OR_Dan Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Hello OR_Dan, How beneficial is it to make such University visits? To get in, I'd guess not at all. But since I'm going to the US I'd like to visit some university where I get an admit (hoping I get at least one) to get a feel of the town, the campus etc. before moving there for 5 years, which I think could be abig help in preparing for that.

OR_Dan Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Did anyone hear from Berkeley IEOR dept? When are they supposed to inform us? Further I was just wondering, how many admits/waitlists are done every season? (since it is a very small dept at Berk.) Last year they sent them out thursday the second week of February. That would be today. But who knows if they kept the same schedulle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNewb Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Based on your previous post, I guess you might have received the acceptance letter, right? No. I have not received anything but rejections so far. I only know people who received the email last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyp Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 No. I have not received anything but rejections so far. I only know people who received the email last week. I see... I have not heard back from them either... Most likely I will get the rejection in next week. Good luck~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sylvia2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 just received the campus vist invitation from Berkeley IEOR. The email said "The Department of IEOR is recommending you at the Graduate Division for admission to our program." no words on funding. I suppose I am admitted to MS/PHD program (the one I applied to). Anyone else got the same news? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORLOGIC Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Is there any news from UM-Ann Arbor (PhD) ?? It seems that their decision is a little bit delayed than last year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IEOR_ALB Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I don't know if they've sent out admits yet, but their recruitment weekend starts today. Is there any news from UM-Ann Arbor (PhD) ??

moonshadow Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Is there any news from UM-Ann Arbor (PhD) ?? It seems that their decision is a little bit delayed than last year... Yeah, I got my reject yesterday. Kinda surprised they dinged me so early! wonder what turned them off so quick. I'm guessing this means everyone who hasn't hear are on wait lists or will eventually get admits. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
