@FishNerd, The grad director told me on Wednesday that she was sending out a couple of acceptances that day, I am not sure if that means that all the acceptances are out, but probably they are. In the past, I have seen UMass sending out waitlist emails, in phases after they send out acceptance emails.They have accepted 10 people this year and I know five people, including myself who have already received an acceptance from UMass. Sorry that I could not be the bearer of good news.
Here's hoping that both of you receive good news soon. All the best!
