I got into Yale last year. There were 8 people at the visiting day. I think out of those one accepted the offer.
when was the visiting day?
-
guys any news?
-
I think I'm in - just waiting for the official offer. The POI I talked to said that he was confident that I'd get an offer and that I should look out for it later this week.
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?
-
My professor of choice is on sabbatical this year, so I will opt for retaining a modicum of hope
Faloutsos?

Any info about when Cornell releasing results?

Nope, I'm an undergrad at another school. I just applied normally, submitting my application on the due date (12/1). I was very surprised by their response time, but they do advertise that they have rolling admissions. I'm still waiting on responses from the 10 other schools I applied to though, haha.
Did they say when the visit weekend is?

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...
I totally agree. The other thing I would suggest is directly address your prior grad word and your marks in your statement of purpose. Don't pretend it isn't there and hope they don't see. Frame it as a learning experience: a way through which you gained experience and developed your true research goals.
Any chance of doing a transfer of departments within the school you are already at? That might be less painful in general...
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.
Will GRE retake help me to get into top schools?

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