Geococcyx Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 I see that some folks reported getting waitlisted by Carnegie Mellon yesterday and today. It looks like waitlists and acceptances came out at roughly the same time last year (and fairly similarly in 2017), so it'll be interesting to see if any of our forum superstars get accepted today. Congratulations to everyone who gets in, congratulations to those waitlisted too (with a special extra allocation of luck)! data_scrub and cyberwolf 2

Geococcyx Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 @Monte Carlo Based on their signature, Ph.D. (unfortunately, I'm not sure how one would turn on signatures on mobile devices, short of just switching to desktop version)

theduckster Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 Rejected by Yale for MA Statistics. @ducky500 hopefully you have better luck!!
ducky500 Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 @theduckster unfortunately, rejected as well.
galois Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 So... it's definitely too early to ask about the status of an application, right? Even if we see that a school has already sent out a few rounds of accepts & rejects?
Geococcyx Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 @galois Which school are you hoping to ask about? For instance, Duke's visit day is 2 weeks from Friday, so if you wanted to know if you should think about keeping that time period open in case someone declines a spot, then I wouldn't think it would be a bad idea to ask pretty soon. (As usual, I'm very far from being an expert, so caveat emptor)
galois Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 Oh man. I've got a work off-site that I need to be in Boston for that Friday. But I guess it doesn't matter because I'm not accepted anyway ? But yes, I'm curious mainly about my status at Duke and Caltech. I also know that my chances are basically nil for Caltech, but I would like to email and find out just so that I know I'm not going, instead of clinging onto this small hope.
WilliamWantPhD Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Anyone waitlisted by U Washington stat PhD? This is my favorite program but I still get nothing, please don’t reject me...
tropicannie Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 I believe UWÂ just sent out a bunch of rejections...I was one of them.
Geococcyx Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Between UW stat, Boston University biostat, UIUC stat a day or two ago, and even a couple reports from Emory biostat and Johns Hopkins biostat today, it seems like the Ph.D. rejections are starting to really ramp up. Best of luck to everyone effected (as well as to anyone recently rejected from one of many Master's programs). I guess we'll be seeing plenty more of these in the next few weeks. whiterabbit 1
StuartLittle Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Does anyone know if UCLA has sent out offers/waitlist/rejections for Biostats PhD yet? As for the other schools, is it too early to email to ask them about admission status or if you got onto the waitlists?
yuizu221 Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 did not receive rej from UW today as expected. May still have a chance to get in or maybe waitlisted? StuartLittle, tropicannie, AsianSpice and 1 other 4
whiterabbit Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 Got my UConn acceptance today!! They must win the record for fastest turnaround, I think that was within 2 weeks. StuartLittle, theduckster, AsianSpice and 2 others 5

galois Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Sigh. I broke down and emailed about my application statuses yesterday. Hope that's not super annoying for the administrative staff. Geococcyx 1
Geococcyx Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) @galois If nothing else, any information you pass on via the forum could save them from answering another email or two (or more?) pretty soon. I wouldn't sweat it too much. Edited February 15, 2019 by Geococcyx
Tsukuyomi Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Just got accepted into Texas A&M. My first time hearing back from any schools. Did anyone else hear from Michigan yet? Geococcyx 1
danny1997 Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Did anyone apply to the Statistics PhD program at UMBC? I had filled out an interest form last semester and got a lot of positive feedback from the program but have not heard anything this semester
hnn12 Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 Did anyone here get offer from Harvard? It seems like they have sent out some offers. But I still have heard nothing. Also, CMU seems to be very late this year.Â
Geococcyx Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Well, we have that one early CMU acceptance and two recent wait lists. Given previous years' results, that seemed to be about half the usual reports on gradcafe -- I'd like to think that means another batch is coming, but we might just have an abnormally low number of CMU admits with us this year -- a difference of ~1 Ph.D. admit and 1-2 waitlists in a cycle doesn't really convince me that we have another batch coming, I'd just prefer not to get rejected.

blehperson Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 I got in Harvard MathStat, Geococcyx, yukichi and 4 others 5 2
