Has anyone gotten in Columbia ED? If so when did you apply? Most of the mid Aug or earlier applicants should find out by the end of Sept.

Hello!
IS it tough to get into Columbia? I mean as tough as HBS, Standford...etc?

I applied ED to CBS on September 20, 2010. Does anyone know when they will call candidates for interviews?

We've seen a few people accepted this year where the phone call came quite soon after the interview, within +/- one week. (That's about the same as in past years except as you probably know, now it's generally a call instead of just an email.) So, hopefully that phone will be ringing very soon!!
