It's certainly not abnormal to not have heard from Master's programs. Most schools will take care of PhD admissions first and then move on to Master's. Expand Thank you! Now I can calm myself down. And could you please take a look at my profile if you have time? Getting a sense of what programs I can possibly get into can be really helpful for my summer planning. I deeply appreciate any advice! Thank you!

So I guess it's closer to ~2.5 weeks.

Expand Not really, but if you want to be less forward you could ask when applicants to your program should expect to hear back about decisions. It's a perfectly harmless inquiry, and unless you're pestering them it's not going to affect your application. Just make sure you're emailing an administrator and not a professor (since professors probably won't have time to answer you).

It is kind of crazy that admit day would be so soon after admissions though.
abstract_art Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 Someone posted a Harvard Statistics Masters acceptance, so those who applied to their Masters and PhD programs are probably gonna hear back in the next few days (they look like they release around the same time each year)

Frankenstein12 Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 How does Harvard Statistics department notify applicants of the results?
abstract_art Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 @Frankenstein12 it looks like they send emails to check the application website, and from past years they send out most acceptances at once for both masters and PhD and then send out rejections/waitlists a few days later

I'd think that unless they're paying for tickets/hotel in full, they'd notify you at least 2 weeks in advance to make travel accommodations.
abstract_art Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 rip it looks like there were waitlists and acceptances posted for duke stats. I guess since they sent out the interviews a few weeks ago it means waitlist/rejection if we haven't heard from them yet
Tttna Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 I didn't hear anything back from Stanford icme, but there's an "Official Documents Requests" on my Applyweb. Is there anyone who has that too?

Apparently, the official documents request is a feature they're adding next year to validate transcripts from abroad. If you scroll back on the Stanford results far enough, you'll see a discussion. If you have that option, it'll ask you for money to validate your documents, but apparently a glitch caused the option to appear this year. I'm a domestic applicant and don't see that option anywhere. poopyhead 1
edward130603 Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 For those that heard back from Duke Stats, was it via email or on a website?
Judy Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Does anyone also have a problem accessing the Duke decision letter link after logging into their unlink account? I literally could see nearly nothing on my welcome page.

The "Choose Duke" section doesn't even have the graduate program I applied to listed. But I didn't get an email, so I guess prob waitlisted/rejected.
poopyhead Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 The results survey says someone had an interview for the NYU CDS PhD program last Saturday and according to the interview he's expecting a final decision within a week or two. So things aren't looking great for those of us who haven't heard back ... Wzz 1
abstract_art Posted February 1, 2017 Author Posted February 1, 2017 Congrats to those accepted to UT Austin! One of the posters said they sent out 6 offers and 4 of them were in the results search poopyhead 1
kalgrey Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) To me it seemed like UT was saying they had over 125 applications and are expecting an incoming cohort of 6-- so I'm assuming they admitted more like 15 (based on past admission data), not just 6. But still, congrats to those who applied and got in, that's awesome! Edited February 1, 2017 by kalgrey Wzz 1
hkcool Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 So I called the grad office at one of the schools I applied to today, since people have posted on here that they've been accepted and rejected already and I haven't heard anything. The graduate coordinator took down my name and presumably looked up my information, but then she gave me the email of the graduate committee head of the department and tells me to ask him, and also said all decisions have been made already but official letters have not gone out yet. I clarified with her if it would actually be okay for me to inquire about my application status with him, and she said "I'm sure it would be okay." This was a good program and I'm expecting rejection, but I'm just very confused about this exchange. I thought the graduate coordinator handled these sorts of requests or, at the very least, didn't forward them to professors. I'm probably not going to bother him since I feel really weird nagging a professor about this. Just wondering if this is common procedure though... theine 1
