Standard rejection email

It's fine. Everything's fine.

0A: 2 R, 10 pending. To quote The Killers, "The punches are starting to land". Not looking good for me :(

To the person who asked the question. They don't accept or reject everyone at the same time. It depends on many factors. You could have a positive or negative answer in a few weeks or months (Some people get accepted on April 15). It is unlikely that your status will change on the Website. eEven if you got accepted, that might take a while. I don't know how it is for IS people, but if you applied for composition and were not interviewed by now, it doesn't look very good.

Interested in specializing in Critical and Rhetorical theory

DMA: music composition

DMA

I am waiting on other offers to make this decision

Rhetoric and Composition focus 0a/2w/3r/1p

Accepted via email. Program is Summer 2019. GPA is MA. Excited about the seeming warmth from the faculty and current students I've met.

Received email to check Spire portal and that the official letter of the decision would be uploaded within 1-2 days. Status says "Update Pending." I would assume this is a rejection, being that those who've been accepted days prior were notified directly, via email. Accepted to another program and have been waiting for UMASS to confirm, therefore a more straightforward decision would've been helpful. (GPA is MA.)

Request for interview via Skype on Feb 2nd.
