- Profile- gre-315 (not reqd), M.Ed- India, MS IT- Texas, BS- India, 12 yrs work ex, 40 pub, 400 plus citations I inquired about admission to Prof. Huang & assistant Breana in July and I got a positive reply from Huang. Submitted my application in Nov for Dec 1 deadline though Breana didn’t process my application till Dec 15 even after repetitive emails. In the meantime I also emailed my POI Tiffany A Koszalka, who gave me typical reply of all faculty evaluating process, no interest was shown. On Jan 28 I emailed Huang & Breana, off which Breana replied immediately noting a decision will be made on 15 feb, just after 4 hours I received a rejection notification. Next day Huang replied saying the application is still under review. I escalated the issue to the dean and after nobody has replied. I came to know from other students that they only prefer their masters students and external students are only invited to inflate the application numbers. I unnecessarily lost my application fee.
