    Hi bro,

    I don't know anything about SOLAR System. Could you please tell me  more about it and how to apply for housing?

    I read it in the NTU website that we have to get the health Checkup done only at Singapore.

    BTW Bro, Have you decided which university to attend? You are from PRC/India ?

    Pls see your inbox

    Yes. Apparently the Research scholarship comes with a Monthly stipend, Tuition fee and Computer fees.

    That's great

    I would like to know what the next process is? Do you log in to your SOLAR System already?

    I have already accepted an offer but still havn't log in to the SOLAR.

    Do your apply for the housing already? I applied the graduate hall 2.

    Do you know whether the medical report form only take place at SG or it can take place at where we came from as we are international students?

    Today received admission offer from NTU. I've been awarded NTU research scholarship with a monthly stipend of 2000 Singapore $! Not sure whether the award covers the tuition fee though as the language in Scholarship offer is ambiguous. Could you tell me whether it includes tuition fee ?

    Congrats to you

    I think it is included the tuition fee as it mentioned on the website.

    You should email them for sure.

    I have been received the offer today but there was no scholarship for me.

    Hi bro,

    Today I received this mail from my PI  but I am not so sure that I received an admit from NTU.

    "I'm happy to let you know that you have been selected for the PhD position in my group. The School will now review your application and communicate with you directly regarding the administrative procedures."

    Does it means that there is also a possibility that my application will get turned down at this stage by the School despite the offer from the professor?  Could you please give any information on this?

    Hi roboticx

    I think the email that you received is the tentative offer from NTU. After this stage the school will send your application to the main graduate studies office (ntu itself not the division or school) , so you have to wait for the official confirmation and the scholarship info from the main office. 

    Which scholarship do you apply to?

    Hi Ardent_PhD,

    Thanks so much for your considerations. I am not sure if I could call it as an Interview.. It went more like an Informal chat. The professor asked just generic questions like What are my previous research experiences, skillsets etc. Today he mailed me with a Journal Article and stated that I should give him a write-up of what that paper was about in 3 days. I am not sure what that means and clearly not optimistic about NTU at this timeframe ...

    Anyways I am hoping to get into NUS as I'd applied based on a Professor suggestion that he is very much willing to take me provided I clear the 'pre-screening' of the department in his own words. I am really hopeful for it as the research fit  is great between us.

    How about you? Did you hear back from the department? Hopefully we both get admitted according to our wishes!

    hi roboticx,

    I havn't got anything yet. 

    Best wishes for us.

    I enquired the MAE Administration about my application status. Today I received that " Thank you for your email.  We regret to inform that your application is currently not shortlisted by any professor.  Meanwhile, your application will be kept in our common pool for faculty review.  If the faculty is interested in your application, they will contact you.Regards,MAE Graduate Studies Unit". Does it means I am rejected ? or waitlisted?

    I think you are on the waitlist.

    I guess. Just wait for the faculty level to email back.

    Thanks Ardent_PhD :) . Does IGS dept is more selective than the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NTU? I was interviewed for IGS PhD program in March but was rejected soon even though I found a great fit with a Professor's research. I was told that the IGS school is prestigious and very selective among NTU departments. How true is that ?

    Received any result yet?

    I didn't receive any interview calls from NTU thus far. I contacted the department today and got reply that they are still reviewing the applications. They didn't say when they will communicate the decisions. You received any call for Interview?

    Yep I was called for interview since November and still haven't got any response till now.

    I emailed my division last week they told me that the application process is still in processing and I have to wait until end April/early May.

    I am under the impression that the more one's application is on hold - the more likely it would be accepted in the end? Rejections are communicated swiftly (I had a rejection a day after my interview once) and it would be unfair for one to suffer an anxious wait for 6 months only to find out one's application got rejected (NTU's deadline was 15 Nov - so it's 5 months and counting)

    hi waklu ,

    pls see your inbox

    I applied to both NUS and NTU (psychology phd). I have already received offer from NUS one month or so ago, with full scholarship. However, NTU has put me on a waitlist. I knew that they have already sent out the first batch of offer in March.

    I havn't received any waitlist and rejection yet from NTU.
