I've seen several folks in this thread waiting for the M.S., but no one has mentioned the PhD program lately. Hey. I am still waiting to hear from the PhD program. I think they roll out the results in batches so hopefully their result should be out soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have really no idea what is going on with UMich...I just got an interview with the statistics department. I asked whether I am on the waitlist but the professor told me they are still interviewing applicants before sending out offers and setting up a waitlist. The interview just lasts less than 10 minutes...Really didn't anticipate that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ileeminati Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I heard that Umich has waves of offers in the order of desirability. As soon as other people decline Umich offers, they will send out a new wave of acceptance. This happens, when Stanford & Berkeley release their admissions or when people decide to go to others schools. Don't lose hope. I believe I am waitlisted(?) as well. I hope we all can get in.

ileeminati Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) I am a current student at UMich. @NumStatsI haven't emailed them, but I have asked around (unofficially). @jswizzle48 Possibly (until they get enough people who accept their offers). I have been told to be patient and a new wave of offers should come soon. My guess is next week before our spring break.

phdhopeful1995 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Does a publication from a CS conference help much with admission to Stats program? One of my papers recently got accepted to a top conference in Natural Language Processing. I am thinking about letting the committee know about the update but I am not sure whether it will have any weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a record number of applicants to the program this year with very qualified backgrounds. Currently you are on the waitlist. The admission committee will have final decisions by April 15 (hopefully sooner). Best, If so, I think when he says waitlist..it's waitlist to get reviewed and not waitlist to get offer. What is your opinion ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they did the first round separation (definitely accept, definitely reject, and undecided). Maybe we fall under the third category. So it might be the case that they are still deciding on how to separate these undecided people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnb_nanashi Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 For any MS applicants in here: I got an email response from Harvard's Department of Biostatistics saying the committee is still reviewing applications and hopes to have their decisions in by March 1, but can't guarantee it.

GoPackGo89 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I received admission to Duke masters in biostats (was rejected from their PhD) for anyone curious about Duke biostats.
