After a debacle of a Princeton interview a few weeks ago, I’m frustrated that none of these Masters programs are going to let anyone know admissions decisions for a few more months. I’d like to know when everyone else thinks (or knows) when decisions are going to be made for real. Here is what I’ve gathered so far based on some of the schools where I’ve applied. Please add, subtract, comment on, or refute any of these:BU: Starting Mid-MarchPrinceton: Starting March 1stNYU: Mid-April…but I’ve also heard Mid-FebruaryColumbia – Math. of Finance: Anytime from late March-July

I know Columbia MAFN starts excepting the most qualified applicants very early. I got my acceptance in mid June. I also heard that there were some acceptances mailed out as late as August. If you haven't recieved a rejection letter, they are just making sure no one better will come along. Oh and from my experience BU sends acceptances through snail mail, and Columbia sends them through E-mail. I know this time last year I wanted all the info I could get. Good Luck Everyone!

Yes, I think I'm going to attend GA Tech and I'm pretty excited about it. And no, I just checked that online thing and they did not update my admissions status. Unfortunately, it seems as though you are going to have to wait for their letter. Sorry I couldn't help you more.
