bayer Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 i've just gotten an acceptance email from columbia. good luck everyone! Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k314 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Any indication that it was a mass email or individually sent? the only personalized element is my first name, so it seems likely a bunch could have gone out en masse. it's from the director of graduate studies and specifies that it's an informal offer (i.e. the department has recommended me for admission and once the grad school approves i'll get an official letter by fedex). oh, and it says they're aiming to enroll about 20 students...

fenderpete Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I just got an email from Columbia about some Climate MA briefing but nothing about admission/rejection. They're really toying with my sanity here!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenderpete Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah, me too. That wasn't nice of them. Cue horrific overanalysing of whether that means we're now on some grad mailing list or they're just spamming us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllFiredUp Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Well, this is certainly nerve-wracking. I have just been tipped off that Columbia will be notifying all acceptees in the next few hours. I've got a request for 99 bottles of beer on the wall....anyone?

fenderpete Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Presumably they're being done individually then due to the time lags in between people posting... 17 to go I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
