Hey guyz.. U gotta help me here..
I recently got accepted to a really good university.. One of my top choices in fact.. The issue is like this. I emailed a prof after I submitted my application.. He replied with an email showing interest in me and stating that our research interests matched. He even put attachments of the labs work.
Now I get accepted to the institute.
and I mail him telling him the news. The wierd thing starts now.. He doesnt reply.
I waited a few days and sent him another email. Why isnt he replying,..?
Not many students get accepted and probably 4 students get in his field. !! The masters program isnt funded .. so its not like I'm asking him to fund me..!! What went wrong..? :cry:

Yeah man.. It does mean you're in. I kinda had the same experience. I got a mail from USC asking me to fill my I-20 form out of the blue.. Without any prior commn.. When i checked the website it said decision will be conveyed only via postal mail.. Luckily after about three days i got the official acceptance email too..

OK then. Fingers crossed... And as an answer to your original post.. I believe this is the default procedure.. Cause another friend of mine got the same mail.. and I applied in October.

and yeh.. the exact same mail.. Wayne Whitman I believe..

Well.. I wouldnt say its bad news for you.. i guess that means profs in my field are full.. CAD/CAE btw. ones i got into are OSU,USC n UFl. but i guess with my credentials i shouldnt expect too much (GRE 800q +500v/5.5). what specialization r u in..?

New member here.. Got the same mail about a month ago.. on Jan 11th . Contacted a few profs but guess they were already full, so got a negative reply from them.. Mailed a few other profs, but no reply from them at all.. So stopped worrying for now :| . Have to wait till my other schools reply and wait for their decisions..
Anyway got into 3 schools already so im not too tensed right now...
What went wrong..?

What do people put in the subject line of their emails..? What do you think will make professors look at your email from the many mails that they get..?
