Emailed from the DGS. Five-year funding. I wish I could be there as I was a strong fit. But have to decline my offer because I already accepted my offer to another program. Sad.

To the post about Michigan Electrical PhD below me, I am in the same boat as you. No idea if to take the silence as rejection or not

Applied by the deadline (15 Dec). Still no communication from the department or the profs. on the application status. Can anyone tell what is this supposed to mean? Is it a rejection?

Ignore waitlist: Are all the decisions regarding the PhD program sent or are people still waiting?

1 year ML/robotics research experience, no publications, no internships, undergrad mechE degree with some cs experience, 2 /3of my LoR writers oversaw my robotics projects

I wonder if they place all rejection into waitlist.

Accepted with 5 years of funding. Interviewed first week of March, and had great interactions with all of the faculty. Still waiting to hear about a couple schools I'm waitlisted at, but very excited!

Disappointed

Thank you for your application to the University of Michigan's Master's Program in Data Science. The admissions committee was very impressed by your application. However, we are not able to offer you admission to the program at this time. Rather, we have placed you on the waitlist and will contact you again as soon as we can by April 15.

2.5 years of related work experience at a well known company, undergraduate thesis in an autonomous driving topic from a well known private university.

1 Publication to major wireless communication conference. 3 letters from professors that I did research with. Undergrad in CS. 1yr work experience.

Anyone received an admit yet?

I have good work experience of 4 years. Strong LoRs and SoP. I was seriously hoping to get in.

Disappointing but not completely unexpected
