change of subject, I think my interviewer is such a procrastinator. It's been a week since my interview, and the status hasn't changed.

I presume you sent your interviewer a follow-up thank you email, almost a nudge to submit the review.

I sent him a follow-up right after the interview, and yesterday I sent him one follow-up question regarding some IM recruitment on campus, no nudge to submit the review, since I don't want to sound annoying and impatient. but I hoped that he picked up the signal from me. Today, so far nothing has moved.

CBS has to validate the report too. The ball could be on their side as well.

I am wondering if a 2008 graduate would have some time to spend on GC just to remember how it was :-D

I sent my interviewer a thank you day the next day after my interview and he responded the following day at 1159PM saying that he had sent his report...Next day I received Columbias confirmation.

Now it has been 10 days....Did you guys applied to the Jterm??? Do you know any admissions statistics specifically for the JTERM???

I see a lot of similarities between NYU Stern and CBS. Friends, can you please share your thoughts on the benefits of CBS Vs NYU Stern.(Community, academics, etc etc)

P.S - This discussion is not meant to discuss on the +ve's/-ve's of NYU Stern. I'd just like to share your thoughts on the benefits of CBS w.r.t its peers.

I'd say wait for few more days unless you have any strong reason (like putting a deposit for any other school)

Good Luck - KC

Not rude, but the potential cost seems a lot higher than the potential benefit. I'd keep waiting, as annoying as it is.

agree. how would you benefit from knowing whether he submitted or not? Peace of mind? I imagine that CBS has their own internal deadlines for interviewer submits. If you're worried the interviewer forgot, maybe CBS will nudge them along. I'm sure they are just as eager to close out an application as you are to hear a decision.

It doesn't matter what we think is rude. What matters is what the guy thinks.

lawgonebusiness, I would say to wait a few more days

I mean, even if he turns it in 2 weeks later, you would still be on the timeline to get the decision well before October.

Asking directly may calm you for a minute or two, but I think after five minutes, you will go "Oh, man, I hope I didn't piss him off."

Anxiety plus anxiety = serenity now insanity later

lawgonebusiness, can you please add the following to the first post? It's an important consideration for international students.

https://www4.gsb.columbia.edu/mba/learnm ... tion/loans
International students are only eligible to be considered for private loans with a U.S. cosigner. Loans without a U.S. cosigner are not available. Most international students rely on family funds, personal savings, government or company sponsorships and/or loans secured in their home countries.

Have been a bit depressed for a while after reading about all the IB/Consulting applicants (no offense xD) and their awesome backgrounds, but finally I decided that I would still give it a try on CBS and hopefully submit my application within ED.

Definitely will come back and learn/share more often!!
