The best way to email our office COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY - SIPA Admissions Blog (Photo courtesy of TheEmailAdmin.com) The fellowship deadline has past, and we’re working hard on assembling your application materials and reviewing completed applications. We can hardly wait  to welcome the first members of the Class of 2017 to SIPA! Before we can send out that first batch of decision letters, we have to ensure that your applications are complete.  If you recall our recent post about  application statuses, it takes a little legwork to get everyone organized. Thus, weve been receiving a large volume of email inquiries about  submitted applications. To ensure we respond to your message in a timely fashion, were requesting that you  email us with  a subject line that  clearly identifies  the specific component of  your  application that youre inquiring about. For example, instead of sending us a message with  Question or  Application  in the subject line, please  send a message with  My GRE scores  or TOEFL Waiver Request for Reference No. 0555123456. By being  direct with your subject line, youll help us triage your request faster so we can get you a response that much sooner. Additionally, all emails should include your full, legal name and  nine-digit application number. (There are a lot  of Michaels, Jessicas and Yues out there!) And dont forget to review our recent blog posts before emailing or calling us. The Admissions Blog is truly chalk-full of valuable information!  You may find these posts especially helpful: About the application status page Help!
