[quantnoob]

They changed " few decisions made" ( status at march starting) to "most decisions made" without actually giving any admits .

That cracked me up

Ya I saw that. Idk why they’re waiting until mid April or later to just send out rejects lol

haha, love the optimism. I think a few more folks might get in.

Actually, I was on the waitlist and this morning, a woman named Carmen asked me if I was still interested in the MFE, so maybe there's still hope

This may be because after many people who defer last year decide to accept the offer and come this year in April, they close to meet their target.

Please has any body heard from the admission committee? The wait is really excruciating!

Congratulations. Still waiting for a decision on my application.

Rejected. Just received the mail

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Sorry about that bro. This makes me feel nervous since I have not received any communication from the admission committee.

Anyone in Columbia's MSCS program? I was thinking about applying to the MFE but I decided against it because if I fail to get a quant job, I'd rather be a ML engineer than a non-quantitative Wall Street guy.
