There should be an update to your application portal, check it out
yeah mine still looks the same as it did when i originally submitted it so i guess i just have to keep waiting until i hear something
You should’ve received an interview email.
What do you think what type of questions are they gonna ask us in the interview? Does anyone know how many of the applicants who are offered an interview end up getting admitted?
Just had my interview.
Last year they received 250 applications. Out of those, they invited 114 to interview and gave admission offers to 90 of those students. Out of the 90 accepted, 74 enrolled. An impressive yield rate of 82% and a very high acceptance rate for those fortunate enough to be offered an interview.
Can you provide some insight into the interview? What kinds of questions?
The interview was actually a lot more chill than I had personally expected. After talking to some former students I was under the impression that the interview would be more academic based. But the only academic questions I was asked as a philosophy applicant was “when did your love of philosophy start?” and “who is your favorite philosopher?”. I’m assuming this differs based on your intended course, but I would say that it was definitely more geared towards why you would fit the international aspect of the program. I do remember them asking about the core at Columbia. So just be prepared and know what you’re getting yourself into! Best of luck!
Decisions are out, the email got hidden in my promotions!! Good luck everyone!!
You must be referring to Trinity College in Hartford Connecticut. This is Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University School of General Studies.
Do y’all know when decisions will be out?
Friday April 1st seems likely, but they are saying first week of April. With an admitted student day possible as early as Sunday, April 10th I can’t see them waiting much longer than the 1st. Last year they notified students on Friday April 2nd, so the 1st would be inline with past precedent.
In different places, the website specifies April 1st (Financial Aid Timeline | TCD Dual BA Program) and April 2nd (Application Timeline | TCD Dual BA Program) as the decision release date.
could you send the link to me as well?
omg another philosophy applicant. Hi!!!
Hi!!! How was your interview?
my interviewer said by April 1st
actually, now that I’m seeing that Ivy Day is March 31st this year - I wonder if we’ll find out before then? or maybe that day
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing as decisions for the program have always been released before ivy day.
