Have you been notified by the ECpE department of ISU abou the final decision?Mailed them several times but I haven't heard anything from them till now. I don't know if I am rejected or they haven't reviewed my application. Why they are taking such a long time. Please do keep posted. Thanks in advance.

To the poster below who was asked if he/she is still interested in ISU, this is their typical way, they ask you first to see if you have already accepted another offer or not. If you say you are still interested a professor will contact you to schedule an interview. If he/she finds your background interesting you will receive your offer letter within few days!!

E-mail asking if I'm still interested in ISU

I have received an email inquiring whether I am still interested to join the program or not!!!! That's odd!!! I don't know what does it mean.

Hi.... Have you heard any news from the department? It is almost 15th May ... This is not acceptable.... They are taking almost half of a year to make a decision... I think I just wasted $90 for my application....

I was interviewed about half month ago. However, there's no further notifications. I've contacted them but no response. Does anyone who received interviews get result from MSE?

I am tired of receiving nothing from ISU. Does anyone know what are they doing with their decisions ?

Accepted without funding. I am annoyed they took so long to make up their minds. I will decline it since I have already been accepted at Michigan State.

My area is electric power and energy systems but I still haven't received ANY response from them :(

To the poster inquires about Iowa State University, I was interviewed on March 26. After the interview, I did not hear back from them. So, I asked the POI about the result and he said that I am not selected for the offered RA position. They have not yet officially rejected me anyway!! I think that they want to mail the results using a carrier pigeon!!! :D My area of research is electric power and energy systems. Good Luck for you guy!

I called the ISU ece dept and the program, no one respond, it's been half year since I applied. I think a lot of applicants applied ISU have the same situation.

from Sharif University of Technology, 30000$ per year. viva mech 86...

I have already declined the offer... .

Rejected since my research is too focused

We were pleased to have received your application for admission to the graduate program in Electrical and Computer Engineering at ISU. Your application has been carefully reviewed along with its supporting documentation. We receive a large number of applications and can only offer admission to 5-10% of the applicants. I am sorry to inform you that your application was not among those selected by our admissions committee. We suggest that you look to other educational institutions for pursuing further graduate work. If you wish to apply to our department for a future semester, your application will be reconsidered only if you have attended school or retaken GRE since your original application. An updated transcript and the new GRE scores are required.

T_T 木有学校爱我么…… P.S. What happended to VT and Pitt? It's almost 415!!! 求Offer，sincerely >_

Re Iowa state admission : I got an email from director of graduate education (ECE) containing an admission letter to be signed to accept the offer. Aslo, I was told that I will recieve official notification from the graduate admission office shortly... .

To the student who has been accepted to Iowa state University from Sharif. Did you receive your admission from Admission Committee officially, or receive it from a professor ? I think that they announce the decisions via postal mail.
