Responding to the poster below. I received an email prompting me to check the application portal for the decision letter. I did not receive any message on the portal itself. If you look at the trend previous years, bunch of offers were sent out in March, some as late as April. Best of luck!

(Eco/evo) Completed a master's thesis prior with a top scientist in field. Very strong letters of recommendation and personalized statement. Had been in communication with POI for almost 6 months and had very promising conversations. Great fit. Oh well. I guess test scores counted a lot.
