To the poster below, what is your area? who is your POI mate?

To the query below. Actually, they did send acceptance notice. I have received mine with fellowship offer on February 22.

I don't understand this. The professors and labs that I was interested in had clear instructions that " do not email, get admitted, then contact" (not just UCLA). Now, I still did not get a single admit from the schools that I was hoping to get into. How does this work? I could not apply earlier in the cycle because of my work and school pressure, now look where it got me. I really can't take this anymore.

guys, please wait until 15 March, I know that the results are coming. don't worry.

Area of interest: Robotics; no publications. Not too surprised

I contacted the prof. via email last month and he thought my ME background is very appropriate to his work. Thus, he decided to hire me without interview and indicated that TA would be provided for the first year. I think the key point is the great match between my work experience and his research topic.

First decision.

To the ECE Phd admit poster below: Did you have an interview or any interaction with the POI? Can you share your profile please. What about funding?

So I've asked the admissions if everyone who is to be accepted received an unofficial admission email. They replied, "EE applications are still being reviewed". Good luck to everyone still waiting.

Have not had any contact from UCSB, I wonder if this means I may be rejected?

To the poster below asking for area - my focus is Neuroengineering.

Area: Comm and Signal Processing, Had interview with POI, got official mail few days back, but no info about funding. Anyone has got info about funding?

Unofficial "Recommendation for Admission" message contained in Open House Invite email this morning.

Dear all American admitts. when is the recruitment event?
