Stanford University	Aerospace Engineering, PhD (F20)	Rejected via Website on 25 Mar 2020 Undergrad GPA: 3.98 GRE General (V/Q/W): 0/170/0.00 GRE Subject: n/a ♦	U	25 Mar 2020	Expected. Stanford AAE website did said the majority of Ph.D. offers would be granted to Stanford BS and MS students. Only few Ph.D. admits will be offered to non-Stanford students. The take-away is that, unless you have a very very strong background (near-perfect GPA/GRE, multiple papers from top conference/journal, and solid work experience), please don't waste $145 for the application. In addition, the admission is mainly managed by a committee so emailing POI seems help little. I will accept offers from other top school, Bye Stanford ~
