I wonder if they offered admission to anyone! No acceptance post yet. Ridiculous review process

Everybody seems to be wait-listed!

I was in contact with the professor even before I submitted my application. MS GPA. 4.5/4.5 | 1 Journal Publication, 1 Under Review | 3 conferences | Several machine learning and programming courses from Coursera

Notified by email to check status on admission portal. It seems, they are giving wait list to everyone in engineering.

Have anyone received any decision from Mechanical engineering department of University of Delaware for PhD? Previous years, they sent the decisions by this time. But no decision has been posted yet this year.

Good GPA from top physics undergrad program, no conferences/publications but good research experience.

TTPB: Yeah, we are hopeful :)). Could you plz share your profile? GPA, experience, etc. Tnx.

TTPB: No interview. I submitted on Dec 1. I thought I would be rejected. So hang in there. Good luck!

Has anyone heard back from Prof. Jorns? I recently interviewed and the waiting game has been rough.

No word on funding or adviser.

Did anyone hear from Prof. Karthik Duraisamy, Prof. Joaquim RRA Martins, and Prof. Fidkowski?

TTPB: who were you interviewed by? Can you please let us know your field and sub-field?

12/20/19 Application is currently considered complete 12/28/19 Got an email saying my application is under review and the decision will soon be made. Many thanks and good luck all.

I took a bit of an unconventional path in my academic career. I graduated high school in 2001, and joined the air force shortly after the 9/11 attacks. I flew an F-35 for 13 years, frequently dealing with very practical technical issues. I know this doesn't give me the "theoretical" background that an aerospace engineer should have, but I definitely know the ins and outs of aircraft pretty f**king well. I then completed my Bachelor's and Master's in Aerospace Engineering at Harvard, graduating with a 3.92 GPA, and publishing 3 papers (2 first author, 1 second author) related to stability and control. Clearly, MIT values "theory" more than real world experience cause I sure as hell know wayyyyy more about how to actually operate aircraft than any of those snobby, couch potato, ad com faculty members. Also doesn't help that I'm in my 30's I suppose. I'm really going to miss Boston...

TTPB who got an interview on Feb. 4 and who is interested in fluids. Can you share your profile if possible like publications, univ, etc if possible?
