ggnr Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Hello, everyone! I wasn't seeing a specific j-school thread so I decided to make one. I hope we can all help each other through this nerve-wracking time
console_logger Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Applied to the data journalism program myself. Had an interview at the end of January, the wait is driving me crazy! I saw that decisions for the data program have historically been sent out the last week of February or first week of March, so I'm expecting a decision any day now.
doe123 Posted February 25, 2021 Posted February 25, 2021 Had an interview for the documentary track for the MS journalism. They told me that I should expect to hear back about the decision by mid march. I am so nervous checking my inbox every day.
ggnr Posted March 3, 2021 Author Posted March 3, 2021 I really believe that we should expect to hear back about the decision by mid-March. 15th is a Monday, so I think we can expect to hear responses from that date.. I'm soooo nervous! I want to throw up ahhhh I need to know .
anna23 Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Right there with you all! Nervous as can be!!!! Hope decisions come out soon!! tulipflowers 1
tulipflowers Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 The anticipation is killing me I can't focus on anything. I hope we hear back from them soon. anna23 1
ggnr Posted March 5, 2021 Author Posted March 5, 2021 Some people have told me that after they update this page to 2021-22 it's because they are going to send the results! I spend the whole day updating! But apparently, it will only be from the 15th... https://journalism.columbia.edu/new-student-information . anna23 1

lineal Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Also not all MS get interviews. I think it's more likely if you're asking for a specialisation. freakout123 1

I only applied to Columbia and NYU. I got a call from NYU last week giving me my 'unofficial' acceptance which is super exciting!!! But I haven't gotten my official acceptance from them, and have heard nothing from Columbia. It's killing me! I've been refreshing my stupid inbox like 60x a day for the last few days because they send they send out acceptances mid-March.

I'm in Brazil (2 hours ahead of NY time) refreshing my inbox like crazy since the early morning... But to be honest, I'm not sure if we will hear from them today. Idk why, I think maybe on Wednesday! I'm also refreshing the New Student Information page all the time!!!
SRA Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hey, Does any one have info about how many students are admitted for each M.A. concentration? Also, have more students applied for the M.A. program as compared to previous years?

Of course, I got into the M.A. program, Arts & Culture concentration! I saw people above saying decisions would go out when that page was updated, so I checked my e-mail. I didn't have anything and decided on a whim to check the portal. When I got there, it said there was an update to my application and I clicked it and confetti shot everywhere and it was my acceptance!!!
