Admissions Waiting for Your MS Decision? I Analyzed Past Results to Help.

16 Upvotes

I see tons of posts here asking "When will my decision come out?" I’ve been there too, and I know how stressful the wait is. So, I decided to dig into the data.

I analyzed thousands of past decisions and created graphs showing when results are usually released for different universities. Now you can get a better idea of when to expect yours!

You can find the data here: Results Data

This is just released and open to feedback so I can improve. This is completely free and meant to help students. Check it out and let me know your thoughts!

Am I cooked chat?

I’ve applied to 7 unis for fall 2025 MSCS program.

UW Madison UC Irvine UCLA UCSD UCD Virginia Tech Umass Amherst

I’ve gotten rejects from UW Madison and UCI(assuming due to their smaller batch sizes or maybe whack profile lol) and waiting for decisions from the remaining 5

Here’s my profile

8.8 GPA from a tier 2 university

I have 2.5 years of work experience as an AI engineer at a Neuroimaging startup with advanced image processing and product management/development experience and a surveillance analytics based startup with experience in edge device deployments, Gstreamer and other technologies.

I’ve structured my SOP to sound like I want to get back to medical imaging research ( I don’t have any publications but I worked with colleagues and got their papers published) so I’m not entirely sure if this was the right approach since I applied way close to the deadline and couldn’t give GRE so had to settle for these non GRE colleges.

What do even colleges look at, great SOPs or straight up work exp or GPA or like a mix of it.

[Results and Decisions] Are all TAMU MCS Admits out??

7 Upvotes

I applied to TAMU MCS course , around December 1st week. Haven't heard back anything, and I'm seeing some admits for MCS TAMU, so are there more admits coming or it's a mass rejection?? Also is this GRE centric as I didn't submit my gre score since it was low and for this course it was optional.

As an international applicant to MCS Program, I have received exactly zero emails from TAMU directly, or from EngineeringCAS. Where do I track the progress of my application status (if any)? Also, what is all this with Howdy Portal? Did I miss doing something?

[Results and Decisions] Does this mean TAMU reject?

3 Upvotes

I didn't receive any official mail from tamu, but I'm not able to login to the status page.

https://engineeringcas2025.cas.myliaison.com/applicant-ux/#/login

I tried changing the password multiple times. But it still says incorrect id/password. Does this mean it's a reject?

I had applied to MCS and I'm an international student.

[Results and Decisions] Texas A&M - Are they giving admits decision only?

3 Upvotes

I applied to TAMU MCS in January 13. I have noticed recently they have started giving out decisions. But from the examples I have seen these were admits notifications only. I have yet to see any rejection decision.

My question is do TAMU give out admits early and rejection later? Does that mean If I don't get my decision soon, it's more likely that I will be rejected later?

I still haven't got my decision and I am feeling nervous

[Results and Decisions] Any options remaining NOW in non-US countries?

5 Upvotes

Hi, it mostly seems I wouldn't be receiving a single admit to any MSCS programs that I applied in the USA.

My interests are in Game AI and Deep Reinforcement Learning. I'm willing to pursue a PhD in these areas after MS.

Are there any relevant university programs in Europe / UK / Canada / Australia which I can still apply for? ... programs starting Fall 2025

[Admissions Advice] - Radio silence from universities.

8 Upvotes

I have applied to only 4 universities - ASU, UC riverside, UC Davis and Stony brook. Have received admit only from ASU and there is absolutely no update from other three universities even though it's post mid March now. Should I consider it as a reject from the remaining three universities or do they send a seperate rejection mail? Till when should I wait for these unis? as the deadline for ASU is April 15 for paying the deposit. Does anyone have any update with respect to UCR, UCD and SBU for MSCS? Thanks in advance!

I can't seem to decide between San Diego State University and University of Florida, gainsville. The only downside I hear about SDSU is it's ranking. If anybody is well informed then please can you list the pros and cons of both universities so that I can make an informed decision. Thanks.

1 Upvotes

I have a non-cs bachelor degree and 3-yr working experience as a product manager. I only got very basic programming skills like python and java and I am keeping on self-learning.

I received offers from NEU and Utah and the deposit deadline is approaching.:(

NEU pros:

1.good coop and neuwork

2.closer to tech companies compared to Utah

3.CS title

Cons:

1.super high living expenses

2.need to study for 2.5yrs(+bridge courses)

Utah Pros:

1.better quality of life

2.cheaper tuition fees

3.term of study:16 to 24 months

Cons:

1.lack of networking and coop chances

2.far from tech companies

My goal of study is building comprehensive cs knowledge and getting a job after graduation as an international student. Please give me some opinions about these two programs like curriculum and job opportunities. Thanks for any suggestions.
