I got the email said that my application is under review. And the final decision is delayed to 4/15.......Is that normal?

Plz tell me the faculty name with whom you contacted or tell me the research area.

MCS (Professional Master). BS in CS from not-well known US university. 6 years exp as software dev at not-well known company and 1 year exp as data analyst at reputable company. GRE Q164/V161/AW3.5.

Wow, did not expect that, tough competition this year... Good Luck for those who are still waiting!

To the UIUC question below: I never asked if they have already sent out all admission decisions. But I was basically told that the bar for Masters is higher than previous years, and very talented pool was rejected. Interestingly I found that high GPAs from UIUC undergrad were rejected at UIUC but I know few of them have offers from UCBerkley, MIT and Georgia Tech. Good Luck with yours.

I am sorry to have to tell you that your application was not among the few that were selected for admission to this program. The number and quality of graduate applicants to the University of Washington are extraordinary and these difficult decisions are reached through careful consideration of all applicants to a given program. In many cases, enrollment restrictions are also a factor, limiting our ability to accept all qualified applicants. If you have questions regarding the reasons for this decision, please direct them to the graduate program.

To the UIUC undergrad poster below, thanks for the information. Did he tell you if they've sent out all the admits already?

Asian and UIUC CS undergrad.. my PI told me that they could not admit me due to extremely competitive pool this year. According to him they have denied high GPAs and high GREs this year

MS, thesis based. Nothing but unbelievable. I think it has too much things to do with the research interest.

Applied to MCS (Professional Masters)

sigh~

It hurts me... I am upset now.

I don't care because I accepted JHU EP programs.

A professor told me to apply there and that he was seeking for an applicant like me but did not respond to my emails since then!!!!
