Email adcom to check the progress, get reply with an unofficial congratulation, pending for funding.

Graduated summa cum laude from top public uni. Strong GRE. Approximately 1.5 years of post-grad work in financial sector-oriented consulting and 7 months of post-grad nonprofit work. During undergrad, I held research assistant positions, internships with government agencies, NGOs, and financial institutions, and leadership positions within on-campus student organizations such as student government.

email to check portal. bit bummed I didn't get any funding, but mostly just excited that I got in!

Received an $80,500 scholarship going to both years. I can't believe it......

Accepted but no funding. Unfortunately, this makes attending impossible.

Not going. Received offer from Indiana University which is much higher ranked than Columbia and with 100% scholarship. NY is expensive and job placement at Indiana is better than for Columbia surprisingly.

Straight out from undergrad, relevant internships, 4 languages, long-term abroad experiences in US and Africa

Applied early for the MPA-DP and was notified well-before they had said they'd publish decisions. They haven't shared financial support yet, though.

First rejection, was a long shot. 1yr of professional experience, speak 3 languages, weak quant scores. Now I can start applying to other programs.

Kind of surprised, kind of not. I have mostly unrelated work experience, but I thought my academic record and volunteer experience might save me.

5 years full time working experience

50% funding for MIA in Human Rights. To the poster below who wants to check for funding: There should be a hyperlink at the bottom of the letter that says "The following letters are available for this account," and funding will listed!

No funding. Let's see what I can do about this.
