Shy101 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Hey Everyone, We have all finally (almost) finished applying and the admits have started coming in!! Please do share here if you have received a grad school admit, from which college, and when you received the notification email from them, so that everyone else can get an idea too! Also this would be a great way to find batch-mates! If you can share your profile too, it would be a plus!! Congratulations in advance!!

csphdapplicant123 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 People who have had acceptances/interviews at UCSD/Columbia, when did you apply? And what area of CS are you in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what area of CS are you in? I doubt the entry you're referring to was an official admittance. They probably just heard from a professor that wanted them in their lab. I'm not admitted to Columbia, but a professor did contact me. I talked to her on Thursday of last week and it went well. I also applied to UCSD but didn't hear anything... My areas of interest are in Machine Learning/Vision and Computational Biology. Shy101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at past results, UCSD seems to accept in waves. When did you apply to Columbia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And based on my discussion with said professor, I don't think there have been any official acceptances offered by I could be wrong... I submitted my application on December 3rd to answer your question. And I hope you're right about UCSD! What area are you interested in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmacha Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 UCSD does send out rolling based admissions. I remember seeing an email where they mention it. Also, I have seen a lot of "official" acceptances from UIUC. Could any of you guys share if the offers were direct or after an interview ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a direct offer (without any interview) from UIUC (CS PhD); my POI first contacted me informing me of my acceptance (I've worked with him before), and I got the email from them 2-3 days after.

gogogousa Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) I also applied for a PhD to Columbia (csphdapplicant123 and grump) but for now no news. However, I had interviews with TAustin, Michigan, UCI. Edited January 16, 2016 by gogogousa Shy101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robot_control Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Had an interaction/interview with PoI at UWashington yesterday (over phone). He said first batch of admits would be sent by this Friday (notified at the dept. level), and another batch would be done sometime around Feb 2nd week. Really nervous right now! He told me that he liked my application, and our interests match. But he didn't say outright "admit". Don't know how much to read into the conversation, but it is safe to assume that I will not get any sleep this week.

csphdapplicant123 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 People with acceptances to Berkeley, can you please share if you had interviews (when you had them), your gre scores, your publications, and what area you selected?
