To the poster below who affiliated with multiple universities: my understanding is that Cornell and Berkeley have sent out their "First-rounds" of acceptances and rejects. If you haven't heard anything, that probably means you were neither their "first choice" nor rejected. The schools will likely wait to hear from their "first choices" before reaching out to you with either an offer or wait list notification.
