Graduate School Admission Results

Econ & poli sci undergrad from top university, three years doing quantitative social science work as an RA since graduation. Strong LORs I think.

Anybody's DS application status updated to 'Final Review'? Just wanted to confirm that its not a mass reject! :-p

Today we are writing to inform you that our PhD admissions decisions have been made and the applicants we are recommending for PhD admission have been notified. Admission to our program is very competitive and we have many good applicants; unfortunately, we have to limit the number of students we admit. At this time, we do not anticipate recommending anyone else for admission to the CS PhD graduate program for Fall 2016. If for any reason that changes we will contact you.

Results are out but scared to look at it because I know I am rejected. Is there anyone who got in without being notified of his/her acceptance on Monday?

To the post below, can you refer me if you decide to go to Harvard U?

Got generic rejection email. (315 < my gre score < 320). 1.5 yrs work experience in data-crunching and data analysis in a reputed firm, but not in ML or AI. No research papers published. Undergrad from VIT university (B Tech Information Technology) in India

MSCS Data Science program! Had good machine learning internships, strong LOR's, good SOP. Undergrad from a top Central university in India. Couldn't have afforded to attend USC anyway because of the high cost, but still wanted to get in. Congrats to all who made it :) Maybe my GPA was the problem. Almost the end of the admission season for me. Waiting for UCI. Else attending UFL!

Q 162 V 138 AW 2.5 my English skill is very poor, so no excuse. i studied in University of Tokyo. 1,2 years Liberal arts course: Awful. I didn't study at all. Instead of studying, I did martial arts and got first prize in all Japan competition. GPA in Liberal arts is 2.67. 3, 4 years engineering course: my specialization was complex theory. But I learned programming and machine learning in my faculty. Graduation thesis was about game theory with machine learning agents. Best grade(GPA = 3.81) in my faculty. No publication at the time. Nothing in related field. Firstly, I should improve my English more. Secondly, I should experience in related field and more conference. Thirdly, should get some awards if it's possible.

When you applied, UMN would have sent you an email stating that you can check your status by logging in through a link.
