~3 years research experience at 2 diff academic labs + industry experience, no publications 2 excellent + 1 average LOR's strong PS, average SOP, good research fit

Not surprised, but the way they inform applicants is seriously rude. You just get an email saying a decision has been made, log into the portal, and see your application status has been changed to declined. Like, how impersonal and snobby is that?

Admitted for full-time MSBA for Summer 2022. Did not submit GRE/GMAT as it was optional due to the Pandemic. Have about 3 years of related work experience as a consultant.

The program is for Fall 2022. I got an email for an interview. The dates I was given are Jan. 20-21. They don't know if it's in person or not yet.

The nepotism of DSCB at UCSF is outstanding. I worked in a UCSF lab for 4+ years, received a masters degree (3.9 GPA), got great letters from UCSF chief of departments, publications, a fellowship in research etc. I had interviews then was rejected. I personally know 4/6 students in DSCB have worked for people on admissions committee in the cohort. I had more experience, higher degree, and a first-author paper in a good impact journal. Don't waste your time-take your talent somewhere else.

The date of notification is an estimate

PhD reject. Did not get fallback MS also.

I received an admission email, but not any formal admission letter. No mention of funding. No clear reply from director of the program regarding or the dept regarding financial help. The whole admission process was so vague.

Professor from UTSA reached out for an interview. I already accepted another offer, but wanted to put in the forum that UTSA may be reaching out with matches now! Hope this provides information for someone.

Not an interview. Has anyone heard back from this program?

Joint PhD with Claremont Graduate University

Not admitted from a waitlist. Acceptance on May 10, 2021. BA in Linguistics from UMASS Amherst.

Accepted off the waitlist!!!

Checked website for update. A 3.75 in stats, machine learning, and numerical analysis courses (6-7) and strong LORS helped compensate my GPA. Best of luck to everybody.
