Artifex_Archer Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 5 hours ago, LetMeInPLS said: So I still have not heard back from UCLA and I know that they sent out their acceptances and, as far as I know, they have not sent out their rejections so i assume that I got rejected but does anyone know when they're planning on sending out the rejections and if anyone has gotten waitlisted yet? Usually most schools that delay rejections send them out in early March. I'm not sure that UCLA keeps an 'official' waiting list and notifies applicants that are on it, but you may be on a 'roll-down' list, which adcomms will sometimes use in a similar capacity.

ishi Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I haven't received any communication from Columbia. It seems they send out rejections a couple days after they send acceptance letters. Going to assume my application's been rejected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floof Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 For those that heard back from Columbia, did your status change from the attached image? Curious on what to look for because nothing has changed on my end. I'm assuming that means another rejection. weast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raduan Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 After receiving three positive answers, I finally had the courage to come here and check out the forum. I am in my third cycle and it was nice to got something that is not a polite no. To everyone getting a lot of rejections, I know it is though and I wish the best for the remaining answers and in the next cycle.

One question: There is a perspective of UChicago and UNC dropping more acceptance? Chicago: no. If you haven't heard from them by now you're 99% rejected from the PhD. They take longer to send rejects because they consider admitting and consider funding to their masters programs, so there's a chance you get into one of those instead. weast and raduan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayshay1331 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 hey guys, reposting this here, hope that's okay. I'm an international student and just got admitted to Columbia but there was no mention of financial aid. I was just wondering if this is normal as funding is released later, or whether this means I won't be receiving any funding? I'm on the MA in Human Rights Studies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the MA in Human Rights Studies With PhDs, funding offers can take up to six weeks. MAs vary program to program. Some have aid figured out when they send offers, others suggest you fill out FAFSA or other docs for them to review eligibility for federal loans, some give it a few weeks before they determine where the grants will flow. Fire off a message to the program and ask if funding details will follow or if they have a breakdown of tuition, fees, and costs that you can refer to. You are admitted, so feel free to get as much information as you can to help you make up your mind. raduan and Shayshay1331 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also not too late to send out some applications to CUNY's Marxe School, which is an excellent program, definitely on the up, and more affordable as I understand it. I believe that you can take classes across Columbia the consortium (Princeton, Baruch, etc.) as well. Deadline is March 1. There are other options with rolling deadlines up until late April if the aid is inadequate, though the quicker you jump on these apps, the more favorable your funding offer will be.
