Columbia admission decision

[molt_llest]

Hi,

I applied to Columbia Early round (8th october) and I still have not had any feedback. Is that bad? how much do they spend to interview you if they are interested?

Thanks!

Dear Molt-llest,

I wouldn't be overly concerned about the lack of news from Columbia just yet. It's been just over 5 weeks since you applied and you happened to submit right around the ED deadline (which is typically marked by a flood of applications). In other words, it may take the adcom 6+ weeks to wade through all of the applications they received in early October.

Keep in mind that if/when you get an interview invitation, the process moves VERY quickly, with many candidates getting an admissions result within 1-2 weeks of the interview itself.

Hang in there,

Graham
