Email from Grad Secretary

Canadian PR. Undergrad from UBC. Year of research + published paper with professor in the department.

Have an engineering background but did two research internships at a reputed research institute.

POI emailed me and offered acceptance to the M.A. program instead.

Amazing letters and a lot of unique extracurriculars, also 1.5 years research. Got an email today from a prof I mentioned in my statements offering me a spot in her lab. First acceptance, super pumped!

First interview! So excited!

Was offered to join the MA program instead of PhD. POI said the transition to PhD is smooth and can be done after one year in MA program.

Hi. Thank you. PGRE- 920, 3 publications (hep-th and cmt). Engineering major.

Unofficial email. Told me I will receive an official email soon.

Official invite from POI. Interview date 2/1

3.70 Undergrad GPA, 3.80 Science GPA, 4.00 GPA in my final 2 years (primarily graduate level and writing intensive, research-based coursework). Will graduate with departmental and highest honors. Five research experiences, three occurring at my small home university, two occurring at a top-ten program. Currently working as a full-time researcher at the top-ten university. Many presentations and extracurriculars, including being a 2x chem club president which achieved ACS recognition both years, and I am finishing up my honors thesis. Will receive authorship on a future publication detailing some of my work. Did okay on the general GRE. 4 great LORs from current and past research advisors. The application process is a true mystery and there is no real formula for success. Congratulations to those who were accepted, and good luck to everyone in the coming months.
