I received my acceptance for the MPA program today, January 10. However, I never got an email notification (checked spam and every other possible place). They informed me last week I would hear within the next two weeks, so I'd recommend people check their portal instead of waiting for an email. I have no idea what time they posted the announcement, just that I checked around 8:30 PM EST.
Best of luck to everyone!
I just emailed about thirty minutes ago and got a response that my application was still under review, and I would hear within the next two weeks.
"Thank you very much for your email and continued interest in Columbia SIPA. Your application is still under review. We apologize for the delay and will inform you of our decision within the next two weeks."
I applied for the MPA program Early Action, applying mid-day on November 1. I created this account with a great username to hopefully help give a potential timeline...
