Received the email at 1 am EDT. Good luck to everyone else!

TTPB: Congratulations to those who got selected. Is there any news that only accepts got sent out?

Quite surprise! I regret to inform you that your application for admission to the University of California, Santa Barbara Department of Mechanical Engineering for Fall 2021 has been denied. Every year we have many more excellent candidates than we are able to accommodate, requiring us to make difficult decisions. Sometimes even outstanding applicants cannot be admitted.

I received the I-20 request

When are they releasing decisions? It's already very late this year. Last year by this time, the decisions were released.

Email from my POI that I should be receiving an official offer from the department. Had interviews with the POI and doctoral students in late February. The graduate admissions office also informed me that I'll be admitted with a five-year funding guarantee. I will accept the offer. Best of luck to those who are waiting.

TTPB: According to the information on Visit Day, The decision will be made only there is a match with faculty. The program says the application profile will be kept to summer and the applicants are encouraged to contact faculty during this period. FYI

Ignore the waitlist. Anyone received the TA/RA offer? Thanks.

Any recent update from the program about the timeline for admission decisions?

Ignore the waitlist. I got an email requesting I re-upload a transcript, and got this answer: "Anticipate 2-4 weeks for Graduate Division to notify you of your decision letter. Please note that we are in our busiest season, and still processing applicants, so we appreciate your patience. "

Those who were admitted to Tandon, did you receive funding information inside the admission letter or later?

TTPB: When was the visit day? I have applied to the program. However, I haven't heard anything at all. So, does it conclude that I have no chance at all? Thank you.

Has anyone got admission? No news for me after the visit day though.

Had an interview with POI in January, no funding information in the admissions letter

Has anyone heard from the University? Has anyone been notified of being considered for Masters instead of PhD?

I was the one who posted UW acceptance. From the posts I saw on this forum, I think that the department does not have enough funding to offer assistantships to MS students. I will be rejecting this offer to accept a PhD offer at a better school
