I couldn't agree more with Cheme
This wait can't really compare to anything, and it's even worse knowing you're just "under review" for ages, and the time is running out... tick tock, tick tock..

:? I thought I had a strong application, got invited to interview everywhere else... Might have helped if I submitted application earlier since it's rolling..

i had an interview last night and was actually pretty surprised by my experience. it was a conversation the entire time about my resume and what i thought of the OTHER schools that i had applied to and why i liked columbia. not once during the conversation did she ask a standard question like why mba, why now, why columbia, leadership example, etc. all that preparing for nothing but i think it went well.

i had seen from doing a little research that most interviews were pretty similar but this one was very different than the ones that i had read about... now the waiting begins.

does anyone know if columbia will send out an acceptance before the deadline or do they only send it out on the deadline date, which i believe is somewhere in the middle of april?

I was about to ask whether AdCom went on Spring Break or not...not that it would change something at all, I've refreshed my e-mail the usual hundred times today :lol:

Congrats for the admit!

Hi everyone,

I've recently found this thread, driven by the insanity of waiting to hear back from Columbia. Thought i'd drop my stats. It's comforting to know i'm not the only one out there!

F/25/690/3.9

Submitted: 1/6
Print & Review: 1/10
Interview: 2/18
Interview Complete: 2/22
Waiting to hear back... :wink:
