[Too soon to lose hope? Berkeley, UT Austin, Michigan, UC San Diego]

I'm still waiting for Michigan and UCSD. Hope I would hear good news like leofanxiong.

I'm still waiting for PhD application result from Michigan.

Thank you all for helpful information!

 

I got an email from Austin right now, indicating I'm rejected.

Still waiting for Berkeley, UCSD, and Michigan.

 

And now, I have sent an email to Berkeley asking about my status.

Hope they would give me a good news. (I know my chance is nearly zero.)

 

Any further information on Berkeley, UCSD and Michigan's PhD admissions would be highly appreciated.

Thank you for the clarification. It's very understandable that they have visit days at this time of the year.

 

Did you receive any notifications about waitlist? I'm starting to worry that my application was incomplete, as ssk2 suggested. (his/her case was at Austin, but still.)

Thx for the information.

Apparently my letters are all submitted correctly. GRE, TOEFL scores as well.

Hope all my applications are complete..

 

Congrats to your Cornell and Brown offer, btw!

Michigan had a PhD visit day today. I'm going to guess that if you haven't been admitted yet to the PhD program, then your chances are not very high.

 

 

Oh really? I couldn't find it in the department calendar. Hmm.

 

 

Here are the gradcafe results so far for PhD applicants. I would guess waitlists for Berkeley and Austin. San Diego and Amherst seem marginally better. Michigan probably has the most open slots left (?). 

 

Berkeley:

 

12 interviews (17-Jan to 24-Jan)

17 accepts (23-Jan to 9-Feb)

1 reject (24-Jan)

 

Visit weekend (March 17-18, 2013)

 

Austin:

 

18 accepts (23-Jan to 24-Jan)

2 waitlists (31-Jan to 4-Mar)

1 reject (5-Mar)

 

Michigan:

 

5 interviews (24-Jan to 9-Feb)

5 accepts (29-Jan to 9-Feb; at least 2 with fellowship)

 

San Diego:

 

2 interviews (25-Jan to 27-Jan)

21 accepts (25-Jan to 13-Feb)

1 accept (22-Feb)

1 reject (13-Feb)

 

"Applicants are aacepted and rejected on a rolling basis until mid-April"

 

Amherst:

 

1 interview (29-Jan)

11 accepts (22-Jan to 8-Feb)

3 rejects (18-Feb to 19-Feb)

 

Thx for the summary!

 

I see several MS rejection reports by UT Austin applicants in the gradcafe results today. Mine is still "under review."

 

 

Anyone received e-mail about waitlist from your program?

[Too soon to lose hope? Berkeley, UT Austin, Michigan, UC San Diego]

Hi jdeep,

 

Yeah, we never know. That's certainly true. My interest is "smart grid." My major is CS, but I also read a lot of papers about power system. What about yours?

[Too soon to lose hope? Berkeley, UT Austin, Michigan, UC San Diego]

Thx for the replies!

 

Since the discussions on the forum is mainly about MS lately, I was under an impression that it is customary to think we are rejected already at this time of the year.

Perhaps I was wrong?

 

I know it doesn't change my chances, but it feels so good to know someone else is also waiting for the same program.

[Too soon to lose hope? Berkeley, UT Austin, Michigan, UC San Diego]

I know this kind of topic is ubiquitous, but I can't help it. And I think you'd understand...

 

I'm applying to PhD programs in CS, and waiting for the results from Berkeley, UT Austin, Michigan, and UC San Diego.

Anyone else still waiting for these?

 

Since Berkeley has grad student visit days in few days, I assume there's almost no hope for Berkeley.

But what about the others? Any thoughts?
