Same here, but judging from the number of people getting this news, they have a LOT of us on the list.

@DingDong306 Stanford's ME admit day is 4/6. Good luck.

@Golgotha Yep, me too. I applied for MS though. I thought you would've been admitted for sure given your pub record and undergrad at MIT... Are PhD admissions still handled by a committee? It seems like profs should have the final say when it comes to taking students directly into their labs.

^^ Were the emails for Stanford MS or PhD? I applied for MS and haven't heard anything yet... Quite a few of my friends were admitted to the MS program without funding in early Feb. My background is similar to many of theirs, so I hope it'll turn out alright.

I'm still waiting on MIT as well. Did anyone else get in? Based on previous years' results, they send out most acceptances within a span of a few days. The decisions released later in March are almost always rejections...
