I don't really understand how 1 year Master's programs work? We have to take all this coursework AND commit to research as well? It sounds intense. I accepted Berkeley. Their program is also 1 year (9 months if you decide not to TA). The typical masters coursework is 5 courses if I am not mistaken right? Also, where are you finally headed? CMU?

Well it is 9 months if you decide not to TA. Otherwise, you'll need the summer too! I accepted the offer. I had offers from UIUC and UofT too. I also had rejections from MIT and Stanford.

I have acceptance from UC Berkley, and their Masters program (in Structures) is 2-3 semesters too. I am actually happy though , since this is my last degree. It means I can get it sooner!

Thanks! Yea, I am probably going for Berkley (even though I am still waiting for Stanford). After having the coldest winter of my life, I can't say no to California's weather.

I got accepted to University of Illinois at UC for MS but no funding. Acceptances are: - Berkley, MS - University of Toronto, MASc Rejections: - MIT, MS

I was born in Iran but I have lived in Canada for most of my life. 14 universities? Wow that's expensive. I applied to 5.

Nice nice. I did my Bachelors at University of Toronto. We got a lot of people from Iran. Mostly from SUT though. Most of my TA's were from SUT (surprisingly). I think after the Chinese, Iranian's have the largest presence in engineering graduate degrees. If you can take the cold, you should apply for UofT. They are pretty good in their acceptance of Iranians (we have good record here).

Congrats. By the way, are you applying from SUT?

Haha, better than I thought!

Yea, I got an email on that too. This sucks. What is the tuition for MS in Civil Engineering for internationals? Do you happen to know?

Same here. Have you received your financial infos? I am still waiting on them...

Did they officially announce that they were not funding you at UC Berkeley? Or they just didn't talk about it? Because I have gotten an admission, but have not heard anything about funding? They said in their admission letter that decisions on fundings will follow up in another email. So should I be disappointed? Or do I have hopes of receiving funding?

Thanks! You too!

Same here...

Thanks! The Grad Cafe Admission Results site, shows people who are accepted on the 28th of February. Are you sure?
