Hi, I'd stared this forum for anyone applying to Columbia - SIPA for Fall 2022.

I also have not heard back. I emailed them and they said that I would be considered with the regular deadline and would get a response in mid-March. I emailed back to ask why, but have not gotten a response from them yet. Really weird behavior on their part.

Hi !

I applied to the Early Action deadline for the MIA but I still have not heard back … They neither reply to emails nor answer phone calls. 

Have you received any news ? They were on holidays last week so I was hoping to get the results today

I also have not received a decision yet for Fall 2022 MIA. I emailed them on Monday and have not gotten a reply. Really confused for what is happening....

I just emailed about thirty minutes ago and got a response that my application was still under review, and I would hear within the next two weeks.

"Thank you very much for your email and continued interest in Columbia SIPA. Your application is still under review. We apologize for the delay and will inform you of our decision within the next two weeks."

I applied for the MPA program Early Action, applying mid-day on November 1. I created this account with a great username to hopefully help give a potential timeline...

Received my decision today for the MPA and got a conditional Admission (with completion of some quant courses).

 

So I received my MPA-DP decision way early (before christmas) and the MPA decision just now. Well— the MPA-DP was my first choice anyway so :)

I received my acceptance for the MPA program today, January 10. However, I never got an email notification (checked spam and every other possible place). They informed me last week I would hear within the next two weeks, so I'd recommend people check their portal instead of waiting for an email. I have no idea what time they posted the announcement, just that I checked around 8:30 PM EST. 

Best of luck to everyone!

I received my acceptance decision for MPA from SIPA yesterday!! The letter says that the funding details will be communicated in a few weeks. However, their website says that it would be in March. So I'm a little confused. If anyone has any information on that, it would be super helpful.

As more decisions are released, there will be a lot of confusion on which university/funding package is better. If anyone wishes to discuss that or other things admissions related, feel free to reach out. Thank you!

Good luck to everyone who is waiting to hear back!

Was the MPA-DP offer also conditional on completion of quant courses? Could you tell how many quant courses you completed? I have taken classes in statistics, econ but not calculus

The MPA-DP was not a conditional admission which was great. I was a humanities major and took zero quant courses during undergrad. However, I did develop some quantitative experience through my subsequent emplyoment. — (on a side note, during the video essay, I got the question “what class are you most looking forward to taking” and in addition to my specific policy area, I also discussed my excitement for further developing my quantitative experience at sipa, understanding that is a real need and weak point in my application)

Does anyone know the acceptance rate for the MIA Program? TIA!

Have not been able to find official stats from SIPA (Some columbia schools post them online, such as the business school), but have heard everything from 20% to 50%.

Hi! I applied by Early Action and was accepted in the MPA - DP. 

We are supposed to hear from financial aid by mid march... I do not think I am going to survive my anxiety ?

Has anybody received any news about that?

Nope, still have not heard anything from them. It's not mid-March yet though! I would expect to hear back by March 20th.
