Graduate School Admission Results

I interviewed on skype Feb 17th and the letter was posted Feb 28th

Ohkay.

Just received the e-mail. Applied for MSc. Mechanical Engineering.

I think the reason I was rejected was cos my POI has apparently decided to retire and not take on any more students. Such a bummer.

Ahhhh sweet tears of relief! 3.9 post bacc, research and loads of volunteer experience. My THIRD time applying! Never surrender your dreams

Poster below, you checked the decision on online application site? I havent taken any response from Upenn yet

"you have the option to enroll in our Masters program. Given your credentials, we would expect you to enroll in the first-year PhD courses, and take the prelims in the summer (in 2015), and if you pass both prelims with at least a B average in the first-year micro, macro, and econometrics courses, you could then transfer to the PhD program. We would not offer funding in the first year (and the university does not allow us to grant tuition waivers), but if you do succeed in transferring to the PhD program, you would have guaranteed funding for years 2-4."

email to check website. hep-th

Notified via email, no word on funding

I don't live in the States but they still called me! Thrilled ;)

Anyone heard anything yet?
