I wanted to create this thread to discuss with others who have been accepted into Columbia GS. In essence, I’d like to glean some insight from others who are currently in the process of accepting or declining their admissions.
Hope to hear from you all soon!
Admitted and accepted. Has anyone received the admissions package in the mail yet though? I haven’t.
Was accepted as well and will be attending in the fall. I didn’t hear anything about a package in the mail but haven’t received anything either way.
I submitted some my materials after the Priority Deadline. Does that mean I’m being considered for the Regular deadline instead?
Sorry not sure on that one. I would imagine so though. I don’t know if they do rolling admissions or if they release everyone at once.
So if you havent been accepted at this point is a rejection pretty much guaranteed? I applied RD…
I’m unsure; however, I know on the website it says that the regular notification date is May 1st, so I guess unless you receive an email noting your rejection, I would probably wait until then to be sure. On the other hand, other schools’ admission deposits are usually due on that date, so it can be tricky to wait it out. But I hope you will be able to know by then!
@PackersLA Agree with above. Try to not make any negative assumptions. I was stressing hard because my application portal did not change like it did for others, and assumed that I had been rejected. When official decisions were released I was accepted. You have no way of knowing anything until you actually receive something concrete.
That’s true. You’re right - thanks!!
Update 04/15/218:
I received my acceptance letter yesterday. I got an email informing me that my application status had been updated. I hope you all found out like I did, or will soon. Good luck, everyone!
Congrats, @pixielated! I was also accepted yesterday!
@pixelated @incogneato when did you submit your applications? I know admissions is rolling
@collegeyogi I submitted everything by 3/1.
@collegeyogi I submitted my application on the early deadline. 
@pixelated no you should not be for regular. As long as you did everything before 20th of March you are good to go.
It is rolling so random acceptance times. My admissions manager confirmed that for me.
Thank you guys for your responses! Has anyone received their financial aid packages yet? Do I have to accept my admissions decision before they can create my package? I was planning on waiting to see what they would offer before making my decision, but I notice on the portal that in order to complete the Enrollment Form, the admissions office has to be informed of my plans to transfer. Any insight, advice, etc. would greatly appreciated! Again, thank you guys for keeping up with this post!
Nevermind! I found out on the website that I can send in my Reply Form after receiving my financial aid. I hope that’s helpful for someone else who is curious!
Nevermind my last comment! I saw on the website that we can turn in our Reply Form after we receive our financial aid package.
Has anyone applied for housing. I just did because a my columbia alum friends said i should ASAP
I also applied for housing since it isn’t guaranteed for GS students. Have you received your financial aid package yet?
