BluRoze Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 Has anyone heard back from Columbia University?
applyingwaitingstressing Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 i think they usually dont let people know til mid to late march... Has anyone heard back from Columbia University?
papayadance Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 i think they usually dont let people know til mid to late march... Yeah, I haven't heard a single thing..... which is super-stressful since friends in other fields (Poli Sci, English) HAVE heard already. Anthro depts, get your shit together. Thx.
socioanthro Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 The graduate admissions person there said that they are still deliberating and that both acceptances and denials will be notified in another 2 weeks.
papayadance Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 The graduate admissions person there said that they are still deliberating and that both acceptances and denials will be notified in another 2 weeks. Awesome. It seems like EVERYTHING will be decided in 2 weeks. Ahhhh.
applyingwaitingstressing Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 anyone have any new updates on this front? it's my last school to hear from and then this whole process is over!! which will be very nice. Awesome. It seems like EVERYTHING will be decided in 2 weeks. Ahhhh.
foxes Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Nope: silence on all fronts. Vague email replies. Nothing exprimes more ambiguity than "in a few weeks". The more places I'll get into, the more I will reject. I want to be on the decision-making side soon. So come on Columbia, you can do it. Quick. Edited March 1, 2010 by foxes
Anthro14 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 anyone apply to the Anthropology & Education PhD through Columbia's Teachers College (Transcultural studies)? Any news on them yet?
applyingwaitingstressing Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 does anyone else feel like every department at Columbia has sent out their decisions sans anthro? Come on Columbia, take us all!
LosingGrip Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 From the results board it looks like every other department has opened the floodgates of rejection. I'm not sure Columbia is admitting anyone to anything this year...
CultureOfIdeas Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 i heard through the grapevine Columbia is having a rough year and are taking very few students relative to the large number of faculty. At a school that is already dealing with some political camps issues, sounds like there's probably some fighting over whose favorites are getting in
pangmao Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I see someone has just posted an unofficial acceptance to Columbia. Lo, the day of judgment has arrived for the rest of us ~~~~~
applyingwaitingstressing Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 damn... oh well... end of the road i suppose. I see someone has just posted an unofficial acceptance to Columbia. Lo, the day of judgment has arrived for the rest of us ~~~~~
anthropo2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Could the person that has been unofficially admitted to Columbia tell us more about the whole thing? thanks!!
applyingwaitingstressing Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 has anyone gotten more scoop on columbia? if we didn't hear this weekend... are we out? any tidbits appreciated! gracias amigos. Could the person that has been unofficially admitted to Columbia tell us more about the whole thing? thanks!!
foxes Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Bof. They wait until EVERYONE ELSE has given replies, they admit "unofficially", rumors circulate about intra-faculty conflict, hardly reply to email (mine at least)... Sure we really want to hear back? I am really annoyed with the department now. ... The "fox and the grape" story.

And... many congratulations to the mysterious admitted poster!

LosingGrip Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Ditto Papaya. I shamed myself by calling yesterday. They said mid-march. Nice. A little broken hearted that I haven't heard from cuny either. jeeesus i am going crazy. i need some acceptances or glimmers of hope...ughhhhh Edited March 10, 2010 by LosingGrip
samjones Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 Ditto Papaya. I shamed myself by calling yesterday. They said mid-march. Nice. A little broken hearted that I haven't heard from cuny either. don't give up just yet on CUNY. i got an email the other night asking when i might be available to talk on the phone about my application. and am hoping to talk with an ad comm member sometime today! i don't know for sure that they will be telling me that i've been accepted but the wording of the email belies that i just might... i'm hoping they wouldn't get my hopes up over a call that actually informs me that i'm waitlisted. ugh. i say that to say it seems that the contact info for accepted students was distributed among multiple faculty who have gotten around to contacting folks when they get around to it? the last few days have shown me that it ain't over until you actually have a rejection letter in front of your face. good luck!
LosingGrip Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 That's great news and encouraging! Keep us posted and fish for info if necessary don't give up just yet on CUNY. i got an email the other night asking when i might be available to talk on the phone about my application. and am hoping to talk with an ad comm member sometime today! i don't know for sure that they will be telling me that i've been accepted but the wording of the email belies that i just might... i'm hoping they wouldn't get my hopes up over a call that actually informs me that i'm waitlisted. ugh. i say that to say it seems that the contact info for accepted students was distributed among multiple faculty who have gotten around to contacting folks when they get around to it? the last few days have shown me that it ain't over until you actually have a rejection letter in front of your face. good luck!
