Graduate School Admission Results

5 rejections

To the 4 pointer below. Dont lose hope. MIT Grad Admissions are the most random things on earth. There are other good colleges, which are not so random. Apply there. Its MIT's loss, not yours.

Emailed them today.

I had emailed the grad app dept regarding my result. They emailed and said that a "letter" was sent last week and will reach me later this week.

I'm strongly suspicious my application package is not reviewed by any professor. 3 IEEE trans. and 5 conference paper (not NIPS/ICML, but still good conference), GPA: 4.0, rank: 1/121, one best student paper award, Meritorious Winner of MCM, ...... still rejected...... What are they looking for??? MIT is downgrade itself. I will go to Cambridge anyway. Good luck guys, go another good place and produce excellent work to prove you are better than MIT students. Bless all rejected students from MIT.

One more victim of brutal reject spree of MIT...wat 2 say?

I really don't know what to say. I have a 4/4 GPA. 12 Publications. I am ranked 1st in a dept of 131. TOEFL score of 112. Very strong Letters of Recommendations from the Professors. I really don't know where I went wrong. Feeling totally devastated...The world seems so empty. Don't feel like living anymore

I also graduated at the top of my class, with first author publications. Rejection always hurts, regardless of how much you prepare for it. My advice to my fellow rejects is to get your masters somewhere else then re-apply later with a stronger portfolio, and don't lose heart!

Website has been updated - logged in and first screen had my reject notice... good luck all.

Hust visited the website. I was expecting it, but still hurts :(. well anyway...

as expected

as expected

had to logon and get it myself - no email notification. ummm.... i want my money back?

oh well ... one rejection per day keeps the doctor away

I bet on my life and now, I have no idea why should I stay alive anymore after this reject.

i feel relieved...i have no questions in my mind to accept other schools now.
