CGPA: 9.1/10 IELTS: 7.5 One Internship abroad, One year baja and a few certification courses from online platforms

Applied for PHD, withdrawed my application in Feb but heard no responses. Received admission for MS today and declined it immediately. Good luck for anyone who is waiting!

In the application I checked the box that says that if they are not able to offer admission for Ann Arbor, I would be considered for dearborn which I guess is easier to get into. Anyone knows how will the process be? I am worried that they will not send my application to dearborn

Saddened to hear On behalf of the Mechanical Engineering Graduate Admissions Committee at the University of Michigan, I regret to inform you that your application has not been selected for admission to our graduate program. Many factors are considered in our admission process. These include academic potential and scholarship, as well as the number of research openings within our faculty laboratories, and achieving a balance among areas of interest in the graduate student cohort. The University of Michigan is committed to recruiting a diverse, talented student body; please note that this admission decision was not impacted by changes to national immigration policy.

Shocked!!! Was a GPA 4.0 master student in Mechanical Engineering at Umich (Also undergrad from top USA engineering program, full-time work experience in top-notch company, several pubs and patents). Key takeaways from this application (advice for future Umich admits): 1. Do not trust the downgraded master offer (admit into master instead of phd) from the umich! The master admission offer may mention you can "transfer" (change of program) into the phd program during your master, but trust me, the "transfer" process would be identical in terms of difficulty as directly application. The selectivity for the master is around 20% so the school just wanna attract the CASH from the master admits's tuitions (tuition is extremely high considering Umich is a public school). The financial assistantship are very limited for master students. 2. You must contact and secure some POI (rich POI with funding) or high chance you will be rejected (the POI makes most decisions while admission committee makes very few). I will take phd offers from other top (higher ranking) engineering school. VERY disappointment in Michigan ! ! !

Well...it's been a while. Has anyone else heard back from the phd department for meam?

I attended GEARRS. Accepted with TA funding! So excited!!!

Applied to PhD and rejected, admitted to Master's

GRE - 324, GPA- 8.84/10 Tech lead in student team, intern in company in US, 1.5 years job exp in relevant field

MS/PhD too, didn't heard anything from the ME department yet, but i would assume a rejection since they were prefer direct PhD students in past couple years

Has anyone received any updates about the MS/PhD program? Until when will they be offering admits? I have mailed them multiple times but have not received any response.

Applied late November, accepted late Jan. I think as in most unis offers have been made and now they wait out the clock until their current offer holders reply to see where they stand with their waitlists.

TTPB: I emailed the department a week ago, they told me you have to wait until mid April for the results to come out. I too didn't hear from them since I submitted the application since late November, but in the application I checked the box that says that if they are unable to offer admission for ann arbor I would be considered for dearborn.

Guys if we haven't heard back from he program should we assume it reject?
