Hey,
I was told that there are 5 seats per year. Applications are accepted till May(next month) end for the year of 2009...
 
Does it start this year or next year August?
 
it is a 3 years program
they accept very few students and they actually don't have very clear policy about the internationals
they need only part 1
 
Is Columbia's program 3 year? Are u sure?...

So Is it worth 3 yr?
 
I don't know if it is worth it but I am sure that last year (2008) it started as a 3 years program
i haven't browse the Columbia site soon but you can try of course
good luck
 
Hi

Has anyone received any sort of communication from the university regarding the completed application package. Usually, all the universities inform the applicants whether their application was complete or not. I haven't received any such email from Columbia. Has anyone received it ?? please reply!!

Hello,

Is it true, they will make decision based solely up on bench test?
I think they will first invite for an interview then only for bench test.
This course is for 2010 or 2009 ?


Please correct if i am wrong

i am sure u r right,u seem to know more.i am surprised they r done so soon though.31st may was their last date.
 
I sent e-mail and got a message that my application is still being considered and reviewed. Is the interview call is done? reallly?
 
congratulations. wanted to ask. did you have any research experience or work experience? trying to find out what is the criteria
 
and where are the other 9 who got the interview? lol
 
I am the one out of those 9.....

nbde 1-90
toefl 100
gpa 3.45

and some killing experience in dentistry...lol....

..waiting for 23th june...they will inform all the candidates next the interview day...
 
hey what is the average score and GPA for columbia?
 
average score is anything above 87,88....
gpa would be around 3.5.....
 
Guys I have a question why u are invited on diffrent interview day.

On CDM website, they told that they will invite candidate on specific day and perform bench test.

Is this program starting this year? But, La fea said above that it will strat next year.

I'm so confusing !!!

Anyone who knows well answer whatever he knows ..plz..
 
I believe you are asking about what asdf said. he was referring to the result of the interview. interviews are on one day only
 
let me get you corrected on this,

interview is on 22nd june.....only 1 day....

thanks dmddds....
 
hi
any one know in columbia 3yr programme or 2.5yr programme
 
guys, did anyone receive their interview calls recently?? i guess they already contacted the selected ones by 3rd june..they say, my file is still under review..i don't know whether i should keep any hopes or not since the i/v is just in 10 days now..
any feedback is appreciated..thanks..
 
Guys .. Just to clarify everybody's doubts ... The Advanced Standing Program at Columbia is for 3 yrs and not 2.5 years . It begins this August- 2009 and The university is not clear about the number of seats .. They say between 1 and 5. I hope these 3 questions will not be discussed again and again in this thread now !!:highfive:
 
the CDM bulletin of columbia university says that the course is of the duration of 2.5 yrs pending completion of requirements and the course starts in january. but on the site it says for august enrollment. I think i will go with the CDM bulletin.
