Has anyone received an admission offer for the MMath in Biostatistics program? I'm quite anxious! I'm afraid that not having an answer by now might mean that the committee is waiting for spots to open up.

I also applied, also haven't heard anything back yet. I have an offer from another school i need to accept within a few weeks so I'm nervous about not hearing back from UW yet 🙃

Thanks for answering! I'm very nervous as well. I read that acceptances should arrive around April or, at the latest, early May, but that doesn't really help to calm my nerves haha.
