I'm also applying to this program and haven't heard back yet. I'll update if I do.

Nothing on my end, guessing interview invites (if they're doing them) will be sometime this week (or next week at the latest) given that last year people had been interviewed over the weekend prior to the 18th of feb.

anyone got anything to pull me out of misery?

 

[tips]

Nothing on my end again :^), even if I don't get an interview I just wanna know- I'll have heard from all the schools I applied to that administer interviews by tomorrow besides for this program, the lack of information available online is truly frustrating

 

[ridedeboat]

Yeah still nothing on my end. Not sure how long this process can drag on as most applicants will surely have accepted an offer by mid-march. I would think we'll get some updates next week at the latest.

Always a (however depressing) chance that none of us got an interview

You would think all things remaining the same, programs with app deadlines close to one another (ex. Columbia MFE (01/05/21) and Columbia MSFE (01/07/21)) would release their first wave of admits close to one another. My Columbia MFE admit came 02/09/21 ... fingers crossed at least one of us hears something today or tomorrow.

I believe the MSFE program said during the information session that they do admissions for this program (which is in CBS) in conjunction with PhD students for the business school, so the timetables are definitely different than the MFE (which is in the Engineering school) and might also be impacted by PhD admissions?

Ahh that's a good point. The "all things remaining the same" assumption is certainly violated.
