To the USC posters below. I have the same decision round too i.e. 674 and haven't heard from them yet. Can anyone shed some light on the significance of decision round? Is it constant for an application or incremented internally by USC?

IITian with one 2nd-author publication in IEEE in computer vision I have a good news for those waiting to get offers. I will be turning down the offers I have from USC, Brown, UPenn, UWMadison, UCIrvine, UWashington and Georgia Tech in few minutes. Hopefully you will get it. Good Luck everyone.

No words about funding.

Has Stanford notified all applicants for their MSCS program? I have yet to receive a letter of acceptance or rejection.

Rejected by all schools in top 5. I guess it is not that easy to be in those schools. Not waiting for another year though. Going to GTech, Atlanta for Masters and already have a summer internship at Twitter for summer 2015

Super excited to go to Stanford after a rejection from Berkeley (and still no answer for CMU ECE Masters Program)

no email notification

No email notification.

One internship in am Indian startup, one in a US university, one in a consulting company. From Physics but good grades in computer science courses. Good recommendations and good projects

Offer letter was pretty specific about no aid or assistantships. :/

No details about funding. Mentioned contact details in the letter.
