TPB. Your background looks strong. Not sure of your area or degree type. If you are applying for Ph.D. (or top-notch research masters like Berkeley's or Cornell's), the admission is very situational and there is no way to find any criteria or threshold. You often see people doing their master from CMU with 3+ top conference papers got rejected; the most common practice for securing a slot is to get very strong RLs from someone who directly knows one's ROIs (previous co-workers etc), and quite frankly for those who do not have that would hardly stand a chance. If you applied to professional master programs, it is indeed very strange you didn't get any admits. But shit does happen. There are people who got admitted to top-4 without extracurricular experiences and so the opposite could occur as well.

TTPB: Yocket posters are all MEng, which has slightly lesser requirements than the MS CS. Not sure which one you applied for. Cornell's MS CS is incredibly hard to get into, their requirements are pretty crazy. I heard their overall batch size last year was 14 students.

I notice some more acceptances are out. People on yocket have gotten in with 312 and 320 GREs. I know GRE isn't the only criterion, but I have a 335 GRE, a 9.5/10 GPA from a decent Indian University, 116 TOEFL, an international conference review publication, a national conference best presentation award, two other research experiences, a bunch of decent ML/AI projects, two software engineering and one data science internships. I don't quite understand what colleges want. Rejected by Toronto, Princeton, UCB, Stanford, ETH, CU Boulder (seriously?), Austin, UIUC and a bunch of others. Columbia interviewed me in February and are ghosting me since then, and Amherst is still stuck on review.

TPB: I'm very sorry about your rejection. Did you receive a call for the interview?

Rejected via e-mail , expected

Not very surprising. I only have 3 research experience, no papers. Offered opportunity to transfer application to M.Eng.

TTPB- Everyone got the same generic mail and it was mentioned during application that if you dont get selected in MSCS then they will consider for MEng program.

I had applied for the MS in Computer Science at Cornell ,just being rejected but got an option my application to be considered for the M.Eng. at Cornell.Anyone got the same email?

MS CS reject.

TPB, Congrats on your CS admit. Did you apply for MS (Thesis) or MEng?

Did my undergraduate in Canada. 1 publication + 3 research + 1 intern.

Meng CS Ithaca

CS MEng in Ithaca

Was accepted into Cornell Tech ME CS. Will be declining the same for UofT. Maybe someone from waiting list will benefit. Good luck everyone :)

M. Eng program. Received a video interview offer this morning. Submitted my application on February 1 (Round 2).

Received a one-way video interview offer this morning. Submitted my application in round 2.

To the post below. Yeah me too, I just got notified that it is currently under review . I though the final decision would come out, such a long wait.

Just received an email says that application just starts to be under review, and it will still take about 4-6 weeks for the result. Anyone else got this?

Does anyone have the same question as me? I submitted the application before 12.13 but the the status(seen from apply web) is still 'in progress'.
