Columbia University RD waitlist 2023

Yes I applied for aid and I got the maximum amount (cost - work study & summer savings)

Does anyone have any idea what is going on right now? If they are fulled they should be releasing us by now right?

Perhaps tomorrow?

Was anyone released from the waitlist so far ?

@thebenchhunch nope, I’m thinking either Monday or Tuesday, hopefully they don’t make us wait until Friday?

Why do you think they are going to release people from the waitlist?

Release is the opposite of getting off the waitlist. It means to be officially rejected from the school

@bioenggirl it is pretty late into the waitlist time, to give some reference, people began being released last year around May 22 and the year before around June 2.

Ok thanks!

Hey guys,
I am on the waitlist too. I think it was last year or the year before that the decisions were posted on the 6th of June. I still am quite anxious. Would it harm if I call the admissions office?

Please call and ask them it would mean a lot for all of us waiting for a response

@Khush6402 It definitely wouldn’t harm. People called multiple times last year.

I just called and all they said was “everyone will receive an email by June 30th” so I have a feeling nothing today?

it wouldn’t hurt but they’ll tell u that they can’t give u the decision because it’s still “within their time frame”

Does anyone know someone who wants to major in Architecture at Columbia and is on the waitlist?

I know this question was asked a million times before but did anyone get off the waitlist for Engineering ? I genuinely didn’t come across one on this thread

I really don’t get it… why don’t they admit or release us already? It’s June 7th and I don’t believe there’s that much time left for all the bureaucracy necessary for enrolling.

I just got released from the waitlist.

Same here. Does anyone plan to reapply this year?

I haven’t gotten a status update yet. It says I am still on the waitlist back in March. What is going on??? Why can’t Columbia just hand me the L already?
