Was pretty much expected. Was too much of a hopeful try. Had a major GPA of 3.8 but a lack of useful research must have been the downfall.

IGNORE WAITLIST STATUS. I reached out to the admissions office through their contact form on Monday 2/21 and have received no response. They don't list a phone number on their website. I have no idea when they plan to send decisions. We're headed into March now! The applyweb checklist has read “25% of decisions have been made” for 3 weeks. When are the rest going to be made? This is much later than previous years afaik. Do they usually interview or anything? Has anyone heard from the Operations Research group at MSE?

Feeling very grateful! Applied for environmental engineering (hydrology and water resources), following 3 years of work experience, with letters of rec from 2 former professors and 2 work supervisors. I'll be studying part-time through the SCPD program.
