18coffees Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 I just sent in my tuition deposit for Columbia! So excited and can't wait to meet people! MettaSutta 1
asr13b Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Has anyone appealed their financial aid and had success? How long did it take to hear back from them? MettaSutta 1
Monique11 Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 International student here. I was waitlisted a week ago...super sad. Congrats to those who got accepted! MettaSutta 1

I emailed them immediately to ask when aid will be posted and they said 2 weeks. I have a 2-year-old so a strong aid offer is a deal breaker for me. However, I am so happy to have been a strong enough applicant to earn an acceptance; I have really come to terms with it most likely not being affordable. Hi! Congratulations on your acceptance! I've applied to American and Canadian schools, and as a Canadian cannot justify the costs of Columbia over the Canadian school I have been accepted to! I got my acceptance yesterday, and am waiting for a funding package as well! Best of luck to you

toofunny Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 I just got my admission decision and i have been wait listed! Honestly just happy it wasn't a rejection. Can't believe Columbia even considered me. MettaSutta 1

Can't believe Columbia even considered me. When did you apply? I know how it feels I was waitlisted you UW Seattle. I have had rejections too so yes it’s better?! Where else did you apply. With the high cost of Columbia I’m sure spots will open if it’s your choice to wait and see. MettaSutta 1

I am currently a Gender & Women's Studies major and Philosophy minor at the University of Kentucky. So i applied to the MSW program at UK and should hear by the end of the week. I also applied to UT- Arlington, because my parents live about an hour from there, and got accepted. Columbia is my top choice but it wouldn't kill me to stay at UK. Columbia said they would let me know the final decision by 4/19. More waiting which i hate, but it should be fine either way! MettaSutta 1

UW said it could be all the way into September till they tell you if they have a spot! Good luck! It’s good to know you have a school to go to regardless of the rest!

I was SO surprised...there are other schools I didn't get into that don't have near the reputation that Columbia does for it's program. So I'm a little confused, but I'll take it... toofunny and MettaSutta 2
