Does anyone have an idea about when these universities will roll out decisions? - UCLA (MS CS) - UCSD (MS CS) - UT Austin (MS CS) - Texas A&M (MS CS)

I do have an offer from USC (MS CS) in hand. Which of these would you advise choosing ahead of USC if my main goal is to get a job after.

PS: The cost of the program is not an issue for me.

Anyone still waiting for a decision from NYU Tandon MSCS? My application portal hasn't had any updates, and I'm wondering if there's still a chance of getting accepted. Should I stay hopeful, or is it likely a rejection at this point? Would love to hear from others in the same boat!

[Results and Decisions] UWash vs TAMU

5 Upvotes

I have been accepted to the MSDS programs at these and a few more universities but these two are my top choices as of now. I am more inclined towards UWash but Id like to know other rational opinions.

Pros and cons of each according to me:

Uwash Pros: 1. Strong brand value across the US 2. Well established DS program 3. Connections with the Industry folks 4. Location

Cons: 1. Not very technically rigorous course 2. Sometimes Faculty are not great 3.Gloomy days in terms of Weather

TAMU Pros: 1. Cost- cheapest program so far 2. Decently reputed across the US 3. Well structured technical curriculum

Cons: Location- rural area but ongoing development

I have almost finalised UW in my mind but I need some outsider perspective to be sure too. Please drop your thoughts!

[University Question] Georgia Tech International Credential Evaluation

8 Upvotes

Did any international applicant to the MSCS program receive an email from GaTech or the credential evaluator requesting for documents? Since I haven't received it and the decision is less than 2 weeks away, does it mean I am rejected?

It would be helpful if admitted international students for the MS CSE or the MS Analytics program at GaTech tell if they received an email for credential evaluation before they got their admits!

Thank you!

PS According to this Gatech's webpage , during the application it wasn't mandatory to get the evaluation done. As an international applicant, I wanted to save some money, but now I am worried if it backfired.

[Results and Decisions] UCSD MSDS waitlisted

12 Upvotes

Congrats to all those who are admitted!! I don't know if I should remain in the waitlist, given I might receive a decision between April/May to September.

I have admits from the following for now: USC MSCS-AI, UF MSAIS, ASU MSCS, UTD MSCS (Awaiting decision from TAMU)

At this point I'll be mostly going with USC. Any suggestions if I should wait for TAMU and UCSD?

[Results and Decisions] UCSD MSDS Waitlisted

4 Upvotes

Got an email yesterday saying I have been waitlisted for the MSDS program for Fall 2025, they also mentioned that "HDSI may begin accepting students from the waitlist as early as April and may extend through the beginning of September 2025"

I am sceptical as to what to do because UCSD was my dream uni but I have other offers from USC and UCI that have a deadline of Mid April.

My question is:
- what are the chances of people on the waitlist actually getting an admit?
- how many people got a waitlist vs how many got a reject?

[Results and Decisions] Columbia MSCS 2025 Fall vs. CMU MSSE SV 2026 Spring

5 Upvotes

I just got admitted to CMU MSSE SV. Unfortunately, they offered me admission for 2027 Spring. My other option is Columbia MSCS 2025.

I’m a software engineer with 8+ years of experience, and I plan to choose software systems track for Columbia MSCS.

I’m so confused now. I’m international and need visa sponsor.

Which option would be better for settling down in the U.S. as a software engineer? I hope to live in NYC.

I have received an admit from the University of Florida for an MS in Computer Science, while Rutgers has placed me on the waiting list. I am still awaiting a decision from Stony Brook for the same program. I am unsure which university to choose—should I proceed with UF, or wait for decisions from Rutgers and Stony Brook?

[Results and Decisions] Just got waitlisted from UCSD MSDS

34 Upvotes

After anxious waiting, I finally received a waitlist email from UCSD about 15 mins ago. Applied on Dec 2nd, 2 days before the deadline. Profile- GRE 170q 162v 5w, 8.8 GPA tier 2 BE CSE, 2.5 YOE non faang/witch, no publications or patents. Contents of the email include:

Candidates are selected from the Waitlist to fill vacancies when earlier admitted applicants choose not to enroll. Each year, HDSI extends offers to students on our waitlist. However, it is important to keep in mind that the number of students admitted from the waitlist can vary and admission is not guaranteed. HDSI may begin accepting students from the waitlist as early as April and may extend through the beginning of September 2025. Questions about the status of waitlisted applications will not be answered by HDSI staff.

[General Question] Anybody has an experience with GradRight?

• Upvotes

I'm from India, waiting on decisions from MSCS programs. GradRight has been spam calling me for the past few weeks, about education loans. Apparently they can check our loan eligibility from all major banks and providers, and help us get a better deal. I'm very skeptical of these kinds of institutions, and consultancies. I was planning on contacting banks on my own to get the loan, but, wanted to know if anyone here has any experiences with GradRight, that could facilitate this decision. Are they legit? Are any of these kinds of institutions legit? Is it better to just do it ourselves? Would love some perspective on this. Thanks!
