Fall 2016 Admissions

The wait is over! I got in!!!

Hey! What time did you find out? And how did you find out?

@oddballer Hey! What time did you find out? And how did you find out?

Hey congratulations everyone! Its a great school so you should be proud of yourselves!!

Wondering, what are you all doing about housing? If you applied for university housing have you heard back yet? My portal still says UAH receieved :frowning:

I heard they give priority to internationals and people from far away, so I dont know… Any input would be awesome!

@Tajeli did you also receive a decision yet?

T2016M,

I was accepted June 8th and applied immediately for housing. I’m married so I applied for couples housing. We are moving from Oklahoma City, which I hope is far enough away to give us some priority, but who knows! I really want to avoid the stress of finding a place to rent in NYC, so I understand how you feel.

@maxenvellzen when was your application complete? I finished my application on June 16.

My application for housing? I submitted it immediately upon finding out my acceptance, June 8th…err, 9th. One of those two days.

@maxenvellzen lol no I mean your application for admission.

Oh sorry. I think after I took the GSAE on April 7th my application was considered complete, but I submitted the optional essay a few weeks later (April 21st).

Hey thank you! Its a relief to here Im not the only one worrying! I heard they give out housing in july but they seem to be taking long… I dont know if its because this is GS, but I hope not having it by now isnt a bad sign.

Just wondering, does you UAH portal say that your application has bren received, or did it move further to the review process yet?

@jackcolumbia123 I found out today (July 13th) at 9pm Eastern Time via email. It said my app is updated.

@oddballer Congratulations! It’s encouraging as it shows that hope may just be around the corner. I’m still waiting for the results. Wish I would have such great fortune like you do!

@jackcolumbia123 & @oddballer Hey, yeah got my acceptance letter last night also. Congrats @oddballer, I called yesterday and admissions told me they’d be announcing acceptance letters throughout the next two weeks, hope everyone else gets in.

I got my houing last week. We’re coming from Texas and I applied for housing in May. Hopefully you’ll hear from them soon.

Thank you @KeppGirl12 I applied May 20th, but still no luck… I’m international from eastern europe, and I’m a bit worried that I haven’t heard back yet… Did you apply for couples housing? If you don’t mind me asking, what price ranges were you asking for and by chance did you select the Arbor? I pressed no on the Arbor, and my pricing was from 1150$-1300$. I wonder if that had anything to do with it… worried :frowning:

I did apply for couples housing and got a 2 bedroom right next to Columbia for around $2200 a month. & I selected the highest costs on the application. Theres 3 of us though.

I got my housing as well, I selected no for Arbor, but I still got an apartment on Arbor. I contacted the housing department, they said there are no options at the moment. I really don’t wanna take shuttle bus to school everyday.

@AzamatMD hello! thank you, when did you get it? And how much is it? (also,shared?) The shuttle does sound pretty bad, and I looked at how far away it is… it can be difficult if you need to be at the school and you’re stuck waiting for the bus

@T2016M Hi, I got it on Wednesday. Yes it is shared, around 1100 per month, utilities included. The shuttle takes 20min plus wait every trip and I don’t know if they run on the weekend or not. It is funny cuz I selected no for Arbor but I still got it. My offer expires in 5 days. I still don’t know whether I should take it or not.
