Electrical And Computer Engineering, Massachusetts Institute Of Technology Standard Rejection Email. Mentioned below: Hello! I write to inform you that our review of all applications received for our PhD program is now final. I am very sorry that we are unable to admit you this year. We receive hundreds, thousands of excellent applications from outstanding candidates who will undoubtedly make amazing and important contributions to science, engineering and technology. Importantly, we work hard to only admit candidates for the projects that are available, and hence the number is quite limited. I understand this comment does not diminish the disappointment; I am sorry. I thank you once again for considering our PhD program for your educational plans and to help you to achieve your career goals. I wish you the very best in all of your future endeavors. Sincerely, Professor XXXX Chair, EECS Graduate Admissions EECS at MIT

Aerospace Engineering, Massachusetts Institute Of Technology Comparing the profiles of the people who got accepted and those that got rejected, the accepted are orders of magnitude underqualified. This school picks purely based on connections, other factors unrelated to aerospace engineering research, and mainly luck. Being rejected has nothing to do with qualifications at this point, and adding more experience, papers, and relevant research / work experience won't help you. Applying continuously and possibly getting MIT prof rec letters somehow is the only way. If you look on one of the MIT linkedin pages, they are actively promoting students that showed "resilience" by applying to AeroAstro more than 7 times... this is not normal

Aerospace Engineering, Massachusetts Institute Of Technology MIT is interested in military students and industry partnerships with commercial space. No one will come out and say it but if you don’t fall into one of those two categories, your chances of acceptance are almost 0.
