To the poster below, I was contacted personally and invited for a visit last month and accepted shortly after. From what I learned, they try to only accept people that are tied to a particular faculty member who have secured funding. If you know who you want to work for, give them a call. If not, Dr. Mohney would probably be the person to contact about your application.

AMO experiment. Was in my spam folder. Also notified on website with REJECTED in big, bold, red letters. A little surprised as I got into better schools. They must have a seriously limited number of spots.

Not surprise, with the GPA 3.81, GRE V162 Q152 W3, TOEFL 97, I personally believe that my resume was not competitive enough for this school. I've expected the rejection!!!

Generic letter (the email and the rejection letter starts with "Dear Applicant" and not with my name). The accompanied email had no nice words. The university can't be bothered with being gentle. :|
