MSE CIS, got a mail to check the portal :)

mfks didn't even send an email, I went in to check and saw a rejection letter

No interview

Is the graduate school at umass lowell sleeping, or what, or they are not admitting students this year?

3 international papers, 2 research internships, 1-year full-time research job, working under a professor from UT-Austin for a year. Tier 2 college. Don't know anyone who got in.

NLP track, offered an interview for master instead

16 Publications (1 Q1 journal publication), three years of working experience, IELTS 6.5, Master of Engineering in Computer Engineering (Research Mode). I spoke with Professor, who said, "decision is given; wait for the mail from the university." However, rejected lastly. Never trust anyone except your luck for admission to US universities. I am confused and will never submit application to US universities. It's a waste of time and money.
