I completed my interview on Feb 18 and received the decision on March 4. I wish they could provide more specific feedback for the interview.

:(

Please ignore the waitlist. Does anyone hear back from Master of Engineering in Climate, Environment & Sustainability yet?

Two summer internships, one semester internship, all in the related fields, strong recommendation letters, strong SOP

Dear {MyName}: Thank you for your interest in the Aeronautics and Astronautics graduate program at MIT. You clearly have many strengths, but unfortunately we cannot offer you admission to our department at this time. Our committee selects from a large and talented pool of applicants each year (this year fewer than 8% of applicants were admitted), and we are truly sorry that we cannot extend to you, and many other strong students, the invitation to study with us for September 2022. We wish you much success as you take the next steps in your studies and your career. Sincerely, Graduate Admissions Committee Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics MIT

Expected as much. No interview.

Two years of related research experience, no publications, 3.1 GPA, but had great support from PI.

No GRE, 4.0, First author paper, 3 yrs TA, 3 yrs Research. Top 10 undergrad school. Applied Mid-November. Congrats to everyone who got in!

Rejection Email: Thank you for your application to the graduate program in Media Arts and Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for Fall 2022. We regret that we are not able to offer you admission. We received more than 900 applications and were able to admit less than 3%. In selecting so few from a large and talented group, we must turn down many qualified applicants. We wish you the best for your future plans.
