Isnt' Peace and Violence a subsection of the Social Psych program? I got phone interviewed in January in Social Psych, and was rejected around the end of February. Also, I have heard over the forums that several POIs have told prospectives that the budget was really small this year for new students. In fact, I believe I even read that they weren't taking anybody (although I have trouble believing that personally).

If you search around the forums, you might find the posts I'm talking about. I think most of them are in the big Social Psychology topic.

According to the grad secretary the Peace and Violence program is still reviewing apps, and will be taking students. Apparently, although it is a subsection, it has its own admission process.

umass is currently on spring break until 3/22 which could possibly delay notifications.

My status with Umass just changed to 'denied'- I randomly checked the website, there was no notification.
