Anyone else still waiting on UMass Amherst waitlist, or has heard anything recently about their ability to extend offers to waitlisted people? Thanks!

My top PhD application choice researching decision-making. I had anticipated that I would likely be rejected :p, and in the end, they said they had to deny my application due to high competition.

Undergrad from UBC, International student. 3.5 years of full-time clinical research experience, two publications, 3 incoming.

Applied to the PhD program. Received email with an offer to interview for the master’s program

Majored in psych and have about 5+ years working in childcare. Submitted personal statement and 3 LOR. Had an interview 6 weeks ago and heard nothing until now so I didn’t have high hopes but still sad :/

Emailed to notify that the application decision is available to check on portal.

Interview on april 4

No interview

interviewed february 10, notified march 19 that admissions process had concluded

I had an interview Jan. 31st for vcu. Has anyone heard back since the interview?

IGNORE STATUS had my interview back in Feb 21. did not receive any news since have everyone who interviewed since got acceptances, when were your interviews?? does this mean rejection??

Emailed rejection on march 21 2025 1:00pm. Email said there was 110 applicants for only 10-11 spots and this year was extremely competitive. I was expecting a rejection due to less competitive gpa so not surprised! Best of luck everyone! :)
