I didn't apply UCLA because of inadequate recommendation letters. One of the recommender refused to contact me at that time, so I had to seek another one, but ddl for UCLA had passed.

Expand i understand.... 12/1 was early as long as UCR has the perfect match, school ranking is actually secondary imo

UCR ranks great in csrankings.org, especially in Systems area. USNews can be very biased and subjective. there_is_a_so_long_wait 1

Seems that they all sent out their first round offers yesterday...So it's likely that my hope for these top tier schools is frail. Expand Well, what can you do. We just have to wait and see now. Also, with WashU are you referring to University of Washington or Washington University in St. Louis?
TheStLucas Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I hope we all have a good month ahead of us with lots of offers! (At least one for me will be fine )!

there_is_a_so_long_wait Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 so I heard that international students are more vetted than domestic US students... is this true? thoughts?

Expand I don't really know. But the majority of PhD students in the U.S are international (according to some reports!). So, it doesn't really matter, does it? Edited February 1, 2018 by TheStLucas

chances Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I am an international student and I've also applied to CMU MLD & LTI and got no responses. In fact, I found that my supplementary video for LTI was not even opened. (YouTube has analytics features.) Looks like I should be prepared for the worst.

SagarParikh Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Anyone got any admits/rejects/interviews for Canadian Universities for Fall 2018 ( Computer Science )? I got none yet. Mostly 'Under Review' and 'Submitted' status everywhere.

The survey doesn't seem to have too many posts about this.
torchic Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I saw quite many admits from UCSD but I haven't got anything yet
TheStLucas Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I think next week is going to be the "Judgement week". The acceptance offers will either come out then or never. Fingers crossed guys!!! there_is_a_so_long_wait and seems_fair 2
