Hello everyone, I'm jut wondering if still there are some applicants waiting the results from this program?

Thank u

I agree

do it yourself. no one know who you are except yourself

Hello everyone, I have more than two years as lecturer in university. Teaching four courses that are related to the program I applied for. (phd). also I have 3 years work experience. how are these experiences important in admission process?

do not worry. u will get what is meant for u .

I think last week of March will be happy or sad week

between = exclusive. ( unless stated in the question is inclusive ) the answer to your example is ({21, 28})

you know what. I booked with this center for the first time because I could not find available place in other centers. after I finished the test. someone called me and he was talking to me in a strange way. he works in the center and said to me I'm the manager here. he took a paper from his desk and said to me look at this GRE scores. he insisted that this guy is very smart. it was 160 on Q and 168 On V. I felt like he was trying to offer me that this guy will do the test instead of me. I said to him the Q the same as my result and the verbal is 151 which I'm happy with.( I'm international student and my major is Engineering)

I took the GRE test on 01/19/2015. I was waiting the results to be published online after 13 days. but it did take more 17 days which was unusual for me. then I went to check it online, it said the test was canceled. anyone have any idea what does that mean?

I can't wait anymore. Applied to 7 universities. no single word from any of them . getting 7 rejections together will be extremely disappointing.

I will try to accept all qualified applicants.

good luck all guys and a BIG welcome from Saudi Arabia to those who got admitted. KAUST is in a small town but u will like it and Jeddah is just 70 Km away. I can guarantee that you like everything there except the weather in the summer

do not contact anyone. wait until they tell you your application status.

do not worry. GRE is not everything. Look at the stats of students who got admitted. I was surprised that many students who have very high GRE scores got rejected and those with low GRE scores got admitted.

I have 6 letter of recommendations. I submitted 6 for USC because the system allow me to submit up to 6. UCLA, up to 4. so I submitted 4. Also in the requirements they said " minimum 3 " not " only 3 " if there is someone will be rejected due to many recommendations, it is sure me. but you submitted 3. that's at all not " too Many "

I think that's right. but why programs do that. they should review all applications together and see which application is better.

does that also mean you were on informal wait-list? I have heard that some schools do not announce a wait-list because they got annoyed by wait-listed applicants.

in my case, they do not send rejections first because I saw in this website acceptances and rejections. I do not know. sometimes I say why I have not been rejected so far if the rejection is my fate. that's give a tiny hope.

I have seen some students got rejected saying: " I expected a rejection after waiting for so long. " is that true? I applied for UCLA, Phd. In the department I applied for, in Feb, I saw some got accepted and some got rejected. non of them in the same track I applied for, except one, but he got rejected. I contacted the department, they said to me: your application is still under review .

the same situation. I saw some students got accepted and other rejected in the college i applied for but non of them in the same track I applied for. only one student got rejected ( he applied for the same track I applied for, no accepted student ) his math GRE score is 170( I saw my rejection here ) i contact the college, they said to me if you did not get any email it means your application still under review .

" he is so confident to apply for our program " " he is just wasting our time " " and look prof. he has no research experience at all " " I think we should send him with the rejection letter all our applicants profiles to let him know the he is the worst application we have ever had " " but he has a full external funding " " his master GPA is high " " good work experience " " and he has a reasonable GRE and IELTS scores " " good letters of recommendation" " ok I guess we should leave this terrible application to the dean to see what he will do " " by the way: do not forget that he is from a country has nothing with research " the dean : taking everything into account " this guy is admitted " face of professor after he knows that I'm admitted : " what ever u decide: he will not be one of my students" The dean: let see what he will do in courses then we will assign him an adviser" Always I'm not the best but by luck I take the place of the best honestly, I do not like the phrase " take the place of best " because it is not fair but they will find for me a place.

I saw some students admitted without funding in the same college I applied for. so the truth is that not all schools have enough funding.

That's make a sense. I guess I'm on an informal waitlist at UCLA. They sent some acceptences and some rejections. But i have not heard anything so far.

what is the point in that? I saw some universities sent acceptances and rejections come in waves.
