How many are still waiting for the J-term decision - interview or final?

I don't understand Columbia's rolling admissions system now. I thought it meant that everyone who applied earlier would be given some sort of feedback (interview/ding) before those who applied later are considered. But clearly that is not what Columbia is doing. There are folks who applied on Oct 3 and have got interview invites, and there are others who applied in the last week of Sep and are still waiting to hear. If someone applies earlier, and AdCom sits on their application in order to see how the rest of the applicants are, before they take a decision on the earlier applicant, I think it totally beats the purpose of ED. They could just call it a R1 and ask everybody to submit by a certain date and start evaluating applicants after everbody's got their file in.

It looks to me that these invites to those who submitted on October 2/3 have been given by the first person reviewing their applications- I guess an invite can be sent out by any of the committee members reviewing the applications. This also makes sense as the adcom then has the opportunity to look at the entire applicant pool. This could also mean that these specific people who have received invites are likely those with stronger profiles.
