Computer Science Graduate School Admission Results

Finally! Received the eligibility notification for Fall 2021. Need to submit financial documents for official admission letter. No deadlines mentioned.

Rejected for their MPCS :'( . My GRE might have been too low. Would highly recommend prospective applicants with even slightly below average GPA to apply if they have a high GRE Quants( and work ex).

TTBP: SK is Srijan Kumar? Also Did you had an interview?

TTPB: Guys if you don't mind, would you kindly share your application date, undergrad univ, and profile?

TOEFL: 116, 3+ Years of Work Ex as a Data Scientist. Stoked!

Had an unofficial acceptance earlier from SK but got an official acceptance yesterday. IIT-D undergrad, 3 okay publications, good LORs

TTPB: One with an admit on 24th Feb, are you an international applicant or a US student?

This was an interview from the Caltech AI / ML virtual interview / visit day. I was told that decisions are expected to be made as soon as the beginning of next week.

Got the letter today. Decisions were supposed to be on 26th. Not sure if any mistake from the university. Hope it is!!!

International Student, Direct Ph.D.

TTPB: sorry to hear that, but where did you know the rejection? did you email the POI?

TTPB: I was the one recently accepted - POI initials are GF

TTPB: Can you share the initials of your POI?

Interviewed with POI 1st week of Feb, received an acceptance on 23rd with funding details: tuition, 22k CAD stipend per year. Seems too good to be true!

3.78 GPA, Strong letters of rec and personal statement, no gre needed

POI sent an email for interview on 15.02.2021. I already gave the interview on 23.02.2021. The POI will take the decision in 2 weeks. Research area is in computer vision. I already have a Masters degree and 1.5 year work experience (in an industry research lab) and 1 first-author paper in a top conference. I was genuinely surprised that the POI emailed because of the insane number of applications that MILA gets.

They said they cannot offer me a financial assistantship which to me translates to a polite rejection. But seriously, what is the purpose of giving admission if there is no funding?:))) what kind of idiot would go there do a Ph.D. and not even getting paid but pay them tuition too. It is hilarious.
