Hi! Have anyone received rejection letter? I still haven't heard of anything, but I suppose that means something bad will happen……

A friend of mine just got rejected a few days ago.

 

[blue.]

Yeah. I submitted my application on Feb 26, yet heard any results from them.
I am wondering does this simply mean rejection..

 

[diegosanaz]

Only rejection means rejection. Check out last year's tracker, there were addmits up to June.

 

[panjabi.karan]

Any updates or new admits recently ?

 

[diegosanaz]

Two days ago one guy rejected the admit offer, couple of hours later another guy got an admitted. Last year there was a lot of activity (admits and rejects) from May 31st to June 6th. Let's see what happens. Good luck to you all.

So presumably, they will give out a lot of admits/rejects this coming week?
Fingers crossed

God, this wait is so painful.

 

[diegosanaz]

Tell me about it! I submitted my application almost 200 days ago! Next week I think it will be very active

 

[Bengigi]

I got an offer but I will most likely turn it down.

 

[diegosanaz]

When did you get the offer??

 

[Bengigi]

Yesterday

 

[diegosanaz]

Why will you turn it down? Maybe some of our opinions can help you make a decision

 

[Bengigi]

Because I have already accepted another offer
I really like the Columbia brand name but from what I've been able to gather, this program seems very theoretical without much applications and I don't like their lack of transparency concerning the placement rates.

 

[rock_n_rolla]

Hey Bengigi, congrats on the offer.

May I ask when did you submit your application to the MAFN program, and also where are you going instead?

Thanks mate!

 

[Bengigi]

A longggg time ago lol (beginning of March I think). I will be going to Imperial College (RMFE).

 

[diegosanaz]

Congrats mate

 

[Jian]

Is there any chance to get admitted without GRE?

 

[Jian]

Anybody who ever contact with Dr. Smirnov?
