Still have not been notified, but decided to check the application portal. Decision was listed as 'complete' and I was waitlisted; said that they had sent out first round of acceptances and those folks have until April 15 to accept / deny; they would notify me if spaces opened up at that time or before. Congrats to those who got in!

The review process for MS applicants for Fall 2018 admission is underway and may continue until the end of May. The admission committee currently has a large number of applications to review. Because of the size and diversity of the EECS department, admissions are managed by the research divisions rather than a central committee. Applicants in different areas will be hearing at different times. Unfortunately, we cannot be more specific about the decision timeline.
