  1. For those on the CMU Statistics PhD waitlist -- any news yet? Also, has anyone else not heard back from UMich PhD Statistics?
  2. Does anyone know if UW-Madison has an on-campus information day for students accepted to the PhD program in Statistics?
  3. UCLA and NYU are both strong in PDEs. A good starting place would be this list: https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/applied-mathematics-rankings Also, ask the MathematicsGRE forum.
  4. All those rejections from CMU and UW... RIP. 2/9/18 will live in infamy on this forum.
  5. Did the email you received contain any descriptive words that hinted at the size of the waitlist? Or did it just say that you are on the waitlist?
  6. Congratulations on these two acceptances. Both are very good programs. If you want to attain a faculty position, then it is probably in your best interest to go to the highest ranked program that you can get into. Program prestige can be more important than research or advisor when hunting for faculty position. For that reason, UW might be the better option. Also, UW is doing exceptionally strong research in "high-dimensional statistics, statistical computing, nonparametrics, statistical genetics, causal inference, epidemiology," etc. (a rather broad range of interests I might add). So is CMU of course, but don't write UW off because you don't think it fits your research interests.
