I saw on the survey page that some people have already gotten a reply (for PhD, only 2 for MSc). Does anyone know if they are done with sending out admits for the MSc program, or are they usually late (last year they sent out rejections around 14-15 Feb) ?

I have also applied for PhD CS, and have not received acceptance or rejection till this moment. They have not even updated the status of my TOEFL and GRE scores in the DCS grad app. However, according to their website, they should finish making decisions by the end of March.

When you receive an acceptance varies greatly depending on which professors are interested in you. My understanding is that the admissions committee only does some basic filtering, then puts applications in a database, then professors personally select which ones interest them. Some professors do it right away, others will probably put it off until the last minute. So don't worry if you haven't heard anything yet.
