congratulations for your selection.

Hey do you have any idea when Kaust is going to evaluate MS/PhD applications???

Hmmm i don't know. As you can see in my history that it took about 1 month from submit online application to 1st interview. So be patient and good luck panchi.

@Pachi, No, I did not. They said I will join PhD even though my initial application was MS/PhD. They are considering my previous MS.
