Sure. Academics wise: two semesters with total of 37 credits taken at a community college with a 4.0 GPA while working full-time as a software engineer.

Congratulations! Did they email you or just send a letter?
Sure! I was a full time student with 3.945 gpa, dean’s list and honors. Also had 3 years of working experience.
To be honest, if you have a good gpa, have some working experience (doesn’t have to be extravagant) that you were passionate about, all that matters is what you write on your essay.
They want to know why you are a non-trad, what you want to achieve at Columbia, why you want to come here etc.
Don’t worry good things are ahead of you! Good luck

Saw the letter upon logging in into the portal
lol still didn’t receive a decision
I think I should also clarify - I applied for part-time studies rather that full-time, I think they might have different assessment policies for part-time admission. Anyways, Congrats everyone! Hoping for next week

I received a short email yesterday from the director of admissions:
… Your application is currently under review and it should come before the admissions committee soon for a vote. …
May I ask if anyone had received anything similar to mine prior to the week where you received the outcome?

It’s pretty quiet here. I just noticed a change on my application. It looks like admissions office wants me to upload official school transcripts. Not sure if that means anything.
Can show of a screenshot of what that would look like? I’ve heard that’s what happens when you’ve been admitted. I’m just curious to see what that looks like as a missing item.
Still no decision here.

From what I have heard, admissions office would ask for official documents only if accepted but no email from them yet. Fingers crossed

I have had that up for several weeks, looks exactly like your screenshot. I called and they said my application was still under review, but the person on the phone seemed a bit confused. Might try another call though, it has been a while. If you get more info on it please let me know here as well!
congrats! that’s what my portal looks like as well. let’s hope for an official letter soon!
