There is still hope yet.

I was emailed by a professor today wondering if I was still interested in the program.  She said she will not know if she has funding for another week or two and cannot offer any spots until she knows.  I think the federal cuts may be delaying some funding for federal grant programs.  I had given up any hope with this school because I applied over two months ago and emailed the department twice with no word.  And this professor is different from the POI I listed in my application statement.  So, to everyone out there still waiting...there is still hope.  If many of the professors don't know they have funding, they can't let us know.

That might explain why I have a few programs that have generally notified in late february/early march still haven't notified anybody.
