I haven't got an official response either. In fact I wrote to GSAS and got no response from them. But I was feeling very anxious about keeping the other schools waiting, especially since I am in regular contact with the POI at those schools. So I wrote to a Prof at Columbia, who informed me that the class had been admitted and was surprised that all the letters have not gone out informing applicants of their status. I have no idea why GSAS hasn't informed me of the results as yet and yes, they did update my GRE and Toefl scores around the 20th of March. But I don't understand what difference my GRE score would have made if I was already rejected from the department? I think they might offer us an M.A, but I cannot be sure and personally it makes no difference to me. Either way, I was really disappointed by the lack of responsibility towards their applicants.

Hey guys, I hate to be the bearer of bad news. But I wrote to a Professor at Columbia and she said that the graduate class has already been admitted and doesn’t know why GSAS hasn’t sent out the letters as yet. Of course, you could still be pleasantly surprised. But I would recommend that you don’t get your hopes up.
