Received an email to check decision letter in the protal. I have 3 internships (REUs & NSF funded), 1 industry Co-Op, 6 conference presentations and one of the top students of my graduating class :(

One pub, one preprint, another preprint this month. GPA: 9.4/10. Kept mailing PI but they didn't even respond back. Let's go gang.

at 3 am EST, someone was behind on work lol

Significant research and teaching experience - transferring from another grad program

3.71 Gpa

They sent an email that I think means I was waitlisted but not to expect an offer. “Although the committee was positively impressed by your application, at this point I do not anticipate that we will be able to make you an offer. I'm providing you with this information so that you can make the best plans for yourself going forward. If you like, I can keep your application active, just in case a space opens up. However, a late opening is not something you should count on.”
