Do Masters decision usually come later than PhD?

[092;2m3912]

Hi all,

I applied to several Masters programs in mathematics. I searched on this site and it seems that many PhD applicants to the same schools have got their decisions. However I haven't received any e-mail, and there is no message left in the applicant system either. I wonder if it is normal for Masters decision to come later than PhD? Or should I contact the department to know the status?

Thank you in advance for your advice.

It probably depends on the school, but I would assume so, especially because many PhD programs will ask applicants if they want to be considered for the Masters if they aren't accepted to the PhD program.

No. The program I have applied sent results for both master and PhD at the same day.

If you know other people have recieved notifications for the program, then you can probably reach out to the program. However, if you haven't been contacted, then it probably isn't good news.
