  1. I know this can be an awkward situation - I've adopted the rule of just calling them Prof X until they say otherwise. One prof I've been in communication with since acceptance told me I could call him by his first name, prior to that I used Prof. X.

  9. I think your high GRE score would get noticed. Of course it's very unlikely that it would be the reason that they would choose you, but I think that it would be noticed and may play some part in funding decisions. Your SoP and your letters would be much more important however, and if you clearly outlined your research experience and interests as well as how you would fit with the schools that you applied to, then that would help your application a lot more than your high GRE. I'm not sure how much the schools you applied to will consider the flags on your transcripts, but they do tend to pay a lot of attention to the last 2 years and they do like to see that your GPA has improved over the years. It's hard waiting, but I hope you get some good news soon. All the best!
  10. Cool. Thanks for the info.
  11. Yeah, me too. I'm waiting to hear how I did at other schools before I make a decision.
  12. I'm guessing your roommate is talking about undergrads. I don't get the impression that it's a 'party school' at the grad level - at least I hope not I do like football and I'm familiar with Michigan's tradition, even though they've slipped recently, so I'm looking forward to seeing the Big House when I visit next month. I'm not too concerned about the cold, I think I'd manage ok.
  13. I'm considering attending UMich in the fall. Anybody else considering UMich or already decided to attend Michigan?
  14. I can't either. It sounds promising - I hope they aren't playing games with your heart though. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
  15. I'm sure that SoP will get you excepted.

  17. Just to clarify - international students wouldn't be able to have a part time job, right? At least not off campus?
  18. No good news on my end from GaTech as they took a really long time to update the status from "No decision has been made" to "PreEval-Dept. Decision Pending" which it only recently changed to. I don't see a space for Visa/I-20 (they already have my final transcript). So that could mean potentially good news for you or it could just be another step in the processing. Good luck!

  23. It sounds a lot like marketing, rather than a decision, as you say. Still, I would call her back and talk to her - it's quite unusual from what I've seen for someone from a school to be calling applicants like this. Good luck!

  25. It's possible that they would try to arrange a phone interview or an interview via Skype. It's also possible that they may just admit you without an interview. Good Luck!
