Has anyone heard back from the MS from UW atmospheric science? Please post.

Official acceptance after unofficial on 2/20

Canadian, undergraduate at UCalgary. GPA converted. 2 REUs, 2 talks and 1 paper submitted.

Just talked to Andrew Feld on the phone. Elated to hear I got in! 2a/0w/0r/7p

Funding information will come in several weeks

Had to email department to ask. Not super unhappy about the decision (though rejection always sucks), but unhappy that they clearly had made a decision and did not have the courtesy to inform me earlier. The least they can do is get back saying no on their own.

Funding packages will be decided over the coming weeks

No interview. No email until asking the staff for results. Strong sense of being disregarded...

Unofficial acceptance.

TTPB: Thanks! I received the acceptance early February, before they invited people to the grad visit days. I had 3 interviews with my 3 POIs in January, but I go to school in Canada so it could be different for others who applied from the US since I've talked to a few others who are going to the visit day and haven't had a change in their status. And my acceptance was sort of informal, just an email with the POIs CC'ed from the program coordinator. It followed with an official offer of funding though a couple of days later.

Re: "To the post below: are you going to accept the capstone offer?" Yes! Was worried about funding the capstone but talked to the department and figured out a plan.

Anybody hear anything yet post interview? Anybody know how many people were interviewed?

5 years funding, 25k/yr, TAship. 2a/1w/3r/8p

TTPB asking about my undergrad school: I went to an average-ranked state school (top thirty). My stats were pretty average but I had multiple publications and talks and really strong recommendations. Thank you, I’m very excited to start in Seattle!
