Has anyone been rejected yet? It seems like a longer gap than in the past between early admission (presumably PIs with funding) and rejection letters. |

mAn international applicant here. To everyone who is wondering about the result of MIT application, I called the department today and the person said that they haven't sent out any letters yet and are going to send out all the letters by the end of tomorrow. Fingers crossed! |

When I applied I didn't realize MIT has so few pure math grad students, and I'm definitely not a good enough applicant to be one of them. |

To the MIT CEE posters below: Sorry for the late reply. I got unofficial acceptance from the professor through email on Feb 10, and received official admission letter (M.Sc. first, then continue to pursue Ph.D. upon passing qualifying exams) from the CEE department through email on Feb 15. Nothing have changed in my admission portal. Best luck to everyone! |
