Graduate School Admission Results

TTPB: Applied for just MS. However, still under review. It's been 3 and a half months.

Lol. People channelizing all their rejection frustration by ranting over the portal. THIS WOULDN'T MAKE YOU FEEL ANY BETTER. You better work on your profile and make yourself worthy of the portal. No one from the univ told you to continuously check the portal. You better write a script that does it for you just like our god BeanBag (i.e., Vijay R**) from the Yocket group did. Why can't you people just wait for 2 more days when you have waited for 5 months. Rather utilize your time in improving your f*ing computer science knowledge.

MS/PhD applicant here as well, graduated from a school in London. My portal still says Application Under Review and i'm panicking cause today is the 22nd. I really want to go here but if I cant, i'll just go to George Washington as I have a pending offer there.

TTPB: MS/PhD applicant here. Looking at the previous year's result dates in GradCafe, we should be getting results for MS/PhD over the course of the week. ATB!

" just like our god BeanBag (i.e., Vijay R**)" Self promoting holier-than-thou attitude go brrrrr ... Please fu** off

I have also applied to the MS/Ph.D. program. But I don't think we would get a positive decision now, at least not for the MS/Ph.D. program. There might be some hope for an MS admit. To the poster with the outstanding profile: If you have so many publications, why are you even cribbing about UMass? UMass MS is not a research program. Also, getting an MS from CMU and UMass wouldn't matter much when you apply for jobs. You would know all this if you had done some research of your own.

Our god BeanBag is happy to hear that he made it to GradCafe finally. "Mogambo khush hua" Any idea if the 22nd march deadline would be followed for MS/PhD students too?

Was about to log into Spire to check my status, and then realized I got a rejection in the morning. To be honest, feeling kind of relieved.

"Looking forward to hire UMass students for low capability jobs once I graduate from the top5 school that I'll be attending." Funny where you get your entitledness from Karen. Colleges are looking for people beyond just the academic qualities btw and they definitely don't want an egocentric a**hat with an inferiority complex like you attending but I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand anyways. We all can tell what kind of person you are by calling other students mediocre. Plus I sincerely doubt that will be/ have been admitted to a top 5 school based on how salty you are that you got rejected. So have a great day and think about why you got rejected before posting to GradCafe

Not waitlist. Did anyone get a status update today?

To the guy who posted about recieving a mail from UMass below. Same, I too have been waiting for update pending to change to an admit/reject since yesterday and recieved a mail a few minutes ago

TTP(s)B: Same. Status changed to update pending yesterday. I received an email half an hour back about an update but it still shows Update Pending. Is there any chance it will be an acceptance?

I am the girl from the first post above. But yeah, let's hope it's an admit. It can be a technical error because the mail clearly says a formal decision letter will be issued in 1-2 days.

The status has changed to Update pending for me too. Stats are 323 GRE and 7.7 GPA from Tier-2 institute in India. Could others share their stats too! And what do they think if it's a reject wave or not?

TTP(s)B: My status is also update pending since yesterday. Top 20 University in India(Not IIT) , CGPA- 9.18, GRE-327, 3 months internship in 2 companies(2months + 1 month) , many projects and a public speaker. Regarding this being a rejection wave or not, i got no idea but I dont think i'm gonna get an admit this season.

My status also changed to "Update Pending" this morning. I have a strong feeling it's going to be Mass rejects. :(

TTPB - Can you share your profile? Just to get an idea of where we are headed.

I'm the person whose status changed to "Update Pending" this morning (and was expecting Mass rejects). Just checked my Spire home page and saw a congratulatory message with options to confirm acceptance. Good GPA, GRE and publications from Tier-2 college. Good luck to all others waiting on their decisions!

Just received the admit. Checked in the morning and the status was "Application Under Review". Never changed to update pending. Submitted GRE 327 (Q-170). No publications. B.Tech in EE from mid tier IIT (8.7 gpa).

I am one of the people for whom the update pending thing came up yesterday. I have no luck till now, what about you people? Congrats to the 2 of u who got in!!
