mhnaomi Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Did they send an email to check the website or did you just happen to check? They sent an email and asked me to check the website.
statisticsfall2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 For those who received NC State rejections today: How did they notify you?
statisticsfall2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 There is so much great support on this thread! thanks to everyone keeping it positive.
stats applicant Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Just got a CMU admit. general letter in the email, international student. Was a bit worried after Harvard and Washington came out, and I was also accepted to Michigan, but now finally I can sleep well. This is just the statistics, I also applied to the machine learning track, but they said an answer about that would come in the future. Edited February 5, 2014 by stats applicant
statisticsfall2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I've been accepted to CMU as well! Incredibly happy right now.

Congrats! I received an admit as well. It said they will get the Open House details to us within a couple weeks. Does any one know if they usually pay for visits for their acceptances? I'd really like to visit.
Stat Assistant Professor Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Congrats to CMU admits! I applied to their joint program in Machine Learning and Public Policy, but have not heard back yet. Thinking I should've applied in Stats now, but what's done is done.
effhorses Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Congrats to CMU admits. I haven't heard anything either way from them. Probably the one school I haven't heard from that would make for a difficult decision.
koobear Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Congrats on everyone who got into CMU! To those of you who got in: Do you guys mind posting your scores, GPA, etc. so we can get an idea of what the schools are looking for? And could you provide some info about your application process? Thanks!
koobear Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Oh, and I was wondering if I should submit my math GRE score. I didn't if the school required it, because I thought a 670 would hurt my chances.
echlori Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Looks like I'm going to be getting a few more rejection emails soon :/
persistent_homology Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I got CMU! I am over the moon they are my top choice! Just need to convince my fiancee that they are her top choice . Accepted to stats phd, I applied for joint with ML which has yet to be decided, if that is successful then I can choose between. Congrats on everyone who got into CMU! To those of you who got in: Do you guys mind posting your scores, GPA, etc. so we can get an idea of what the schools are looking for? And could you provide some info about your application process? Thanks! My scores are nothing special Q:164/V:169/W:4.5. I don't exactly know how to translate my GPA, but high. I am basically a pure mathematician turned statistician so I have a lot of graduate classes which I think helped, and one publication and another on the way. One of my coauthors was my LoR writer who told me the letter was 'very strong', and I someone who I have done a lot of independent study with also told me his letter was very strong (both pure mathematicians). My third letter was from a mathematician who doesn't really know me, so I suspect the letter was rather generic. I don't want to waffle in this thread so if you want to know anything else pm me. I look forward to seeing some of you there!
CauchyProcess Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Could anyone admitted to Berkeley post your GPA & similar info to get an idea of where the bar was set?
muzili Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 waiting is killing me anyone know news about Cornell, UMich or Duke? Like have they sent out all the acceptance? And how many students will be given offer?
koobear Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Oh, and I was wondering if I should submit my math GRE score. I didn't if the school required it, because I thought a 670 would hurt my chances. Oops, I meant if the school didn't require it.
alienne Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 waiting is killing me anyone know news about Cornell, UMich or Duke? Like have they sent out all the acceptance? And how many students will be given offer? I got an email from Cornell saying I'm waitlisted. It seems that they've sent out first round offer, and everyone on next round of offer if there's funding left is on the waitlist. I got an on-site interview from Duke early January, but if you are international, it's possible that they are still reviewing your materials and possibly offering you a Skype interview. There's hope!
Funkoverload Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 got rejected from ncsu stat phd. fifth rejection and no admission. sad.
Funkoverload Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 checked jhu application website and saw the notice below. seems to be another rejection then sixth rejection. sad. "Thank you for submitting an application to the PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) program in the Biostatistics department. The Admissions Committee has reached a decision on your application and the Department will send communication directly to you. Please contact the Academic Administrator, Mary Joy Argo in the Biostatistics department office at 410-614-4454 or margo@jhsph.edu if you do not receive a letter within the next two weeks."
Funkoverload Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 no interview invitation for rochester stat phd. seems to be another rejection. then 7th rejection. lol
Funkoverload Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 so it is weird not being rejected from brown biostat phd yet. saw some rejection postings here. lol
Stat Assistant Professor Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 koobear, I think you may be able to get better responses specifically about applied math programs over at mathematicsgre.com where there are a lot of pure and applied math folks. Not sure how helpful a statistics admissions thread will be for math... the prerequisites for entry are different, for example (I myself had not taken any prob/stat classes until I entered my MS program in math, heh). You can also feel free to PM me if you'd like. I can maybe offer a few answers since my MS degree is in applied math. Cheers.
effhorses Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) waiting is killing me anyone know news about Cornell, UMich or Duke? Like have they sent out all the acceptance? And how many students will be given offer? Didn't apply to Cornell, but I also have yet to hear from Michigan or Duke. I don't think Duke has accepted anyone yet, just rejections and some interviews. Edited February 6, 2014 by effhorses
Statcheng Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I haven't heard from Duke as well. Do they send out all interviews already?
Stat Assistant Professor Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I have not yet heard from Minnesota. Only one person on these boards reports to having heard back with an admission offer. Did anyone apply to UNC-Chapel Hill for stats? I'm hoping they reply soon as well.
