To the poster who got rejection from UMinnesota, did you inquire from the Grad coordinator or directly got an email?

I was interviewed, told I was on the shortlist and very likely to get a fellowship, and I have now been rejected. No email, just through the portal.

Invited to the virtual visit day

Received email stating that I am in the "hold" pool of candidates, which essentially sounds like a sort of waitlist for "students who the committee was excited about and see as strong candidates, who might be invited for an interview/admission in the future". There are three pools: invited candidates (for the virtual visit day), "hold" candidates, and rejected candidates. Congrats to the invited candidates!
