Electrical Engineering welcomed numerous master's candidates, suggesting a strong acceptance rate for these applicants. Economics showed successful waitlist acceptances, reflecting a hopeful trend for late-stage applicants. Civil and Environmental Engineering had several interview opportunities, highlighting its competitive nature. Bioengineering and Translational Research programs predominantly reported rejections, emphasizing their competitive entry barriers. Physics saw both waitlisting and acceptance, indicating a selective but attainable program. Chemistry had multiple interview opportunities, underlining its competitive environment. Management Science and Engineering experienced numerous rejections despite strong applications, underscoring the program's high standards.

To the poster below curious about visit dates: the Berkeley EECS visit website hints that the Stanford visits would be right before Berkeley's. So that would put it roughly between CMU CS and Berkeley EECS at March 6-9

To the Stanford posters below, congratulations! Are all the offers so far only to American students? (Now I see why Gradcafe has that entry) Are offers to international students out too? Wouldn't expect Stanford to do it separately but who knows...

As expected, still sad enough. I wish nothing but the best for those who are admitted into Stanford. 1 acceptance (Cornell Econ) / 4 Rejections (MIT Econ, Stanford Econ, Stanford GSB,Yale Econ) / 1 Implicit Rejection (Chicago Econ)/6 TBD. My potential research interests are in Labour Economics and Development Economics. Did my undergrad at UBC (With Honors in Econ and minor in Math) GPA92, RAed for a prof (8 months) during my junior year, took two graduate courses during my senior year. I think a master's degree may do a great help to those who aim high.
