Reject me already! I can not stand the silence.

Based on your profile, I guess that you are asking because you are waiting for CalTech decision. From what I've heard and seen, they release their decisions really late (Early-Mid March), so I wouldn't worry if you didn't hear back yet.

I would advise against this. I have heard that people who inquire about their status are often rejected immediately, rather than remaining on a waitlist.

I can't figure out how to edit this; if it's possible someone please tell me how and I'll delete this post.
I got ACCEPTED (woo) to work with a computational mat sci professor. I didn't list him on my SoP, but we did have a skype conversation a few weeks ago that went quite well.

To wager a guess, you wouldn't get anything significant back from filing tax returns. But there may be different considerations for graduate stipends, so I definitely agree with @AntiSpinel that these are perfect questions for visit weekends.

Would be a great question to ask during your visit weekends - stipends, tax filing, cost of living

I don’t know with Berkeley in particular, but I would let them know that you can’t make it to the visitation. Maybe with that, you can learn more about Berkeley by talking with professors and current grad student on the phone or on Skype. But I would definitely let them know that you wish you could go, but have other plans already. However, you would still really love to learn more about the program. Good luck, and congrats on all your acceptances!

I haven't either. Maybe they are doing it by discipline and haven't gotten to physical yet? It does seem weird though, since they've sent out so many rejections too. At this point, if I end up not getting in, I'd rather just know...

I'm not sure about specialty-specific admissions, but the emails I got (I applied Physical) said official GSAS notifications would be going out Friday (tomorrow), and visiting weekend invites would come next week.

Someone on gradcafe compiled all results submissions from last year, so maybe this can help! https://fretpwner.shinyapps.io/GradCafeStatistics/

Congrats on the acceptance! Here's hoping they're not done sending them, haha.
I don't know if they've sent any, but I do have a friend who is still waiting on a decision from them, so hopefully both of you will hear from them soon!
Any chance that anyone has heard about Princeton or Stanford?
