Was offered admit for Fall '20 as well, but no deferral. Hence I applied again. Before giving admit they asked for financial proofs for the i20 amount to be submitted in 14 days. After 4-5 days of submitting them got mail to check portal. There I could see my status update.

Got an email with "Your UCI Admission Status Has Been Updated"

VLSI, no interview

No GRE. Got an email saying there is an update in my application.

Highly Competetive. They wrote - "In view of the large number of well-qualified applicants and the limited number of spaces available, the admissions committee must be selective in making its recommendations. The selection process is one of identifying those applicants who are best qualified for a specific graduate program, based upon a review of each applicant's file and number of openings in the graduate programs in that field. Your academic preparation and scholarship, letters of recommendation, expressed interests and objectives, and other supporting materials in your file have all been taken into consideration during the committee's review process."

MEng offered instead of MS

I am also waiting.No Updates so, Losing hope from this university.

Ah shit

I had requested for status by writing a mail to EECS Grad office.

Didn't get any email. Only saw it through the application portal.
