    Also waiting with you guys :)

    Mine is kinda different, I understand most of you here are applying to US schools. I applied to different schools around the world haha. I did not have a specific country in mind, but I really wanted to do my masters abroad so I applied to the schools I liked.

    Age/Gender/Citizenship

    24 / M / Philippines

    Undergraduate degree/School/Year graduated 

    BS Architecture / UPD / 2019

    GPA - GRE  - TOEFL (for Int'l students) 

    1.38/1.00 (reverse scale, ~3.4/4.0) - No GRE - IELTS 8.0

    Work Experience:

    2.5 years for a real estate developer

    Letter of recommendations: (from whom)

    Several professors (thesis adviser, former dean), work supervisor

    Schools applied to:  Auckland (NZ)/ Melbourne (AU) / UCD (IE) / Polimi (IT) / VIU (CA) / SUTD (SG)/ Sheffield, Manchester, Cardiff (UK)

    In: Auckland, Melbourne, UCD, Polimi, VIU, SUTD, Manchester

    Out: Sheffield

    Wait-list:

    Awaiting:  Cardiff, Glasgow

    Results:

    I am more likely to go to VIU. It was not really my top choice at first, but I was not able to secure the funding I was hoping for in all the universities I was accepted. Considering that I will pay, I felt VIU is the right choice for me. I hope I chose well. :) Good luck to everyone!

    Results:

    Melbourne gave me aud10k scholarship, UCD gave me eur4k, but even with those I find the costs still too high.

    Currently my top choice is Polimi. I am still waiting for the other unis if they will give me a better offer. Good luck to everyone!
