Congrats!
So, after talking to guys I can make a conclusion that if you see a status change e-mail after an interview it means you are rejected but if you get a call from unknown number ...
Was interviewed exactly 2 weeks ago, yesterday got the message that an interview report was delivered, still waiting...

Not at all. I mean it seems that we will learn about our admittance via the call not e-mail which is used for negative news only.

Any light on whether Columbia might check on the 'University being Co-signor?'. I had applied for Wharton last year R2 and got dinged. Initially even Wharton had no such loan programs for students. But I got an update, while I was waiting for a response, that Wharton was pleased to annouce loan program for international student.

I really want something similar to happen here. With a difference of getting an admit :-D

Definitely seems like they have slowed their pace of acceptances. A colleague of mine Submitted --> Interview (2weeks)--> Accepted (2 weeks). Was less than a month from submitt to accept and that was only 2 years ago.

Looks like if you submitted in July-August they have emailed for interviews, but not much outside of that.

Congratulations to all of the admits! It is nice to see there is finally movement in the ED pool. Out of curiosity, for the international applicants or those outside of the US, what time of day did you receive your call?

In the education page of the application, we have to enter a GPA. I completed my Undergraduation in India, and my transcript mentions total marks I secured.

The GPA box only accepts x.x format.

Any advice?


@BlueRobin I dont know if this is too late for you. I was in a similar situation. I emailed Adcom and asked them if I could provide the GPA converted using WES. They said I could at least in my case since there was no other go. I strongly recommend you contact the Adcom. They are extremely helpful and prompt too.

cheers!

I submitted my app on 10/1 for ED. Has anyone here submitted their application during the same time frame as mine? When do you expect to see any changes in the status of your app?

I sent 10/2 in the evening. No clue on when I expect to hear back. The dings are worrying (especially of the folks w/super gmats).

Cool! I don't think they will see GMAT score alone as either overly positive or negative. It could be a coincidence. Anyway good luck to you.

I also got an admission from CBS.
CBS said the first deposit of $2000 must be received by the admissions office no later than October XX, 2012. The second deposit of $1000 will be due by December X, 2012.
Was the deposit used be $6000?
And was it paid by twice?

Congrats!! As far as I know the deposit of $6000 is for ED. If you applied in regular decision the amount may not be the same.
