3.9 gpa for M.A.

Informal acceptance from the department. Official letter pending.

Informal admission from CS dept. No info on funding. First admit !! :)

Received e-mail from Department today saying I've been recommended for admission. Said I should await formal acceptance letter from Graduate School soon.

good luck to everyone! ~~

Better than out-right rejection :- /. Seems like a lot of folks admitted at the end of last week -- anyone going to decline their offer? ;)

1 international first-author journal accepted; 1 international second-author paper accepted; Good undergraduate GPA

So excited! First acceptance!

Switched to rolling admissions this year due to high applicant volume.

1 year research experience - no publication. Summer internship with Amazon. Undergrad from a less-known CS school. Good GPA & GRE.

Call from writing program to set up an interview for a TA spot. I asked if this meant I'd been accepted. She said she couldn't confirm, but that she generally does not review TA apps for students who have not been admitted to the school. Fingers crossed....
