"Congratulations! On behalf of the INI Admissions Committee, I am pleased to inform you of your admission into the Information Networking Institute (INI)'s MS in Information Networking - Advanced Study for the Fall 2023 term. Please use this time between now and the deposit deadline on April 15th to research your program and make an informed decision. We encourage you to reach out to us with any questions and participate in our admitted student events. " They also have a weird incentive to accept early "For students who are ready to make their enrollment decision NOW and submit the online decision notification form by April 1st, we will offer you $500 toward your tuition at the start of the Fall semester. This is separate from any INI funding offers you might receive. All students will receive INI funding notification in early March."

From 3 IIT. Non-cs major with a minor in ML and applications. Have around 1.5-2 years of research experience in NLP. Have a paper accepted at ACL and another workshop paper at EMNLP. Also, 1.5 years of work experience as SDE at a top cloud MNC. I don't know what the committee wants. Why do they give GPA so much weightage? :-C

TA in several theoretical CS subjects; Research Thesis; 1-year working experience as data scientist (analytics + a bit ML)

No pubs might be the issue for rejection. UWM took 60-70 out of 1900
