list of names to schedule interviews with the same day, so here it goes! come on CBS!


Best of luck! I submitted on 12/22 so I'm like a week ahead of you. Hopefully, I'll hear back sometime next week!

I submitted on the 30th, so I have a long waiting period ... :roll:

I just wanted to know, was there a particular font and format we had to upload the essays?
I remember seeing instructions in other school applications, but not in Columbia's?

Can any one please confirm. I do not want to be dinged because of font and spacing :(

Not that I remember. I would say go with the "typical" fonts.
And you will not get dinged becuase of formatting. Don't stress about the little details!

Nevermind just looked it up.

I'm a little late to the party, but I just received my admission from CBS last week!

App submitted RD: 10/14
Interview received: 12/10
Interview on: 1/6
Interview report on: 1/7
Admission decision: 1/8

Best of luck if you are still in the process! Also, I haven't seen many of the admits mention anything about scholarships. I know that the CBS website mentions they are issued on a "rolling basis", but any idea if that means they are issued upon decision notification?

I submitted my application on 1/3 and the waiting is already driving me nuts... I hope I'm closer to the 3-week end of the notification spectrum than the 6-week

Good luck, all!

As i mentioned earlier, I received IV invite on Jan 6, scheduled on Jan 7, and conducted interview on Jan 9 (Fri). Interviewer has yet to submit feedback (side note but I think IV went very well; we spent ~1 hour talking and she said to email her to let her know what ends up happening) . I'm really anxious to find out. I saw many had feedback sent same or next day.

Anyone else have a delayed submission of IV feedback?

Don't stress - I'm certain it has no bearing on your admissions decision. Reasons could range from an especially busy weekend for your interviewer to a system that's painfully slow to update as applications have started piling on the Adcom around the normal R2 deadlines. Sit tight.

So it appears that somewhere in the range of 3-4 weeks is a realistic expectation for first contact. However, it wouldn't surprise me if the response time slows down this time of the year.

Should have submitted my app earlier instead of with my R2 apps...
