Georgetown University Computer Science Graduate School Admission Results

goodbye first choice, hello 4th rejection. i'm ready to move on. last one to hear from is my last choice, no thanks!

The day is getting closer. Still have no idea what to expect.

I'm not going to accept their offer, since there is no funding for me

I think that would be a big resounding NO. Wednesday ... come quick!

I emailed Lana (the grad contact) about 2 weeks ago and she said that notifications would be going out April 1st. Seeing as how the person below got that wait-list notification, I am starting to become pessimistic and am guessing that anyone who hasn't heard by now will be getting a rejection email April 1st. Who knows?! All these schools have been incredibly inconsistent.

Are we sure that acceptances/rejections have been sent out? I have not been notified at all, through any method of contact. No email, no letter, no phone call, nothing (I guess that could be good, since wait listed(s) are coming out). I am waiting for my decision as well.

So if they have sent out acceptances and waitlists, what about rejections? I assume that not hearing anything by this point is not a good sign?

No word on funding

The letter was signed by Dr Alison Hilton. "... Because everyone is making decisions about graduate programs at this point, we have asked those admitted to let us know of their decisions as soon as possible. We should begin to identify openings in mid to late April and we will be in touch with you as soon as possible after that. Please be aware that our recommendations must be approved by the Dean before the Graduate School Admissions Office sends you an official letter indicating your wait-list status. Meanwhile, we want to give you a little extra time to think about your decisions. Of course we understand that you may prefer to accept a definite offer from another program at this stage. However, it would also be helpful for us to know whether you would still wish to enroll in our program if the opportunity comes through. We had nearly 170 applications, and the nature of our program means that we keep enrollment fairly low. Placement on the wait-list means that you are among the thirty top applicants. This might be somewhat encouraging even though we cannot give you any indication of the chances of admission at this date. ..."

to the poster who was wait listed for A&M Studies ... what exactly did they state in the email? when should you know if there is room, and did they say how many students they are accepting?

Enrolling at SIPA instead

The assistantship is $18,580 ($9,290 per semester) to cover living expenses.
