Applied to following schools for Ms Computer Science.

Utah, Purdue, San Diego, Cornell, UBC, UofT

No communication from any of them. Anybody has any idea about the timeline? The wait is literally turning me crazy

Had Skype interview with 2 UCI CS Professors. Went well.  They had 2 very specific projects in-mind for me with which they want assistance, but made it seem like my actual work towards thesis would be wide open.  They let me know at end of Skype interview that they are sending a recommendation for admission to committee and I should get formal letter or admission within 2 weeks.  I have not heard a peep from USC CS.  My area of interest is in Computational Neuroscience and AI/ML.

wow, amazing congrats!  that is guaranteed in!!!!!!!! 

so happy for you   UCI CS or Informatics?

[Man_About_Town]

CS.  My guess is that they will Skype interview applicants as necessary over the next few weeks and get offers out that way.  They said they were trying to have everything wrapped up in about a month, so if you have not heard from them yet, I would not be too concerned.

Anyone has updates on Duke CS PhD? I see someone got interview and someone received offer without interview, that makes situation complicated...

Yeah, it looks like that so far. I'm trying to arrange a visit on both before I make a decision.

How about you, any good news?
