Waitlisted.

It means that you’re good enough but they want to see if they can find someone better.

Bummer. Sorry.

I’ve heard a lot of apprehension from the admissions teams About round two they’ve seen a large influx of applicants in the first round and they don’t know if that’s reflective of the whole season or just everyone decided to apply in round one.... So the volume of round two will play a role but it’s always a bumpy ride with a waitlist. Sorry.

Did everyone get this line in their decision letter while being rejected? I have got this - "Indeed, your profile and stated career goals may be a good fit for our January-entering MBA program (J-Term).

The J-Term, which has the same core curriculum and elective offerings as the August-entry MBA, allows students who do not need a summer internship to achieve their career goals to earn their degree in only 16 months. It’s ideal for students who wish to remain in the same industry after graduation or pursue entrepreneurial interests. "

Thank you for your application to Columbia Business School. Unfortunately, the Admissions Committee is unable to offer you a place in the August-entering MBA Class of 2027.

Please know that we did not reach this decision easily. We appreciate the time and effort you spent preparing your materials and were impressed by your background. Unfortunately, we must turn away many qualified applicants every year.

We wish you success in your future endeavors and thank you again for your interest in Columbia Business School.

Best,

No, I wrote down my interest for a summer internship. So they didn’t say that. I heard J-term is easier to get into.
