This is indeed great achievement. Just for my curiosity, did you receive funding from both schools?

I claim that as long as they have Moshe Vardi, they will have money

when was the visiting day?

guys any news?

congrats newms. so I guess your interview was more to notify you about your admission than to decide on your admission? I am little worried since I have not heard anything from UMich.

Did prof say when they are going to decide?

I have not heard anything either. @fangsout, mind sharing your research area?

Faloutsos?

Any info about when Cornell releasing results?

Did they say when the visit weekend is?

how did that happen? are you a columbia undergrad/grad? congrats btw.

any updates on the experimental section?

I know that we are supposed to take GRE once in a calendar month but does this mean that there should be 30 days between two exams? Thanks.

Firstly, thanks for your responses... My current department is ranked top-10 whereas CS department is ranked 50-ish. Although I am happy with my advisor, I want to get a PhD in CS from a higher-ranked university.

I would like to ask you guys a question while everyone is still around. Consider an international student who did his undergrad in CS then made a very very wrong decision and started doing a PhD in a different field (though very related to CS). Now, I decided to leave after getting my MS and will apply again for Fall 2011. Because of the stupid courses that I had taken, I have a fairly low graduate GPA (around 3.4) and my greatest concern is the B- that I received in graduate level probability course. My question is that, how important is graduate GPA for the admissions committee? Thank you so much in advance.
