HCP. Finished 18 credits of 200 and 300-level NDO classes (close to full GPA). Focused and strong SOP. Got a "did well in class and project" LOR from a Stanford professor; two very strong LORs from high ranking managers (a VP and a senior director).

Don't listen below comment if you believe you're looking for PhD. MS in Stanford is termination program. It's really really hard to transfer to PhD program so most of people leave to somewhere for PhD.

To the poster below, at least if they're not goingto admit, they should send rejection letters/notifications. Suspense is dangerous, especially when you're yet to get offer elsewhere yet.

Got this reply to my email today - Thank you for your email -- we are pleased that you are applying to Stanford University for your graduate studies! The SDC admissions committee is still releasing decisions. The original aim to notify all applicants by mid March has been pushed back more than once. We are unable to speculate when they might issue a decision on any single application, however, we are expecting a new batch of decisions by the end of next week. Once a decision has been made, the decision letter will be posted to your applyweb account and you will be notified by email at that time. Thank you for your patience.
