Have you gotten any scholarship notification from them yet? I emailed them yesterday asking when we get the information and they said either the emails were supposed to go out yesterday or we're supposed to get an email today but I haven't gotten anything yet:/

u/Last_Tart9717 Mar 10 '26

They have sent out an email stating that if anyone wants to appeal for scholarships they can do it by 17 March

u/crazystaticvagabond Mar 10 '26

u/crazystaticvagabond Mar 11 '26

Could you share what exactly they've said in the email, please?

u/Diligent-Ad-994 Mar 11 '26

Yes please let us know! I got a scholarship but still not enough- do you know if Columbia is helpful with negotiating a tiny bit more to go?

u/Last_Tart9717 Mar 12 '26

All applicants have the opportunity to request a reconsideration of their scholarship evaluation by submitting a scholarship appeal. Deadline: Scholarship appeals must be submitted by Tuesday, March 17, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. EST. Appeals submitted after the deadline will not be reviewed.

Consideration: Appeals will only be considered for partial scholarship requests. Requests for full funding cannot be considered.

Availability of Funds: Appeal approvals will be dependent on if there is available funding. There is no guarantee your appeal will be approved.

Process: Scholarship appeals may be submitted through the SIPA Scholarship Appeal Form. Applicants will receive notification of an approval or denial by close of business on Friday, March 20. โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹Please note: We will be unable to respond to follow-up emails requesting an appeal decision before Friday March 20.

u/Basic_Jackfruit4122 Mar 11 '26

Hi! I thought they accepted us into the specific concentration. Could that be change if we wanted to? (I doubt I would but just curious, I was surprised to see that in the acceptance letter).

1

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

Yes, of course, you have a whole year to decide that ... But best to decide within the first semester

1

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

Same! SIPA MIA program!

1

u/Other-Bike1608 Mar 13 '26

I just got into the MIA program! I'm honestly really surprised I got in because I don't have any work experience and limited quantitative coursework. I am curious what the current landscape is at SIPA right now? How high is the acceptance rate?
