Expected since I haven't contacted any of profs.

MASc.

To future applicants -- if you\'re on the fence about applying to UCLA, my experience was bad enough that I would suggest you... probably shouldn\'t bother. Had an interview (in-person, since I\'m in the area) in early February, and the prof I interviewed with was an hour late. Was supposed to meet the students in the lab, but couldn\'t because they were running late for their *next* commitment. Was told I would hear something towards the end of February and heard nothing. Emailed the grad program, the professor I interviewed with, and another prof I listed in my SoP for any update in the first week of April since I had to make a decision before April 15 (at this point, it was mostly just trying to confirm I was rejected), again to no reply. Got an email yesterday saying \"sorry about the delay, we forwarded your application to the master\'s committee\" and a rejection letter in the portal today (with no email notification to check). imo it\'s disrespectful to not even give applicants a timely rejection so we can at least make a totally informed decision (and I understand the circumstances, but applicants are also caught in shitty situation). UCLA\'s refusal to communicate was unique among all other institutions I interacted with and I believe generally speaks to their borderline malevolent disposition towards grad students in general (esp. in light of their refusal to grant Cost of Living Adjustments to grad students, etc)

Accepted into MEng program

Considering how they're one of the earlier app deadlines (December), to post results a week after the commitment deadline is pretty annoying. I also emailed the department three times throughout the process with different questions and I never got a response either.

Decision letters are available to view and print until the end of the current calendar year. Be sure to print a copy of your letter and keep it in a safe place. Loooooooooooooool. So they expect me to print and keep a rejection letter.................Dear XXXXX, Thank you for applying to graduate study at UCLA. We regret to inform you that you are not being offered admission. UCLA receives many more applications than there are student places available. Each of these applications is carefully reviewed by a departmental faculty committee. In this extremely competitive environment, many talented and promising students are not recommended for admission by these committees. We understand that this decision is disappointing, and again, there are many more applications than there are places available. Inquiries about your application or the decision may be submitted in writing to Electrical & Computer Engineering, Attn: Graduate Admissions Officer, 57-127 Engineering IV, attn: Office of Graduate Student Affairs Box 951594, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1594. Please accept my best wishes for success in all your future endeavors. Sincerely, UCLA Graduate Division Diversity, Inclusion and Admissions

Well, that's a shame. Nothing to do now but get a job, buy a 1969 Mustang and try again next year. Goodluck to everyone else!

Does anyone know when the DICE decisions will be released? I am not hopeful at this point but at least a formal rejection, please.

No email, no contacts, status changed on Quest this morning @_@. Man UWaterloo is rude

Had an interview in late Jan. I haven't contacted PI after the interview for a follow up cause I got admission from a better university with a better PI and wasn't planning to go to Waterloo anyway. Didn't get any email just checked the website.

I got interviewed by my PI in Feb and did terribly, contacted the professor a month later to know whether a decision has been made and he told me he is not going to be recommending me for admission. No Email.....Just a change of status on the quest website. Disappointed but not surprised.

To the person below, i was also waistlisted on the 9th of April. I was told i will hear from them on or before April 15th but nothing yet....It is confusing, i don't know if to email them or just wait

Any news on MS admits for Physical and Wave Electronics?

Anyone who hasn't heard back?

Saw this coming but the wait was so long and it released AFTER the 4/15 deadline that most of my other schools had

TTPB: Try email Professor Mona Jarrahi who also handles graduate affairs. I've sent them multiple messages through email and Message Center for weeks but never heard back a thing. But Prof Jarrahi replied after just one day. If you still haven't heard back, you might be on the waitlist since she told me 4/15 was a hard deadline. Also here's some information regarding the coronavirus circumstances for anyone who is wondering/interested: they will accommodate deferrals of 1, 2, or 3 quarters for MS-PhD and PhD students and deferral of one year for MS-only students.
