I contacted "Blankenship, Jennifer N." <Jennifer@caltech.edu". She was quite nice actually. I first contacted her about 20 days ago when she said that the department would send out decisions in two weeks. Afterwards, upon not receiving a decision I contacted her again and she told me that I was wait-listed. Where else have you gotten replies from? 

Thank you so much!! I am going to contact her as well. Do you think that everyone who hasn't heard back is on the waitlist? 

I have heard back with acceptances from Northwestern and Illinois, rejection from MIT, and waitlist from Oxford . I have also been accepted to Michigan but that is in chemical engineering .

How about you?

Anyone here got admitted to Caltech? Didn't see any acceptance entries. I contacted the department and found out that I was wait-listed. Any idea when I might hear about a final decision? 

I also have not received an answer. Thanks so much for sharing. I saw an acceptance a long while back but several rejections in the last week. I am also interested in contacting the department--if you wouldn't mind, who did you contact and what did you say/ did they sound amenable to be contacted? I hope such a thing would not offend

Northwestern (I believe they send out most of theirs in one or two waves), UMich has sent out some but I believe they will keep sending. Those are the only two I feel I can speak for. Which one's are you waiting on?

Nope, not yet. I have applied to Austin, Michigan, Cornell, Georgia Tech, Yale (Safe school). 

I thought I had a pretty strong profile, as it turns out it might not be as strong! Will wait for the results or else I am ready to take up RAship.

I feel that it's still so early. Especially get the feeling that MSE is slow with sending out results.. Wishing you the best of luck!

There really are not that many MSE entries..are people hearing back?

I appreciate this topic.

I heard from U-Mich Ann Arbor with acceptance and funding. Heard they generally don't release most acceptances till much later though, like February. No word from others
