Mechanical Engineering Graduate School Admission Results

Self funded, 3 years experience, strong SOP

To the poster below, I spoke with a prof on Thursday 3/2 and he stated they haven't finalized many (if any) of the admission decisions yet. No need to worry quite yet

Email to check website

Ask for financial provement within 30 days, after that, provide offer

Received an email from megradapps@purdue.edu on 01/27 and got an official email from Purdue University Graduate School on 02/06. One recommender is a Purdue alumni. I guess that helped.

I had an academic interview and it went well. Waiting for the personal one.

So far I've had 1 official (TAMU) and 3 implicit (Gatech, CMU, Vanderbilt) rejections. For the rejection from TAMU, they notified me the decision even before all my recommenders finished submitting their letters. It's like they really hated me. I guess it was probably because I declined their offer to me 5 years ago for a Master's. Lol...I still haven't heard a word from UIUC and Purdue and assume that I've been rejected too. And for those of you waiting for Oregon State, I was told that their graduate admission committee had yet started reviewing applications...

I had applied after the 15th December deadline so no funding. Gutted. I had one international conference publication, one national level. Fluid Mechanics - Area of Interest.

Yaga!!! I'm elated!!!

Got an email saying Congratulations for your admission into the program, then after scrolling down I find out that it's only for the Master's in ME program, and not the PhD. It said there wasn't a lot of funding resources for PhD students. Starting to fret, because I have only one more school to hear back from and I thought this one would be an easy admit.

You should, however, consider this as your official notification that your application to Oregon State University has not been accepted. You may have already been advised of your denial, and if this is the case, please excuse this duplication.

wtf,
