socion Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I just saw that there were three columbia acceptances but am skeptical given the other fake postings this morning. If you received notification from Columbia, I would appreciate it if you post here. If you applied and haven't heard from Columbia, a brief note would also be appreciated.
hoobers Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I'm one of the Columbia admits. It's for real. By the way, anyone heard anything about Duncan Watts? Is he at Yahoo for good?
migrationdude Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 Damn me and my cellphonelesness! Congrats to all those who got in, anyway.
socion Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 Thanks for updating... Congratulations to those who got in.
widefellow Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 No word yet. Anyone knows how many applied and how many they would admit this year? have they sent out rejections yet?
beeswax Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Not sure how many will be admitted but the DGS said they are aiming for a cohort size of 7.
beeswax Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 don't be down!!! One, we have no idea how many acceptances they'll give out to get that cohort size and two, I got a call pretty late into the evening last night and people only started posting results in the early evening so I'm gonna assume that he still has a lot of people left to call.

Which is to say, or what I was trying to say was, I doubt he did all the calls in one sitting.
saphire Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 I have asked the director of graduate studies. He told me they could not offer me a place. 280 applicants and only 14 acceptance (he said normally they could pick 20)
neutiquamerro Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Who received the rejection e-mail? Just curious since I haven't heard a peep from Columbia yet.
readyforachange Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 just curious if anyone here also applied for Soc of Ed in the Teachers College? Any word on PhD from them yet (I've seen masters on the results, but nothing for PhDs)?
socion Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 I am also wondering if the rejection email was received automatically from the admissions system (or if the email was in response to a status update)...
hoobers Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Have any of the other Columbia admits had any contact from the department after the initial call? I haven't received any emails of letters after the call telling me that I was admitted, so I am starting to get a bit weirded out since that was almost a week ago. They said then that the admissions were still pending the Dean's signature... I hope he hasn't decided to, you know, not sign.
