contacted to chat with faculty member about a week ago

Specializing in experimental AMO. Received acceptance email on 6:30 PM GMT (1:30 PM EST). No publications, but one in preparation. Worked with groups at NIST for three years. Contrary to what someone else said, CU Boulder is still in the process of sending out acceptances!

Funding to be determined by mid-March. Originally contacted 1/31 for Skype interview and campus visit.

To the students who are interviewed: Did the POI said when you will hear back a decision from CU?

I didn't expect to be accepted due to my not so perfect GPA and PGRE (and being an international). Experimental AMO, no publications, 3 conference posters, did not contact Boulder faculty beforehand. 2 strong ROLs out of 3 (Both were students of Nobel laureate related to AMO but the 3rd one is pretty weak). Research experiences (both AMO and non AMO) since my 1st year in uni.

Accepted w/ no funding offer. Have to go to their GEARRS event for that. Good GPA and GRE w/ 2 years research experience

Funding for 5 years, but students fees are not covered (~ $1000 each semester).

1 publication, 3.6 grad gpa, 4 years of astronomy research
