I was told official email offers will be sent over the next few days. Did you get an official email offer? I haven't seen anyone else update that they heard from them after interviews yet and I'm wondering what's going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have heard of a few rare cases where people have gotten interviews in like March or Apr Every time I email them, they refuse to give me a clear answer, so I'm guessing we could be waitlisted or else why wouldn't they tell us we're rejected?

neurochurro99 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I guess Columbia is really trying to make us all sweat on these admission decisions. I couldn't think of anything else all weekend. ? illfigureitoutlater, PaRvAlBuMiN, mxomatosus and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoothbrain Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I got accepted to both UCSF and University of Washington! It feels like such an immense privilege to have two amazing schools to pick from. After getting rejected without interviews from every program last year (for MD/PhD, but still), I was feeling really down about myself and my chances of ever being accepted anywhere. I decided to cancel my last interview and now I'm just waiting to hear back from Columbia. 4sdch, smol_neuroscientist, lowestprime and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought UCSF interviews (week 1) went ok, but have been doubting that lately for several reasons ?. Won't have to wait too long anymore to find out at least lol.
