Thank you! Thank you for choosing the Materials Science and Engineering program at UC Irvine! As Graduate Dean, it is my pleasure to receive your application and commend you on your academic accomplishments and interest in furthering your education at our institution. ... Please note that this informal message is only an acknowledgement of the receipt of your application and does not indicate acceptance to any academic program at UCI.

Got another thank you e-mail for applying. Is a little different from the one I got when I originally submitted my application. Its a little strange that they're only just not getting applications sorted out, this app as done in november.... other schools are already sending invites for interviews. I see other people got it too, wonder if it's a mistake?

Got the same graduate school wide email about my application being received to day. Previously was asked to interview back in December and have confirmed my visit. I think this email was a mistake or delayed because they have clearly reviewed applications in December.

Got a 'Thank you' Email from graduate admission dean. The email says that faculty members will review my application.

Received a 'thank you' email -- that says my application is now available to faculties -- today from the dean. Weird everything was submitted on 10/30/2018 very early and they just got done sorting all the applications? Anyone else getting this?
