There you have it, CMU just gave me their decision. I'm waitlisted for the ME Ph.D. program.
Me too. It seems they sent out the waitlisted results all at once since so many people seem to have been emailed the same thing today.
The wait continues.

I think I may treat myself to a new 13" Laptop so I can stop lugging this behemoth around!
I think I might get a piercing. I'm apprehensive because I'm a guy and I'm worried it will somehow detract from my professional options later. It would just be an ear piercing, though I am looking at an industrial (bar along the top cartilage).
Can anyone weigh in on this?
Not sure what an industrial is, but if it becomes an issue, you can always take it out later, right?

What does the silence mean if you know that the programs already had an open house but they tell you that they're still going through applications? Is this an unofficial waitlist or are they just holding onto a already printed rejection letter?
I don't think so. At least I hope not. I think open house is kind of a preset date, but each department's admission committee works on its own pace/schedule.
Stanford for ex., if I'm not mistaken, has already had their open house, but PhD decisions for my major don't come out till late March/early April, and I checked the results page, no one's got a reply yet. Same with a few other schools.

I haven't heard back from any school I applied to yet (I'm applying for a PhD). Only had one interview with a POI at CMU, and I should hear back an answer on that in a week or so.
I am worried at the silence, but I'm hopeful. Not hearing back might simply mean that they simply have a lot of applications to go through and aren't done yet.

I'll probably continue panicking and add a side of meltdown. Email to ask for a status update.
I'm not so much worried about not hearing back (I know I will eventually) but more about hearing back a resounding "No".

It seems that the Humanities hear back from programs earlier. I've applied to 5 schools and haven't heard back from any yet. Looking at the results page few others have (at least from these same schools).
All I've had was 1 skype interview.
No emails, status updates, or anything yet.
Only good news so far is I just whacked that mosquito that somehow sneaked in my room. It's been taunting me for the last 30 minutes!
