I anyway didn't have any research fit here. Applied just because it was free. One of my recommenders even submitted the reco a week later than the deadline and I didn't even submit the IELTS scores.

Ignore waitlist. Has anyone heard from Penn State, NYU or UT Austin? Emailed them but no one responded. I see some offers in early Feb posted on gradcafe but no rejections so far.
