No interview. Area: Robotics

Bummer... Sort of nice to see more qualified people also get rejected. To the person below, I doubt that they'll admit no one.

Looks like Cornell MAE Ph.D. program admit nobody for this year. They used to send out all admission on feb 1st but this year I saw none. Undergrad and master from top 10 program in US, undergrad GPA 3.98, master GPA 4.0, several patents, full-time work experience. Really disappointed about the result.

Kinda expected since my research experience did not fit with the faculty members of Cornell. Good luck to those admitted.

:( second rejection

lol.

I'm sorry to inform you that you will not be offered admission to the Cornell University's Ph.D. program for Fall 2020. We are able to admit only about 15% of our applicant pool in the combined fields of Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering and Theoretical and Applied Mechanics.While recognizing that we must deny many qualified applicants, the faculty endeavors to choose applicants they feel are the most appropriate match for our program. We wish you the best with whatever next year brings.

The reason is vague: ' Though your plans cannot be accommodated at Northwestern University, the faculty and administrators of The Graduate School respect your intellectual ambition and wish you success in attaining your goal of advanced study.'

GRAD 20 Could've just been a glitch in the system, likely doesn't mean anything.

Status Changed from Grad 20 to Submitted in the last day. (This is bad if yours did too, because my application was not strong)

Did anyone get an update for PhD in Mech Engg? Expected results to come out on 5th Feb since they came out on 6th Feb in 2019 and 7th Feb in 2018.

Got accepted, but the letter is a bit cryptic, they say nothing about funding (whereas Michigan was very clear about it). I have an interview later today so will let you know about what I found out.

Status changed from "update pending" to "denied" in a day. all the best to others. was my dream college though.

Applied for PhD accepted for non-thesis Masters, however, they may still review my file for PhD and funding.
