moodyfoodie Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Hey guys! I just sent in my application for MS OR 2011 - Columbia. Since I haven't found any discussions for OR Fall 2011, I thought everyone who's applying can just post here?
Uncertain_Me Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 hey..even I did the same right before the death knell . When will the decisions arrive? Which other universities have you applied to?

Which other universities have you applied to? Decisions arrive mid march-end of march I think. Im currently pursuing a Math program at Columbia and have applied to NYU also (FinMath). Did you check the "would you consider MS&E if our committee sees your application fit for that program" in your Columbia app?

Did you check the "would you consider MS&E if our committee sees your application fit for that program" in your Columbia app? yeah! I did that. I had pretty neat GRE...(in fact high)..... and a super SOP( whoever read it said so!) ...decent LORs(I guess). The fix is...I have a GPA around 3.25 overall( I am in a place which is way too frugal with its gradation). However I have great grades in courses like differential equations, financial mathematics, probability and statistics etc. Would I be able to get in one of the super universities in the US? Getting in shouldn't be tough for you. After all, you are from their own backyard Edited February 23, 2011 by Uncertain_Me

Which other schools have you applied to? Its obviously important to have a strong relevant math background which it seems like you do. Did you speak to any professors @ Columbia yet?

Hey I am also from India:P No I haven't spoken to any prof@ Columbia. I heard that it makes you look like a pest. Hence I refrained from it! . I guess one is not required to do that compulsorily @ Columbia, right? Edited February 26, 2011 by Uncertain_Me
