Right, of course, I'd be lucky to get accepted to any of my top 8 choices (of which columbia is one). But I want to prepare for the possibility that I severely overestimated my chances when applying. I am still interested in starting my MS in the fall of 2016 so I was wondering if there are any deadlines that haven't passed yet
Thanks so much for your kindness! Yes that is what I am asking for, and yes of course I hope someone will admit me soon! But just in case, I'm trying to prepare a shortlist of schools I can apply to immediately after getting rejects.
