na3eem Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) hey has anyone heard from Columbia GSas yet. I applied to the political science masters program and they told me that they haven't made any decisions? why would they wait this late? the person I talk to seem like a student and didn't really know what they were talking about. has anybody heard anything?Thanks Edited March 26, 2013 by na3eem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicyartichoke Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I haven't heard anything about my M.A. program either. The few hits I got from a results search suggested I won't hear back until well into April.... I don't understand why they do this either. Their best candidates have probably already made other plans by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
na3eem Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 what a bunch of BS...... its not like they even give $$$ for them to dedicate so much time to it......I have to email the department begging them to expedite a review of my application before April (because thats when my only acceptance. NYU wants a answer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spicyartichoke Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I got accepted with partial scholarship on the 10th. Did you hear back in time for the 15th decision deadline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newyorker Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Nope. They keep saying this: "No decision has been recorded at this time. Most M.A. decisions are made later in the spring and are entirely at the discretion of the faculty committee on admissions. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict or guarantee a date by which a decision will be made regarding your application". This is just frustrating when I've been declining acceptances from other schools and some are coming up short too. So vague when they say later in the spring. April or May or June...?

vcherneky Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I am also waiting on Columbia's answer. I've applied to JHU program and got accepted Early in the year.. in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newyorker Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Congrats on JHU. Its frustrating when other school deadlines for responses are coming up short. I actually had to decline to two schools yesterday... My mind is either UPenn (need to respond in two weeks) or Columbia but at this point, I'm kind of getting sick of waiting for Columbia's sluggish response. I really don't know what I should do.

vcherneky Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I know what you mean... I ve only applied to JHU and Columbia.. now I actually regret it, i dont know why i did that. Im really hoping to get it in.. dont want to end up in baltimore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newyorker Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 If you have some time left until you have to reply JHU of your decision, I would suggest wait and see. Or if the date is nearing, submit the deposit at least first. I'm planning on submitting deposit to one school in mid May to secure my seat while waiting for Columbia. I'll make my final decision based on Columbias outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vcherneky Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I still have time. JHU requires a decision to be made around June. So im guessing I will know by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

na3eem Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Nope, even if I get in, I will decline. This is not acceptable, it is May and not a word yet; and they expect us to pay $100K to go here? yeah right, thanks but no thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
