Thank you for applying to the Computer Science Ph.D. Program at Stanford University. The Ph.D. Admissions Committee has reviewed your application and we are sorry to inform you that the committee did not recommend you for admission. The number of applicants far exceeds the number of those we can admit, which makes the admissions process a difficult and painstaking one. As a result, many strong candidates must be turned down. We wish you every success in satisfying your educational and career goals.

Dang. Was really expecting to get in. Graduated top of my class in undergrad and had strong recommendations, including one from someone who used to teach at Stanford. Oh well. CMU it is for me. Hardly a consolation prize :)

Has anyone still not heard back from Stanford? I interviewed in February and am wondering if there might be an unofficial wait list.

Applied to HCP, non-CS background, strong LORs, strong undergrad. Applied here and GT. GT asked for more info on my background and admitted me. Accepted their offer early on because they’ve been more personal. Have already been working with a professor with similar research interests.
