Graduate School Admission Results

Any news my fellow update pending people??? I'm checking my spire portal every hour but no changes yet xD

Mine turned Update pending today, but no congratulatory message on spire home portal. Looks like a rejection. Brace yourself boys and girls :'(

Hey guys, so i got into Amherst MSCS and Columbia MSCS.. mind giving your opinion on which one should i take? Tuition is not a problem. Thanks

I am one of the people for whom the update pending thing came up yesterday. I have no luck till now, what about you people? Congrats to the 2 of u who got in!!

Just received the admit. Checked in the morning and the status was "Application Under Review". Never changed to update pending. Submitted GRE 327 (Q-170). No publications. B.Tech in EE from mid tier IIT (8.7 gpa).

I'm the person whose status changed to "Update Pending" this morning (and was expecting Mass rejects). Just checked my Spire home page and saw a congratulatory message with options to confirm acceptance. Good GPA, GRE and publications from Tier-2 college. Good luck to all others waiting on their decisions!

TTPB - Can you share your profile? Just to get an idea of where we are headed.

My status also changed to "Update Pending" this morning. I have a strong feeling it's going to be Mass rejects. :(

TTP(s)B: My status is also update pending since yesterday. Top 20 University in India(Not IIT) , CGPA- 9.18, GRE-327, 3 months internship in 2 companies(2months + 1 month) , many projects and a public speaker. Regarding this being a rejection wave or not, i got no idea but I dont think i'm gonna get an admit this season.

The status has changed to Update pending for me too. Stats are 323 GRE and 7.7 GPA from Tier-2 institute in India. Could others share their stats too! And what do they think if it's a reject wave or not?

I am the girl from the first post above. But yeah, let's hope it's an admit. It can be a technical error because the mail clearly says a formal decision letter will be issued in 1-2 days.

TTP(s)B: Same. Status changed to update pending yesterday. I received an email half an hour back about an update but it still shows Update Pending. Is there any chance it will be an acceptance?

To the guy who posted about recieving a mail from UMass below. Same, I too have been waiting for update pending to change to an admit/reject since yesterday and recieved a mail a few minutes ago

MS/PhD applicant here. I think no MS/PhD results are out yet. Might be wrong. Would be great if any future posters would mention if they applied for MS/PhD and got results (For MS/PhD or just vanilla PhD) to help us. Thanks :)

TTPB: The person who is rejected, I am sorry for your rejection. Did you apply for MS/PhD or MS only?

Rejected after update pending status. :'(

Anyone else other than the guy a few comments below for whom the status has changed to update pending on spire?

Okay, the last update was not for the person below. But for the one below them.

TTPB: From the CICS website - "**Updated on March 16, 2021** While we are working remotely we hope to have all Fall admissions decision made by March 22. Students who are accepted to one of our programs must confirm acceptance by April 15. Due to the large volume of applications to both programs we request that all applicants refrain from calling or emailing about the status of their application. You will be notified by March 22 of our decision."

Status changed to update pending. I'm shitting myself right now
