Notes
Prof. Kostas Papakonstantinou asked me to apply for admission three days before the deadline because I did not submit my application before. MS GPA 4.5/4.5. 2 Journal and 3 Conf. Pub. And several ML and programming courses from Coursera. He was already aware of my scores and GPA but still asked me to apply and now this!! wasted my 65 USD. Already accepted Iowa State and research work will be much more interesting than this.
