TTPB : What's your domain of research?

TTPB asking for a screenshot : "I admit it is not so easy to understand what comes first, but the selection period for Mila professors to select possible new students is over - as they make their selection before Feb. 1st for University of Montreal, and Jan. 15th for McGill. What remains possible before the next admission process is internship. I had to respond to you as well in that regard, and unfortunately, Prof. Bengio has reached the quota of students he can supervise for the next year. " These are the exact words.

I have one research paper published in an International conference. Bachelors from Tier 1 college. Average CGPA. Didn't expect this.

:(

GPA - 7.5/10 GRE - 329 Good Sop + Lors 2 decent projects in ML and NLP

I received Ph.D. admits from Princeton (unofficial via email from POI) and from NCSU official mail. Awaiting other results in the coming weeks. Planning to stay away from CMU's MLT program as I cannot bear CMUs tuition costs. That's all I know from the POI.

To the LTI poster below, could you share more light on the funding situation for MLT? I have heard that majority of MLT students get funding so it would be good to have more info if the situation is different this year.

TTPB: MLT CMU admit, can you tell from where you have other PhD admits? As I also got MLT admit and still waiting for other PhD results. Thanks!

To the poster below, what is your profile please? please update us if you have got funding

Graduated from a well reputed University in India. 2 yrs work ex.

PhDs itself this year will not have enough funds so I doubt whether MLT would get funding preference for this year. POI informed as I have other Ph.D. offers and now will consider that strongly instead of going through the MLT-PhD route at CMU.

UCLA math undergrad

3 years of solid work experience in the field of ML/AI/NLP. 1 tutorial-paper in the top-tier conference. Extremely dejected by the decision. Third rejection straight in a row. My CGPA sucks and I don't understand why it matters so much instead of relevant work ex.
