Hi,
Seems like first time applicants are required to submit only one recommendation. Was this always the case with Columbia or is it a change in the application?

Hi, is there anyone could start new application for this year's ED Round of the MBA program? From the online application page, only "2021 EMBA New York Friday/Saturday Regular Decision" application is available, is it means that we should still wait several days then this year's ED application will be open? Thanks!

Sometime in November. first they go through j-term & ED and then when that is done they start regular. if you submit now for regular you will be at the top of the pile so you would be one of the first applications they review for RD.
