I noticed that nobody in structure/construction posted their PhD admits/offers this year. Does anyone know if the PhD decision has (partly) released? I have been waiting since Dec and was informed by email that the reviewing process will be conducted through April. But it's almost the deadline for response decisions. Really anxious.

Thank you for your application to the Statistics Master's degree program at Stanford. The review of applications is now complete. After careful consideration, we regret to inform you that the department is unable to offer you admission. Our admissions process is thorough and as fair as possible, however, with the increased number of applicants we received, the selection process becomes even more rigorous and ultimately we must make the difficult decision and turn down many promising applicants.
