I can confirm UT-Austin has sent at least some waitlist decisions. The email I received was sent March 2, stating I am “rather high” on the waitlist. I’d be interested to know if other waitlist recipients received similar messages.
So far, I am accepted at UC-Davis, Mizzou, and University of Utah, waitlisted at UT-Austin and University of Toronto. I Removed myself from the waitlist for the MA program at UBC (rejected from PhD). I haven’t heard anything from CU-Boulder or UC-Riverside.
I will most likely turn down the offers from Utah and Mizzou by the end of March. I’m hopeful that something might come of my waitlist options, but if not, I am pretty excited about the UC-Davis acceptance.
