You’re lucky. I emailed them three times during the app process and still haven’t heard back once. 

Seriously? I'm sorry to hear that. The first time I emailed them was on the day of the deadline and the second was two weeks after the deadline... Neither was during the process. But still, I'm sorry for you.

Do you think they’re actually going to tell us today or later this week?
 

Every notification I get from my email my heart just jumps thinking it’s a decision 

I believe it will be until Wednesday - which is when will be 10 weeks since the deadline (of those who applied for MA).

I keep refreshing the New Student Information page - because I know that once they update the page to 2021-22, they'll be about to send the emails...

WAIT! I think they’re changing the page right now!

Some parts were already changed...

They need to update:

Class overview
Technology Guide
Orientation & Start Dates
Some parts of the Federal Financial Aid & Journalism Scholarship
Housing
Documents

But doesn't that page reflect students who matriculate? Not those admitted. 

It says "The top states represented among the admitted students..."

But Idk... Students from previous years who said to wait for them to update this "Class overview" before they send the results... Maybe afterwards they will update the data specifying the enrolled...

That makes sense. I know CUNY and Medill already have their class overviews out when they haven’t alerted all of their potential students on their decisions

On the admissions site for the MA it says admissions decisions are sent out in mid-March. But it's already 5:30 in NY so those saying they think we might hear today, unfortunately, I think we won't :( Hopefully tomorrow!

I am officially out of fingernails to chew waiting for this Columbia email 

It is 6 pm in NYC now, maybe tomorrow...

Its the 16th of March and I'm assuming that qualifies for "mid-march"? Any update on the admissions notifications?

Still waiting... :(

To be honest, tomorrow marks 10 weeks since the final deadline for M.A. applications.

10 weeks is usually the longest waiting period for most universities! According to the search for Grad Cafe itself, in 2019, students were notified on 18/19, which was a Monday / Tuesday... this year would be Thursday / Friday... Will we have to wait until Friday?? OMG! :(

Just got an acceptance from CUNY! No mention of any scholarship/funding though, I'm unclear if that info will come later. Very much in shock! 

Congrats!! :)

Congrats!! I took a look at the website and it says that students will receive notification of scholarship info in their admit letter. Bummer!

Hey Guys - for everyone waiting on Columbia: I emailed the admissions office today and they said "We are expecting to release admissions decisions within the next few days." So i doubt decisions will be posted today, or even tomorrow. At least it gives me a break from frantically refreshing my emails lol...

I just got a full ride to CUNY. This is crazy. I thought we would hear back from them later on this week.

I still need a decision from USC and Columbia though.

Do you think maybe the grad students/workers protesting is delaying the results?
