Stressful time I'd imagine! I'm going to be a wreck next year - this time...
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

Sorry to hear that. Keep your hopes up for the other schools. What is your profile, and what time did you receive the notification? I have yet to hear from Columbia.

Question to those applying or have applied:

Does Columbia require a resume? I did not see it anywhere on the website nor the application page. However, I just want to make sure.


Thanks!

Everyone school I applied to including Columbia required a resume. I doubt you will find a business school that does not require one.

I'm really sorry to hear about all these Columbia rejections!

I'm a 710 GMAT, 3.3 gpa. I had very very solid essays and stellar recommendations from the president and vp of my company, but from what you guys are saying it seems as if i have no chance. I applied in mid February.

Keeping the good vibes alive though. Good luck to everyone else.
