Glenn Hubbard on MBA Rankings Columbia’s Dean Glenn Hubbard on MBA Rankings - Dean's thoughts on MBA Rankings CBS Decision Procedure Mr.Matthew Moll, Associate Director(CBS) " Our goal is either to deny admission or invite for an interview or within six weeks of a completed application being received. Our goal for interviewed applicants is to render a final decision within two weeks of the interview report being completed. It is our goal that all reviews are within these timelines. I suggest that candidates reach out to us if their application is outside of the six week timeline, but before doing so they should check their application status page for their complete date . Regarding the interview, it is two weeks from when the interviewer has submitted the interview feedback, not the date of the interview, so applicants should keep that in mind as well. " Mr.Matthew Moll, Associate Director(CBS) " We will start reviewing Regular Decision applications once we complete the review of Early Decision. This usually happens in early December. Regular Decision applications that are submitted prior to the start of our review of Regular Decision will be placed in a queue and reviewed on a rolling basis once we start reviewing RD applications. Additionally, candidates who submit prior to the start of our review of RD will receive notification that their six week review process has begun .We will send an e-mail to candidates who have already submitted and are in a queue who are 'waiting' for their process to begin " Mr.Matthew Moll, Associate Director(CBS) " Need based scholarships are awarded by financial aid and will be awarded later in the cycle after admission. Merit based fellowships are managed by admissions and usually are not awarded at admissions. If you were admitted and did not hear about these awards keep in mind they usually happen later in the cycle!

Any specific area of focus in the interview? Also how long is the interview generally? Just trying to gauge what to expect as it would be my first interview. Thanks in advance

How's the timeline looking for those of you applying ED lately? I'm hoping to have mine in by this weekend and I'm wondering if I'll know anything prior up some of the early October deadlines.

Update... Submitted 7/15 Invited to Interview 8/6 Interviewed 8/18 Feedback 8/20 Acceptance 8/25 So excited!

Congrats!!!!! I'm submitting my app as soon as I get my essays back from review.

Very casual, 1 hour total. Just chatted about life and what I wanted to do but I made sure to talk about how much I wanted a Columbia MBA, not just a regular MBA.

Hey bro, any update your side? I submitted 8/05, nothing till now...

Same here... still haven't heard back

Lurker190 , MBOUTDAT , do you mind sharing your profile (whatever you want to mention) for bringing everyone upto speed as to what kind of profiles are getting accepted by Columbia. To all the admitted students for Fall 2016, please post something about your profiles so that applicants such as me who still have to submit the applications, learn about the application process. Details can include: Your pre-MBA employement, how long etc Your education , GMAT, GPA etc. Post MBA goals (if you are comfortable) Did you hire admission consultant (if yes, a sentence or two about your experience or the link to your consultant review if you have posted one on GMATCLUB). Thanks
