CMU has just closed their waitlist. I have decided to go to UChicago and decline Purdue and UIUC. Best of luck to everyone! It was a stressful period of time, and now I can focus on more constructive activities.

Is Rina Barber moving? I have just met her and nobody mentioned anything. I know Tracy Ke is moving to Harvard.

So for ML go to Michigan? Even though Chicago's reputation is better than Michigan's? Chicago told us during visiting day that 3 senior faculties are coming next fall. How about if my plan is to go to the industry after?

Anyone here has any opinions on Chicago vs Michigan PhD? I would want to do research in machine learning and the city I live in is really important for me. I love both coding and theory.

I am in the same shoes as you. I got accepted to UChicago, but I am kept in the dark by my own department (Michigan).

Now I am waitlisted both from CMU and Columbia. Gonna wait it out.

Yes. Did you get one too? I wonder if they have a visit day.

Unfortunely, it was not me. I don't think they will make me an offer based on their reactions. They mainly asked me about my upper level math and stats class. They were interested if I took a notorious hard grad stats class, which I didn't.

We are on spring break right now.

My interests are in High Dimensional Modeling and Machine Learning.

@NumStats Yesterday afternoon. They said I will hear soon from them.

Had an interview today with Columbia.

Does anyone have any idea if TAMU has released all their decisions? The website mathprograms.org is not really informative.

I got an interview with Purdue too!

I am waiting for them too!

I am a current student at UMich. @NumStatsI haven't emailed them, but I have asked around (unofficially). @jswizzle48 Possibly (until they get enough people who accept their offers). I have been told to be patient and a new wave of offers should come soon. My guess is next week before our spring break.

I heard that Umich has waves of offers in the order of desirability. As soon as other people decline Umich offers, they will send out a new wave of acceptance. This happens, when Stanford & Berkeley release their admissions or when people decide to go to others schools. Don't lose hope. I believe I am waitlisted(?) as well. I hope we all can get in.

I got an interview from UIUC. What kind of questions should I expect?

I do have an offer from UChicago. But besides this, I haven't heard back from any school.
