My application for Columbia still says submitted Gotcha. I didn’t realize that the online program offered scholarships, or I probably would have applied for that instead. Ah, well. You live and you learn.
Kat_MSW2018 Posted March 24, 2018 Posted March 24, 2018 Quick question to admitted Columbia students.! For those who have received their financial packages, do you mind sharing what you received? Specifically for advanced standing applicants. If you don’t mind sharing of course! If you would rather PM me, you are more than welcome to.

I submitted an appeal so we'll see if they'll bump me up at all. NYU offered me 17k.

If I only get 11k I will be highly upset. Have you been working full time or something? Im hoping for the 18k as well. NYU offered the same.

It isn't really fair to base it off that though because when we move I will be unemployed. Our financial situation will be so different! I received a fairly promising email from the dean on Friday who said I'll hear back about a "revised package" this week.

doctormelody Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) A question for those that have been admitted or waitlisted: when a decison has been made, does it still say "Submitted" on the portal?

Chebrutta Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Monday role call? Who’s still waiting and when you applied? Thursday seems to be the day... guessing the committee meets once a week, submits the paperwork, and then we just wait to see what happens!

I feel like people have gotten decisions not on a Thursday before? Now I need to go back and check, lol...
Olivia95 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I have been denied admission. good luck to you all!

YC40 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Hi friends! I was waitlisted. Does anyone have any insight as to how the waitlist process works? Is there a particular 'order' by which applicants are admitted? Thank you to anyone who can provide insight. Good luck to everyone waiting to hear.
doctormelody Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I have a feeling they're running out of spots...
doctormelody Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Hey @KS100 was it an email? Or did you just check the portal? I'm sorry I don't have any info about how their waitlist works, I wish I did because it's probably the best I can hope for, lol. Edited March 26, 2018 by doctormelody

I received an e-mail informing me that my application status was updated. After you click "Submitted" on the portal, the next page indicates you have a decision to click-on. Hope this helped!

Apparently sometimes people don't receive the email until a while after their status updates. Do you mind sharing when you got the email? Sorry to be so annoying!
