BSc from Tecnológico de Monterrey, 2 LoR from Tec de Monterrey professors, mid SoP, 1 internship, 2 years as undergrad research assistant, no ESOP, no GRE. Robotics and autonomous vehicle's background.

I come from Polytechnic of Turin, currently at my third year for Mechanical Eng. Other than obtaining almost always maximum marks, I also participated to a merit-based course called "Intraprendenti", with some extra-curricular programs and activities. Normal letters of recommendation (I suppose), good motivation letter. I applied for ESOP, wrote a good Pre-proposal. Got Rejected from ESOP. I have no internship experience, nor do I have research activities other than the thesis I'm writing.

Top 2% in bachelor's program, three strong letters of recommendation, decent motivation statement, two years of work experience, strong extracurricular activities and leadership roles. Came from a top 100-150 European university. (Also got into Msc Data Science and hence the repeating statement.)

Top German CS university, CS Major Top 3% out of 300. 6 semesters. 3 big industry experience. 1 tutor experience. Distinctive Thesis. 1 Strong 2 moderate recommendations

General rejection letter. I think the problem was that my background was a bit too engineering-ey for this course.

GPA 1.02/1.0 - BSc from University of Technology in Austria - 1 strong and 1 exceptional LoR - teaching experience

Please decline this offer (either in ethnomusicology, musicology, or composition track) as soon as possible if you had a better offer! I have been waitlisted for over a month and really hope to be admitted to UCB. Thank you!
