Graduate School Admission Results

Instructed to check portal via email. Deep down was expecting this but was really hoping to attend.

Got rejected from the PhD and accepted here with a scholarship

3.35 in my MS. This cycle has been a brutal one with all the massive federal funding cuts. My situation is pretty abnormal as I am not requesting funding and will be doing my Ph.D part time which I think really boosted my chances of being accepted. I wouldn’t use my experience as a standard.

No email or call, checked website. U.S./E.U. bi-national applicant with undergrad from U.S. (applied using E.U. address/informaiton). No GRE, theory subfield. If I receive an offer, I will decline as I have already accepted a full ride PhD offer from UMass Amherst.

They said I was a top tier applicant but they rejected me

Received acceptance email from program director. Waiting on other results and will probably end up declining.

I was contacted by the program director about me being on the waitlist. But it has been radio silent since then. I have reached the point of giving up, I haven't seen anyone who has received an acceptance, rejection or waitlist from this uni so....

No GRE, focus on theory, 60% tuition scholarship. For anyone waitlisted: I have already declined the offer, as I am accepting my full ride MA+PhD offer from UMass Amherst. Good luck to everyone!

Human geography track

Wasn't expecting to get in, I had a decent GPA but not Stanford level. Compared to the rest of the Music Technology programs I applied to, Stanford was the least focused on projects/work experience I had outside of college (I think they really only cared about grades and research papers, which is fine, this is for future applicants to take note). Unlike the other programs (NYU, GATech, UMiami), I couldn't get in contact with any Stanford professors associated with the lab that I was interested in. I've had a few years in the industry after getting an undergraduate degree in Music Technology.
