Undergraduate at top CS program. I applied near the deadline of Jan. 6. Received an email from Lacey Siefers this morning: "I am excited to inform you that the Department of Computer Science at Purdue University is recommending you for admission to the MS program beginning fall 2021. You will receive your admission message from the Graduate School through the electronic application system in a few days. Please let us know by April 15th via an email response whether or not you plan to attend Purdue's graduate Computer Science program. We look forward to hearing from you!" GG.

Email notifying a change in status.

@GradCafe admin - Please add "other" to the notification types. We (the trolls) need it. Without that option, we would be spamming other options. Removing that option is not really gonna take down trolls at all.

"I didn't come this far to only come this far" - quoted from some overconfident kid who never applied to CS PhDs.

from top CS program, 5 sems TA experience, no research experience, 1 summer internship and once taught over summer.

If I haven't heard anything from my PhD applications, are they basically dead at this point?

TTPB: You don't know how much I wish I could

Purdue MS CS Admit. Got email from Lacey Siefers - Graduate Program Coordinator. Portal status not updated yet.

Admitted to the CMS program and DOLCIT, in the AI / ML specialization.

Purdue Undergrad here. have minors in Stat n Math. Concentrations in ML, DBMS, Theory. 2 Strong, 1 med LORS.

accepted with departmental full-funding.

accepted to the program. not sure about the funding yet.

3.78 GPA, Average GRE, Strong SOP and LORs. I was really hoping for this one. Ah well...

Rejected from Direct Doctorate, accepted to Master via mail saying to check website. Top 10% from EPFL, good SoP, average LoR, poor research experience.

The direct doctorate admissions committee of the Department of Computer Science has carefully reviewed your qualifications, competencies and level of mastery. Unfortunately, the committee has decided that your qualifications do not meet the programme requirements and we therefore have to decline your request for admission to the Direct Doctorate Computer Science. Nevertheless, we are pleased to inform you that we can offer you a place on the Master's degree programme in Autumn Semester 2021

Selected Interview because there is no "Other" option. I want to add one more line to the question asked by the previous poster. The portal states: "You can log into this website in early March to see our admissions decision." Does that mean all decisions are still not out? Or we should expect only rejections as status updates here?

Disappointed.

Undergrad in CS from low-tier midwestern R1. Did not submit GRE. No research experience. Rejected from MS but had application transferred to professional masters.
