torchic Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Haven't heard anything from UCSD, UMD, UChicago. I am ready for their rejects in March
terminator Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) I have seen a few people getting admits to the University of Toronto CS grad program. They started sending out their results in early February and have also interviewed some people . I haven't heard anything, neither have I had an interview. So is it safe to say that my application is rejected and the decision is a mere formality now. Edited February 21, 2018 by terminator

I see someone got interview and someone received offer without interview, that makes situation complicated... Did you get invited to visit? They sent out invitations a few weeks ago to visit earlier this month for North American candidates. I'm not sure if they had anything for international candidates, so I wouldn't worry if that's the case. BTW, I am the one who posted an admission without an interview. I was unable to attend the visit weekend and was surprised to hear from them so soon based on data from previous years, which show that decisions were all sent out in March. I think maybe I heard from them earlier because they nominated me for a scholarship that I then had to fill out an application for. Regardless, past data shows them sending out decisions in March so I think there is still hope. Good luck!

I didn't get a invitation to campus visit, I just tried to convince myself because I've taken a grad level CS class at duke and have a recommendation letter from Duke professor so they think there is no need to do that, lol. Thanks for your info!
there_is_a_so_long_wait Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 guys, is USC R1, R2, or R3? how to find out?

You have to check the Carnegie Classifications (http://carnegieclassifications.iu.edu/classification_descriptions/basic.php) to figure out where a school is listed. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong though.

I got admitted into NAU which has a pretty strong Applied Linguistics dept but they are R2, I also got admitted at ISU where the AL dept is not that strong but they are an R1. I don't know what to take into consideration the department or the whole university.

I don't know what to take into consideration the department or the whole university. I'm an international student, so take everything with a grain of salt. I've read both that it helps a lot and also that it doesn't matter as much (as long as you put in the work). My personal opinion is that between two people with the same amount of work done, a R1 degree might be the deciding factor. But I personally would go for the stronger department, where the faculty can prepare you better. Billiam, there_is_a_so_long_wait and Larissa Goulart 2 1

Congrats to everyone and good luck on the rest of your decisions! I got accepted last week, so they might still be making decisions. I don't know for sure though. They also didn't tell me anything about visits, maybe because I'm international.
