Undergrad in ECE from US University

Same as the person who shared 'copy-paste email from EECS admission chair saying I've been waitlisted along with ~50 others across EECS subareas. EECS apply portal is still blank.' I wonder when they will send out the final results. It says in the email that they will do it in March, but still they initially claimed results would be out in early March...

With a concentration in Electrical Engineering

Reached out to an ECE professor who still had an opening in their lab. They feel like I may be a good fit, so I have an interview with them and their research team next week.

Standard rejection email

Kinda Disappointed.

No clue on Scholarship/Aid. Unlikely to attend, Non CS/EE major from Top 5 IITs, no pubs, CGPA in mid 8s.

First reject. 1 Journal submitted, 1 Conference accepted working on another paper, 3 internships(all relevant). currently, Assistant at a lab working on self-driving cars. Applied for Intelligent systems and controls, undergrad majors is control systems.

Got the following notification. To others accepted to USC MS ECE: Is there a deadline to provide financial proof statement (to obtain official admission letter) ? "We are pleased to inform you that you are *academically eligible* for admission to the Fall 2021 semester as a graduate student majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering (Machine Learning and Data Science) leading to a Master of Science. To receive your official offer of admission, you must first demonstrate proof of the ability to pay tuition and living expenses."

Accepted via email. Said nothing about funding.

Got acceptance notification on application portal. They emailed me the notification about a week later. Said nothing about funding.

An email asked me to check portal for decision. Wouldn't have joined Duke University anyways. Got a far better offer.

Ignore waitlist, Is there anyone else waiting for response from ECEN department? I tried multiple times. No one is responding.

The wait is killing me. Any news from the uni??
