After a long period of wait! Some positive news. I was informed by a POC at the uni first, before I got the official email.

Timeline: 12/1 submission – 12/16 interview – 2/13 prospective student day – 3/23 informal acceptance – 3/27 formal acceptance

My POI said that they’ve been waiting the last candidate either accept or reject the offer. In case of him rejecting it, I will be invited to an interview next week.

I received an email that an update was available on the portal and found my rejection letter on it. A little disappointed but I was already aware that the seats were extremely limited.

Received an email telling me to check the application portal.

I'm pretty bummed I didn't get it, but at least they let me know sooner than other programs have had in the past. Best of luck to the rest of you

If I have to be honest, i wasn't a great fit.

The earliest interview, the latest decision, the most expensive application fee — and the most perfunctory rejection.

Emailed the department and was notified I was waitlisted, but admissions from America have been severely limited.
