x13LadeZx Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Also how often will they reimburse you for your travel expense to open house? They usually reimburse if its for PhD. Less so for MS students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuschu Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 how do you know they sent out acceptances. I'm pretty positive they have not. Â Really?? I just saw two posts at the results search and became really depressed afterwards. I hope they haven't sent them yet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyroknife Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Really?? I just saw two posts at the results search and became really depressed afterwards. I hope they haven't sent them yet.. I believe so, not positive. I'm an undergrad at Princeton, but I didn't apply to the grad program. I'm pretty sure the acceptances are sent out in bulk and sometime next week. Besides, I'm under the impression there's a lot of BSing going on on the results page for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MathMonster1108 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Any updates from other schools folks?  I have been briefly speaking with my POI at Duke MEMS and she said "the committee is pretty tight lipped until the end of FEB." which is sad and I am not a huge fan of waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clandry Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 For those going to Cornell's visit day, I'm curious to see what you guys think of Sibley. I've been told that the program has been slightly declining the past few years due to some of the renowned profs retiring/about to retire (e.g., Pope) and being replaced by new ones, who don't seem to be producing that much research output...

x13LadeZx Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 No word from Berkeley yet. But I just got into UCLA! I had a mini freak-out when they said they were missing my official transcripts the day they started sending out acceptances. Anybody else who got in know if they are having a visit day? The email didn't mention anything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechE2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Visit day is going to be on the 7th of March. I got an email from Angie Castillo last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall2014_applicant Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I was invited to the UCLA visit day as well but it does not mention whether the travel expense will be covered. It looks like visitors must pay out of their pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechE2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yeah I believe so too. Fortunately for me, I live in LA so it's not bad at all for me, but I can see where this could be an issue. I certainly wouldn't attend if I was OOS and had to cover the costs of travel and lodging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x13LadeZx Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 why is every school having their visiting weekend on March 7th... I had to turn down two schools already cause they were both on the 7th and I already committed to USC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
