I didn't  get the offer! 

Ah my bad. Also you should add this data point to the results page here http://thegradcafe.com/survey/

I think they are sending out the decisions for waitlist students.Today morning I got the email. 

How much time did they give you to respond to their offer?

Any updates on NYU DS? Did anyone receive any mails?

Deadline for acceptances was May 13th (just this passing weekend) so it'll probably be a bit longer before they pick people off the wait list.

No, they definitely won't let you refer someone to take your place. That would be incredibly unfair to the rest of the wait list. Class size was 60 last year so should be roughly the same this year. 

I think the wait list isn't ranked because once they have an idea of who is joining they'll try to re-balance based on diversity of candidates. I'm sure there's some clustering of candidates that can help them send the second / nth wave of acceptances.

Came here after the post on NYU Data Science Results page: "Hey waitlisters, let's commiserate together in this thread"

Anybody has any idea about the class size, number of offers made and the size of the waitlist? Is there any realistic chance of acceptance after being waitlisted? It's even more confusing since the waitlist is not ranked.

Also, a few posters asked for being referred by someone declining the admit. Does it really work that way?

basically same reply as everyone else. they're still reviewing the applications so i'm guessing we won't know for a few more weeks

[NYU MS Data Science F17]

Well they've already made a few decisions for the PhD program but none so for Masters from the grad cafe survey. I emailed today asking about the status but it seems to be taking much longer than previous years

[NYU MS Data Science F17]

So it's already late March and browsing through the results it doesn't look like anyone's gotten a notification of acceptance or rejection? Has anyone heard an update yet?

I just called them about this and they said decisions will come out at the latest by Friday

[How to deal with different application deadlines?]

I'm applying to a few schools for Fall 2017 part-time study but saw a wide discrepancy in application deadlines. For example:

• Stanford (Computer Science): 12/6/2016
• NYU (Data Science): 2/4/2017
• Columbia (Statistics): 4/15/2017
• University of Washington (Computer Science PMP): 7/1/2017

Is there even a possibility to compare offers between these three programs or would I have to sacrifice Stanford/NYU if I wanted to wait on acceptance from Columbia (hypothetical scenario)?

How have other applicants dealt with this?
