To accepted person below: can you share your GPA and resume? Have you been in contact with any POI?

Good, one less thing to worry about.

Generic Rejection Letter but also given an option to be considered for PennState Harisburg MSCS program. I have better offers anyways.

Rejected without no interview. Good GPA. Graduated from a UIUC-level US university . Multiple research experience, several leaderships including two software companies' founder. It is certainly not a good experience. Right after the deadline, I sent multiple emails to a POI but never get response. Whenever I send an email to the admission, my email got forwarded and replied with a generic email. I also applied the MSc program, and I heard multiple people saying that the school don't accept international student this year because they don't want to fund the higher tuition. It was very risky since I have only applied two schools. But luckily, I'm going to Oxford instead.

International (US) direct PhD admit. Past research experience, no pubs, good LORs. I am not the strongest applicant, but I connected with a prof. with a good research fit. Professors make the offers at UofT, so connecting prior to applying will have SIGNIFICANT impact on the outcome. Good luck to those of you waiting, and if you plan to re-apply to UofT or any other programs, network! Send cold emails! Request Skype chats! Wishing y'all the best.

If you are under review by the department does your submission status change from "Complete and submitted. You can still update any section." to "Complete and submitted."? Do any Mice (MS in CS) applicants have "Complete and submitted." status?

Got a email from a professor (not in the committee but research field overlap). Briefly talked for 5 minutes on phone and scheduled another talk to discuss research interest for tomorrow. He seems to imply official letter will be sent out tomorrow.

As expected
