Notes
2 first-author papers in a top peer-reviewed journal in Mechanical Engineering; MSc GPA: 3.76/4; graduating from the top-tier program in the country; TOEFL iBT: 105; the best master's thesis in the university; 4 years of work experience; 3 strong LORs; myriad academic projects; and proficiency in various software and programming languages; I received an admission letter in late March with full funding and decided not to wait for other universities' decisions. I accepted immediately for four reasons: a great advisor who is successful, ambitious, and kind; an exciting project from a top US company; a friendly campus environment with supportive individuals in the program; and a comprehensive funding package including stipend, insurance, and tuition. The stipend amounts to a minimum of about 28,000(pre−candidacy)/39,000 (once in candidacy). Thank God, my endeavors paid off;
