captivatingCA Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 There isn't a profile/results thread yet, so I thought I'd gauge interest. I'm applying in the fall, and it would be super helpful to see some of the profiles from applicants this last cycle. Are you guys interested in contributing? If there's enough interest I don't mind starting the thread. JD009, Geococcyx, insert_name_here and 1 other 2 2
Geococcyx Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) That's an OK idea, but due to the editing times allowed on here, it may make sense to wait until closer to/after April 15th, to get a better sense of waitlist chances if nothing else. EDIT: It's a better than "OK" idea, I got a lot of benefit from looking at those threads too, but I also recall the editing issue cluttering up those threads in the recent past, hence my recommendation.  Edited April 2, 2019 by Geococcyx I'm super lukewarm for no reason

You're right, but I think a good amount of people have their final offers by now or have committed to a program. Those with outstanding waitlists can post when they know for sure what their status is. I can add that caveat to the thread. Edited April 2, 2019 by captivatingCA Geococcyx 1
whiterabbit Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Got into UMass Amherst for the statistics PhD today, with guaranteed 5-year funding as well as first-year fellowship. That puts months of stress to an end, finally I'm officially going to grad school! danny1997, Statboy, Geococcyx and 7 others 6 4
danny1997 Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 Does anyone have any opinion on the Applied Statistics program at bowling green state university? There are other programs I’ve gotten into for a masters but they’re the only one so far to give me a good funding offer
WilliamWantPhD Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 What is Michigan doing this year... So unreasonably long waiting-time... Anyone knows what is going on now?
galois Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 I'm surprised about UNC as well. IMO if students are on your waitlist, you should at least make contact with them at some point prior to April. I can only see benefits to doing that, where are the drawbacks?? Statboy 1

I applied to UNC (STOR) last year and had assumed rejection because I didn't hear anything before April 15th. Then, I received an email in early July telling me that I had been accepted. This was for the MS program but still lol. kokomango 1
EgoClaudius Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Does anyone know how much time stat phd programmes typically give applicants to respond to offers? Would this become less if they sent an offer around April 15th?

I have sent emails to the admission for a couple of times, but still got nothing back. I think it is kind of hurting to both applicants and other schools that are waiting for the admitted's responds to their offers
DataAnalyst Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 I got a rejection mail from University of Iowa today. My first rejection after 5 acceptance. Waoh
DataAnalyst Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Is there anyone that has accepted or planning to accept their offer for Georgia State University for both MS/phd and Biostatistics/Statistics. I was admitted to the Masters in Mathematics with concentration in Biostatistics. If you're in this category, can you signify or PM me so we can discuss about the process.Â
DualRoasting Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Turned down iowa state yesterday. Good luck to those still waiting! Bayequentist and Geococcyx 2
MisP Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Anyone who has got through Penn State's Statistics program for fall 2019?
penguinbombs Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Hey everyone, I got an email from UMichigan this morning asking about my continued interest in the waitlist for their Stats PhD program. I took myself off the waitlist because I have already committed to another program. For the people still waiting on Michigan, I just wanted to let you know that it seems like they are finally getting back to people. Best of luck to everybody!

kokomango Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) Has anyone heard from UFL or UPitt? My status is still pending and I haven’t received any responses so far. I’m so anxious. + I applied for MS program. Edited April 9, 2019 by kokomango
cc2819 Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Just curious. Has anyone been admitted to Berkeley's MA in Biostat? I haven't seen any acceptions this year and am wondering if they're even accepting applicants for 2019.Â

CherryBlossom_ Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Guys, anybody heard from UIUC (MSc) lately? Someone posted in the results page that (s)he talked to the program director and he told results would come out at once (so: not rolling) before (or on) April 15th. But right after that 3 people posted their acceptances already... and so far all I got was radio silence! I have another acceptance reminding me to accept/register/send them visa documentation literally every day... and I'm starting to worry about the timing of things (visa, looking for a place to stay, renting my place here and even buying a cheaper flight ticket to get there haha - internationals have a lot to worry about haha) Do you have some experience with their admission process? Are they used to admit people way past April 15th? Edited April 11, 2019 by CherryBlossom_
Geococcyx Posted April 13, 2019 Posted April 13, 2019 Hey, just wanted to let folks on the waitlists know that I declined my other two offers (out of the three top North Carolina schools), so if you're still waiting on any of them make sure to keep an eye out. Â
lazo Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 I was waitlisted at UChicago Statistics on April 10th, 5 days before the April 15th deadline... Still nothing from Michigan Statistics. I never expected when I was applying to graduate programs that I still wouldn't know where I'd be heading this close to April 15th... Geococcyx 1
