I guess CS/ML and robotics institute would make their decisions separately, right? I have replied to ask though.

sigh~

They found no compatibility of my research interests with those in the faculty!

First decision. Unexpected.

Generic acceptance mail from graduate admissions office. Have been asked to contact department for funding related informations.

second rejection email today

I think that is my 6th rejection in a row. Oh my... I didn't know I was THAT bad :P

Email from POI.

Generic Email. Dear Mr. X_X_X. I did not get the invitation of applying next year.

I recently had inquired about my application status and the response I received was that " I will hear shortly about the result of my application". Did anyone else get any response, if so please share.

Short form email.

Good school, especially for ML!

Adding to my post below... Wouldn't it be funny if they mistakenly rejected everyone from Ph.D. as the opposite of what they did for the Masters program? Maybe we will get some "Sorry, you actually were admitted..." emails later. Anyway, best of luck to all other applicants in all your decisions!

Interviewed by prof, it went well, and he said he would vouch for me. What ended up hurting me was that I couldn't guarantee that I would enroll if accepted (they give very few offers so they don't like to give out offers unless they think you will very likely accept).

3 years Robotics research experience, 3 publications and 1 more under review, 1 internship autonomous driving, 1 internship controls and AI at MIT, Mechanical Engineer with minor in CS. Perhaps my relatively weaker CS classwork held me back, so congrats to all who were accepted! Now deciding between USC, MIT, Virginia Tech, and Princeton for Robotics and Controls

rejected by robotic institute. fair enough, not actually a robotic person :)

Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering from a US school. 3 years of industry experience as a software developer, some teaching experience, no research.

Damn you, CMU !!!
