I got my waitlist notice and asked for availability last week, and received the rejection just now.

I have sent emails to the admission for a couple of times, but still got nothing back. I think it is kind of hurting to both applicants and other schools that are waiting for the admitted's responds to their offers

Nothing from UWM as well. They said they will release the result in two weeks last week.

same for me ... nothing from UW and Michigan

got an offer from Davis on a Sunday night...

got a couple of rejections in a day. not hoping too much on other schools

would you attend UCLA's visiting day next month?

got into Purdue today. With TA fellowship.

did not receive rej from UW today as expected. May still have a chance to get in or maybe waitlisted?

just got my first acceptance from UCLA. The long-waiting game ended

waitlist from NCSU. Does anyone have idea about the chances of off-list?

did anyone receive interview request from Yale? Seems like an international applicant got it

Haven't heard anything from NCSU yet... feeling desperate

Thanks. But I'm still worrying about the fierce competition in those top tier schools

Thank you for the suggestion!

Undergraduate Institution: Top 3 Public University in U.S. Majors: Statistics and Applied Mathematics Cumulative GPA: 3.97 (get two A- only in reading and macroecon) Major GPA: 4.00 Student Type: International Asian Male GRE General Test: Quant:170, Verbal: 164, AW: 4.5 GRE Math Subject: plan to take this month (expectation: 85% - 90%) Classes: Statistics: Probability (A+), Statistics (A), Time Series (A+), Linear Model (A), Game Theory (A), Statistical Consulting (A), Grad-Level Statistics (in progress) Mathematics: Linear Algebra & Differential Equations (A+), Discrete (A+), Multivariable Calculus (A), Real Analysis (A), Linear Algebra (A), Complex Analysis (in progress), Numerical Analysis (A), Abstract Algebra (A+), Optimization (A+), Grad-Level Matrix Computation (A), Grad-Level Numerical Analysis (in progress) Research Experience: I worked on computational statistics research project with a professor focusing on ecological data analysis. A year-long project, developed my own R packages regarding linked data validation and generation and expanded the coverage of unit test on existing packages. I am currently working on a statistics research project focusing on social science (topic on women and underrepresented minorities in academia) with stats grad depart chair. Intern Experience: Last summer, I interned at a Wall Street insurance company as an actuarial analyst. I developed a time series prediction model and updated a simulation algorithm to boost the efficiency of actuarial analysis. Also worked on a research project on impact of genetic testing on insurance industry. Research Interests: computational statistics, time series analysis, high dimensional data, prediction model, optimization Teaching Experience: I was a tutor for undergrad level math courses and a grader for upper level stat and math courses for 3 years. Letters of Recommendation: One from my research supervisor (should be strong). One from Stats Depart Chair whom I took a seminar with. One from my math advisor whom I took a grad-level course and got A. Schools planning to apply: Stanford (M.S.), Chicago (M.S.), Duke (PhD), Columbia (PhD), Yale (PhD), NCSU (PhD), Washington (PhD), Michigan (PhD), Wisconsin (PhD), UCLA (PhD), UC Davis (PhD), Purdue (PhD) My Concern: lack of substantial research experience, no publications Any Comments or Recommendations on School List will be appreciated!
