University Of Texas At Austin	Mechanical Engineering, PhD (F20)	Accepted via Website on 17 Mar 2020		23 Mar 2020	Hi, thanks a lot! What about the funding situation. Will they give a TA directly?
University Of Texas At Austin	Mechanical Engineering, PhD (F20)	Accepted via Website on 21 Feb 2020	I	23 Mar 2020	TTPB, I was in the same situation a month ago and the letter from the department took about 2 weeks to come, though from what I understand they are usually much quicker but for some reason took some time in my case.
University Of Texas At Austin	Mechanical Engineering, PhD (F20)	Accepted via E-mail on 16 Mar 2020	I	23 Mar 2020	I received the email to check the portal. Got the admission letter. No words about the funding. Haven't received the letter from the department. Does anyone have a similar condition? Thank you very much.

Stanford University	Mechanical Engineering, Masters (F20)	Accepted via E-mail on 19 Mar 2020	I	21 Mar 2020	Good GPA, 2 relevant internships and strong LORs. No publications though.
University Of California, Berkeley	Mechanical Engineering, PhD (F20)	Other via POST on 20 Mar 2020	I	20 Mar 2020	TTPB: I applied MS/Ph.D. I think Berkeley professors tend to hire someone they know before. Funding is a big problem though. If you have your own funding, you will have more chances.

University Of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC)	Mechanical Science And Engineering, PhD (F20)	Other via Other on 20 Mar 2020 Undergrad GPA: 3.68 GRE General (V/Q/W): 166/169/4.00 GRE Subject: n/a ♦	O	20 Mar 2020	TTPB: I'm from a non-USA university that offers a top-30 level MechE program (with BioE double major). Not good MechE major GPA (with one semester under 2.7), Quite good research records for an undergrad(one co-first authored paper at a top robotics conference, and 4 publications on international journals (but it's more about BioE)), Excellent LORs from undergrad research advisor and internship advisors. Never expected the offer because UIUC seemed to have a very traditional MechE research profile, while I fiddled a lot between MechE and BioE. Considering other people received offers a week early, seems I was kind of an edge case in the committee. 2A(Michigan Robotics MS :/)/7R/2P(unofficial waitlist), will probably take this offer.
