^{Asked via email if it's possible for a status update in lieu of the deadlines for offers from other schools. I got the following generic response:}

Thank you for your interest in Columbia Engineering. Please be advised, the application review process may take several weeks or longer and this is normal due to the high number of applications received and the selectivity of the program. The application reviews are also strictly confidential.  We are not privy to the details regarding the status or any other aspect of your application while it's under review. 

 

We appreciate the time and effort you spent in preparing your application and want to assure you that the faculty admissions committee is working very hard to give each application careful attention. We will contact you via email as soon as a decision is entered on your application.

Thanks for sharing this. I am quite anxious these days. Good luck to all of us.

No. Haven't received an interview invitation and probably will be rejected.

If you don't mind my asking, did you get waitlisted with or without an interview. I received an interview invitation and am trying to figure out if everyone is interviewed (or if I'm on the cusp for consideration).

Thanks!

I did the interview. Based on my understanding, an interview is part of the admission process, and most of the people should get one.

Has anyone else applied to University of San Francisco? Does everyone receive an interview invite?

I applied by the priority deadline and got waitlisted.

Does Columbia conduct interviews?

The same question here. Does this program require an interview?
