Notes
Applied for MS/PhD, a reject was long time coming. If it's true that they only consider their "strongest" PhD candidates for MS, like someone mentioned they got a mail stating the same yesterday, they should mention as such on their website. My whole application was based on the promise that my application will be properly evaluated for MS; that certainly didn't happen. This is conning of the highest level if you are going to be spreading misinformation about how your application process works. Their website seems to suggest that as long as you submit your GRE scores, your application will be given a good look for MS.
