I agree. I heard Columbia GS had a 10% acceptance rate this year due to the spike in applicants. Columbia College and Columbia SEAS had 60,000 applicants and a 3.7% acceptance rate which is the most selective next to Harvard in the US and lowest in Columbia’s history. Part of the reason also for the low acceptance rates are all of the deferred admissions for students who opted to take a gap year during the pandemic.
submitted on June 15th which was the final date for submission. Still waiting but it’s only been 3 weeks.

Do you happen to have a source for this? I’m curious to know if the school has released an official number.

I think they are just flooded with applications this year. I am still waiting for a decision.
Have a call to the admission staff and they said the school was still processing applications. So they still admits students at current stage. All decisions should be made in the middle of July.

Did they say they were making ALL decisions by mid July?
Most of the decisions come out on Wednesday evenings or Thursdays.
Hello, it is exciting for me to find such a thread in regards to GS! I am a newly admitted student for Fall 2021 eagerly looking for some Wechat/online groups for sharing and discussing issues involved. Besides, I would be more than appreciated, given that email addresses of accepted students could be told.
I suggest joining the Discord server Discord
Hi dalef, much appreciated for replying to me! I will be joining that right now.
Well That’s what I heard from last week. But situation may change.
Sorry, no idea
Decisions mostly come out on Wednesdays 5 pm Eastern. There have been a few outliers to this.
Does Anyone receive his/her decision? Anyone accepted?

It says I am missing an official electronic transcript… it wasn’t there before, I thought we only need an unofficial transcript for the application
