I might not be able to join KAUST this fall. I just met with a KAUST alumni yesterday. She just recently graduated from KAUST. She said that the professor that I listed in my application isnt working in KAUST anymore. Oh my... XD the professor name is still ON the list when I applied last December. I dont really interested on joining other group, so. Anyway, I might apply for spring 2017 if there is another interesting professor.

looks like they dont want me, sigh waiting is v.difficult.

that s not bizzare, they do it every single year...first deadline in Jan. then second deadline in Feb. I read it on the other thread about KAUST. Ah...I am becoming more and more pessimistic, maybe I need to find a job *real* job.

where did you get that information from?

he is right, most of Indonesian female students I knew back then were wearing hijab.

I dont want to keep my expectation too high...I read the previous KAUST thread, too much disappointment there. I was part of Discovery Scholarship from KAUST, waaay in 2008, different system, so I dont think I could provide relevant information for current condition.

nothing so far, but I got a suspicious notification from my researchgate account that a reader from Germany open my profile, it might be the professor... since I havent contact him personally before the application. Anyway, I am anxious XD

nice....when will it be? please, tell us how is it going later

are you applying for master or PhD?

still quiet till today

ikr...that s why I am here

lets wait

I was moving to Japan for a personal reason

Since nobody yet to start a new thread about KAUST, lets make one I apply for KAUST fall 2016 for Marine Science PhD got 2 masters already, one from KAUST, another one from a japanese public university both 3.8/ 4.0 GPA KAUST admission staff told me I dont need TOEFL/IELTS anymore, but i have booked IELTS session, that i couldnt cancel (dang!) got 1 first author paper, several posters, internship in Japan culture collection, let see how it will turn out to be, quite nervous reading all the posts in KAUST spring 2016, it seems luck is the most important thing.
