Don't worry, still lots of time left I applied one week later (Feb 1st or something) haha so I guess I'm waiting a little longer! Thanks for the reply and super congrats on your offer! ❤️ (haha edited because I was so lost on my dates) Edited February 22, 2019 by carolina89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geococcyx Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) Anyone else get an acceptance from Wisconsin addressed to "applicant's first name"? I'm assuming they just sent that to everybody who applied by mistake, but want to make sure. UPDATE: I emailed them, they said the offers are official if anyone else was confused. Sorry for cluttering the thread. Edited February 22, 2019 by Geococcyx I'm reactionary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyHighway Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 @Geococcyx Thank you for sharing your experience! You just got my hopes up! By the way, got a rejection letter from Berkeley today. Geococcyx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazo Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Anyone else have gotten almost no news as of now? I applied to 7 Statistics PhD programs, and so far I have only heard back from two (accepted at Columbia, rejected at Stanford). I only applied to top programs due to already having been accepted to the PhD program in Biostatistics in my department (where I'm currently a Master's student). The other 5 programs I've applied to seem to have already sent out rounds of acceptances and/or rejections according to the results page, and I've gotten absolutely no news from any of them. I can't really be on that many waitlists, can I? This wait is killing me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info. I also got accepted to fully funded UMich fast track MS-PhD in Biostat. I'll choose UMich over Harvard MS if the latter is unfunded.

Tomo Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Is there anyone applying to MA Stat in Columbia? I wonder when to get a result... it seems like they sent out results in end of Feb - mid Mar last year, but their website states "most decisions are not communicated until the end of April" Does anyone know when we can hear back?

I think they r doing rolling admissions. Some people got the results in early Feb, some people may have to wait until May. BTW the deadline for application is May 31st, so definitely no need to worry at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducky500 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I'm guessing hearing nothing from Wisconsin means reject? Or do you guys think it is possible they do it in waves? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geococcyx Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 @ducky500 Hard to say. Previous years suggests that they sometimes send out unfunded acceptances, which would probably kinda double as the waitlist -- you may get that instead. I'd say to at least give it a couple days before you totally assume a rejection (or even totally assume something other than an acceptance). In any case, hearing nothing is better than an outright rejection for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduckster Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Speaking of rolling admissions, does anyone know what's up with the University of Washington MS (Advanced Methods) program? They seem to be giving acceptances & rejections all over the place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BL250604 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I haven't yet heard back from UNC or OSU, both of which I submitted to back in December. Do you think it is appropriate to send an email asking about my status? I believe UNC's deadline was December 11th, or something like that.

Geococcyx Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) @BL250604 So far as I know, Ohio State's only visit day was this past week, and it's getting kinda late in the cycle. Bayessays mentioned that they offer people even in April sometimes, but if they might do so with you, then you need to start really researching them to decide how much you like it. As such, I'd say that you probably should call them to get a sense of what's going on with your application status. There are several people here who went to Ohio State's visit week -- I'm one, so you can DM me if you want a rundown of the visit, and I bet the others would be willing to offer their perspectives too if you asked.

data_scrub Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Can anyone who applied to Purdue's PhD program speak to the results posted earlier? I haven't heard anything yet from them but things aren't looking too great with the no TA acceptance and the accepted to Masters not PhD deal. @BL250604 I was at that visit as well if you end up wanting some information! A lot of people there (including myself) weren't 100% set on going there since visits are still going on for other schools, but I definitely have a better opinion of the program after visiting.

Geococcyx Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I apologize for double-posting, as well as for potentially being the bearer of bad news. However, if any of y'all were waiting for some finality regarding Johns Hopkins biostat, I think the decisions (rejections, I think, at this point) are up on the website, although I haven't gotten an email about it yet.
