***Not waitlist*** Just got an email from the admission office stating that my application (MCS) is still under review. Thank you for your interest in the Master of Computer Science program at the University of Illinois, for Fall 2021. Due to the high interest in this program, our admissions committee continues the review process to ensure a thorough review of all applications. Your application remains under review as of March 15, 2021. We expect to send a decision by March 31, 2021.

MSCS. Generic rejection mail, expected. 9/10 GPA, 2 pubs in top conferences, from a top tier-2 college.

Expected :)) Seems like POI recommendation and interview was very imp in getting an Admit. Anyone applying to UIUC next year should consider emailing and talking to POI before submitting application.

UIUC MCS and UMass MSCS - both have deadlines today, and I haven't heard from either. No email. No website status change. Anybody in the same boat? Seeing the UIUC bloodbath below, I am feeling like a prisoner waiting to be executed.

Clicked on the "Check Status of Application Materials" tab. Got the following message: You are not authorized to access this component. (40,20) You have not been granted security authorization for the component you are attempting to access. You may have access to the designated component and page, but not in the specified action mode (such as Correction or Update/Display). Contact your system administrator. Anyone else faced this before? Also, would be very helpful if the ones who got admits could tell if you applied for MS/PhD or vanilla MS. Thanks a lot :)
