Had an interview 3 weeks ago and notified by PI, recommended for the RA position.

For those still waiting on Penn state decisions. I received this email message today. I hope it gives you some hope. Graduate program coordinator: The majority of applications for Fall 21 have not yet been decided, and I expect the admissions committee will finalize their decisions within the next week. You will receive an email from me once the committee has reviewed your application and made a decision.

To all my fellow TAMU ME PhD applicants - if you are still expecting decision from TAMU, it is a waste of time. From what I have heard, TAMU doesn't give admission unless a professor commits for funding. For professor to commit, you need to contact professor and he has to like your profile before applying. All of our money is lost in vein. Future applicants make sure you find a professor who agrees to fund you before you apply to the program. Ps:- This information is based on what I have heard from my friends. If you have solid proof that it is not true, respond.

Got a letter in the mail stating I was rejected from their master of engineering in mechanical engineering program. This was my safe choice, but in the end it worked out because I got accepted to my first choice program. Guess you can never know.

Declined acceptance.

Got admitted to their MSME professional masters program. I'm assuming its easy to get accepted because they made a decision within 3 weeks and it was over the holiday break as well.

Invited to the virtual event

1 full year of work experience as engineer after graduating with degrees in physics and economics

Mail to check portal. Official letter of acceptance at the portal together with enrollment conditions.

Got an email to check the portal. It was showing 'update pending'. It changed to denied today. Good luck who got accepted

TTPB: Use gradadm berkeley.edu -- include "Second Request" in the subject line for a reply, otherwise they don`t reply!

Anyone know the email address of Berkeley ME? They only have an online form which they never reply to. Or does anyone know how to contact them? Thanks.

Thank you for applying to the Mechanical Engineering Department at MIT and thank you for your patience during this lengthy admissions process. Unfortunately, we are unable to admit you to our graduate program. This year we received a record number of applicants, but we were only able to admit approximately 1 in 10. As a result, we had to turn away hundreds of highly-qualified applicants. We truly wish you well in your future endeavors.

The Mechanical Engineering Graduate Admissions Committee at Stanford University has conducted a thorough review of your Ph.D. application for the Autumn 21-22 quarter. I regret to inform you that you have not been granted admission. Our applicant pool was extremely competitive this year, and it is unfortunate that we are unable to admit all of the exceptional students who apply to our department. The process of selection is difficult and painstaking, and many strong candidates must be turned away each year. Please be assured, however, that your application received full consideration. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.

TTPB: No interview/reply after emailing 4 POIs. I think it is rare for a private university to offer admission without any interview... So maybe the rejection is on the way...

received letter from the general graduate school. still waiting to hear which lab i've been admitted to, or whether there'll be some sort of admitted students day

accepted for dynamics and controls

Does anybody know when are they going to announce the decisions for Ph.D. - Mechanical and Aerospace Department ?

I got an acceptance some time last week by email and on the portal. I had no prior contact with faculty and I haven't been contacted by anyone about funding, potential PIs, no orientation/virtual visit events, whatever.
