Interview request from POI

PI emailed to schedule interview

With 15K Scholarship

Got an interview mail from one of the POIs

To the poster below: Congrats! When did you apply? Any words on funding? Did you submit GRE and TOEFL as well?

To the enquiry below, thanks. My area of research interest as per my application was cybersecurity of power systems network.

2 sci papers and some experiences

several papers of international conferences and 5 year industrial experience

1 IEEE paper, several papers of international conference and 5 year industrial experience.

One of the profs not mentioned in the application reached out for scheduling an interview in the coming 2 weeks.

Han interview in mid November with PoIs mentioned in SOP. Was extended an offer afterwards, but I told them to give me till February to get my decision across. If I decide to take up the offer, admission letter will come then. Best wishes to everyone out there. As a form of encouragement, I applied to 13 PhDs, including NYU, last year and got rejected in all. This year, I also applied to 13 and had/have 2 interviews already. So if you're rejected at the end of this admission cycle, don't give up, rather, try again by improving upon the flaws in your application. You'll see more of my post as other decisions come out, and I'll share the tips that aided my application this time around. Best luck to everyone!

Mail from PoI that I've been in contact with prior to application for a chat (LOL) next week. I was made to know that application review started very recently. Submitted application around Mid October, and all recommendation letters by end of October.

Have contacted before submission
