That’s awesome! I’m glad it worked out with you for NYU :). I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we hear from Columbia tomorrow too
-
That’s good to know, thank you!!
-
I’m a traditional two year applicant and I sent my application in on November 8th!
-
I did (not too helpful though). He responded on Tuesday and told me I would know my decision in the next two weeks. Just keeping my fingers crossed that it's good news!

Congratulations Quinoa96! Those are great schools, I definitely understand why that’d be a tough decision. It’s possible that we’ll hear back earlier, but I think Columbia likes to be the outlier in all of this...just hoping they don’t make us wait too much longer!
-
Hopefully they’re able to do that for you! When I visited NYU and spoke to someone in person, he definitely said they can go as late as April for extensions. If I’m admitted to Columbia though, I’ll probably call the financial aid office and see if aid notifications go out earlier than March since I have to let U.Penn know by March 15th...not really the best planning from admissions committees haha
-
Of course! So NYU gave me a small extension. I ended up calling Columbia to see about my application status. They confirmed decisions will be going out starting February 1st. I was told to email the director if I needed my decision earlier so I could weigh all my options (which I did)...currently waiting for a response to that email
-
That’s exactly why I’m not certain. I know when I called admissions last week to ask about decisions because of deadlines for other schools, they said I could call back at the end of this week to see if I could get my decision earlier. So I don’t know if they’re withholding decisions. Who knows though...
-
I’ve gotten an email about a scholarship, and one about a dual degree...definitely wondering the same thing as you haha
-
I’m sorry to hear that! I spoke to someone in person when I visited the campus and he definitely said that they can give longer extensions if needed. Maybe as we get even closer to that February deadline they’ll be more willing to give you another extension?
-
If you email NYU’s admissions they’ll give you an extension. I needed to get one and I originally was told to let them know by February 1st...but since we probably won’t hear from Columbia by then, they told me I could have until April since it’s still early in the cycle!

Ok, thanks! So close, yet so far
