  1. Congratulations @mkh1991! I think the explanation does make sense. I got something like though you have stellar academic records, it seems that what you said in your SOP is not in alignment with the program offers. By the way, I said that I would pursue a PhD in technology and policy after the MS. I guess this is what Ed refers to. Actually, based on what Ed said many qualified people like me were rejected this year because of similar reasons. I guess too many high calibre applicants go for TPP this year. Anyways, I will go to Princeton in the end. Good luck to ppl like mkh1991 on the waitlists! Let us share your happiness once you get in.
  2. I got an explanation from Ed.
  3. The same here, I guess everyone gets the same format. I don't trust MIT anymore. They just wasted our time and let us wait.
  4. @Vympel what are your backup options?
  5. I applied to PhD in Structural Engineering but offered an admission to MS. Anyways, I will make a decision based on whether they would fund me or not. Any news updated Vympel?
  6. Finally, I was rejected by MIT but admitted to Stanford at the same day. Well, pretty sad.
  7. I have similar feeling as well. I guess Ed himself doesn't have the results yet and thus he is not able to tell an exact date sending out the notifications. Well, anyways, I am ready to go to NJ. Let's pray to get the result tmr no matter good or bad. I don't want the waiting to torture me anymore.
  8. Received a message from Ed' I am hoping that the last of our notifications will be going out either today or Monday. Thank you so much for your patience.'
  9. @wabisabi Thanks. But its just weird I haven't heard from MIT for so long. anyways, good luck to you with Harvard applications. In fact, CMU is not a bad option esp with full funding.
  10. Any news updated guys? did you call Ed to ask when the result would go out?
  11. @wabisabi Did you apply for MIT's master or PhD? I am still waiting for the MIT's result.
  12. @Archiekins I hope at least some of us can get in eventually. Ed didn't reply to any letters these days but he did tell me that they will send out notifications by the end of Feb and today is the last day of his promise. So let's see if magic thing might happen today. As for Princeton, it is a simply a 'yes'. the professor asks me many times to make a decision as soon as possible because many guys are stillon the waitlist. As you may know, Princeton is almost the most selective institution (don't know if MIT has a lower admission rate). But anyways, I will go for TPP if I am luckily get into there.
  13. Nope, notIng here. I don't know what Ed is busy with these days but he just simply didn't reply any letters. Just search him in facebook 'Edward Ballo' and leave a message there. The waiting is killing me as well. I am not be able to 100% focus on my thesis and research project.
  14. @Vympel, I think your guess is correct. Actually, I am just worried because both Ed and Prof. D. Newman don't reply any e-mail. I think the final results will be sent out this week (Ed said last week of this month). Let's see what happens. Wish everyone waiting for TPP good luck!
  15. Seems that we are going to receive rej next week. I may have to head to Princeton anyways.
