Rejected at Columbia

Round: Round 2

Received via email October 10, 2024

EA: 164

Program Type: January Intake

Target Career: Healthcare

Application Location: Taiwan

Note:

Interview 14-Sep-2024; result 9-Oct-2024.
My takeaway is: don't trust the school. They admit whoever they want and don't value many qualified and hardworking candidates. The process is a sham. Anyway, I don't want to have anything to do with this school again. Expensive and useless.

rcheng2023 Likes Earned: 3 Thanks you guys! My idea here is if GPA or age is their real concern, just don't "further evaluate" or "interview" people upfront so candidates like me don't need to waste time visiting the campus or connecting to more alumni, to crack the disrespectful blackbox selection process. For those of you are a good fit of the school, please go ahead; but for those of you who are not carrying the right image the school wants, just don't waste time playing the admission game; instead of kissing their ass you should be looking for schools that are much less expensive but still able to get what you want out of an MBA experience. Good luck bro! (0)
