To the poster below: I contacted ME Graduate Admissions office about any available funding opportunities. The coordinator said: "Most students that come here for the Master's Degree get zero financial aid and either bring their own funding or take out loans." I guess it's safe to say that this admission is equivalent to a respectful rejection. They do it every year.

Does Stanford admit students in the PhD program without interview? I have emailed professors but there is no response from them. The Stanfords generic emails sends out generic responses to any questions. I dont think that email even gets monitored actively.

TTPB who said "Apparently not all the emails were sent out at the same time," how do you know? Did they mention anything in the email? These results also seem to be a week earlier than in the past two years (Feb 12 in 2019, Feb 13 in 2018, so expected it to be Feb 11 this year). Was this an email from PI or official department email?
