I was invited to the visit days last Friday (2/8), then got told to look at the website to find the official admission letter on Sunday. Another official letter emailed from the ECE department on Tuesday. I didn't have an interview and all the letters mentioned nothing about funding, I'm assuming they will deal with that later this month or into March.

Don't worry, I just looked and I never got one as well. Only recommendation confirmation emails. They must not send them. Never noticed while applying though...

Just trying to add to the pool of information. I hope someone can find this useful. I'll try to remember to update with admits/rejections Undergrad Institution: Small,regionally well respected engineering school Major(s): Electrical Engineering (focus in low power integrated circuit design) Minor(s): Mathematics GPA in Major: 3.99 Overall GPA: 3.85 Length of Degree: 4 years (took one quarter off for internship) Position in Class: No ranking done at school, but probably at least top 5% Type of Student: Domestic, white male GRE Scores: Q: 164 V: 156 W: 4.0 Research Experience: ​3 month REU in applicable area of research, co-author on conference paper; Undergraduate research project currently in progress, will write publication and present at undergraduate research conference in Spring Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Dean's List...not much else Pertinent Activities or Jobs: 6 month internship at Intel; Lab assistant/helper for lower level EE courses; Summer internship at electric company; IT department student worker during school year; Officer for Tau Beta Pi Other Stuff: -I know my professors very well, so all 3 letters of rec should be fairly strong; one from REU advisor -My school doesn't really do any large amount of research at all (and none at all in my area), so just being able to get a couple opportunities was nice. I tried to emphasize this on my applications. I'm not sure if they really care though :/ Applying for PhD in EECS/ECE Department at: UIUC U Minnesota U Mich Berkeley Stanford U Texas Purdue
