University of Toronto - Statistics PhD

[blabla]

Anyone that knows when the University of Toronto starts sending out admission/rejection letters?

Wondering the same thing...The SGS page says that most decisions are made in March/April so perhaps a few more weeks? The deadline (Jan 22nd right?) was also later than most other schools I applied to so I'm still cutting Toronto some slack...

What topics are you interested in studying there? I wasn't particularly sure whether to apply or not and can't say that I know as much about the dept. as I do for all the other ones where I applied.

I can't say that I have a specific research topic. Just theoretical statistics and probability to begin with for me...

I see you're also waiting for Columbia and Boston, just like me.

I can tell you though that Columbia is probably out of the picture if you haven't heard from there already... but let's hope the best.

Still nobody with some news from Toronto? Is the glorious April 15 deadline not honored by Canadian universities?

Late last night (European time) I saw that my status had changed to "decision made". However the results are only sent out via mail so that's five or so days before it gets here - I emailed the dept. asking them to reveal my result since I have to respond to non-North American schools before or just when the letter will arrive here. Let's see if they can oblige...

Yeah, same here. I don't quite understand though why they rely so much on postal service. Well, at least a final decision is on its way
