Had an interview with 2 POIs in Jan. Felt that the interview went quite well and surprisingly got rejected. Was gonna reject the offer anyway as I already received better acceptances.

MS GPA: 3.88/4.00. 4 IEEE transactions and 2 IEEE conference papers published, 2 additional IEEE transactions under review at the time of application. 4+ years of research experience (2 years at MSc level 2+ years with research centers in the academia and industry). Track is power systems. Truth be told, most of the professors in these schools never had profiles like this even after their PhD, so its not unexpected that they'll value more irrelevances such as where you did your undergrad, who your letter writers are and your nationality. Thankfully, I have offers from schools like Georgia tech, so I'm not really perturbed. However, the classical madness that has become order of the day in grad school admission process just has to stop!

Strong LOR's, 1 Publication.

If anyone here decides not to attend the program please let them know ahead of the deadline! - Hopeful waitlist

Will remain on the waitlist.

Was expecting as most of the decisions came last month. Also, I was going to reject as I have better offers anyway. Congratulations to all who made the cut.

One MS publication, lots of community service, national lab research experience.

Expected as almost all acceptances came out a month ago. Nano/photonics track.

Reject. Track: Biosystems - Neuroengineering

Waitlisted originally on 1/25 then rejected after admissions committee made final decisions.

With full funding package.

Offered MS instead

I don't know why Gmail classified the offer as Promotions... checked the portal first and saw the decision, was confused at first until I found the email.

Did anyone receive an offer from PI ML? Thanks
