    Bruh, Just received an email asking me to check my status and turns out I was rejected. I have written back an email to the graduate counselor asking for a quick follow-up and where I missed out. ngl feeling defeated at the moment. I was expecting to get in, even if without funding (MS). really had my hopes high, I would have been stoked.. This broke my spirits but dad says not to worry since I have three offers 'you are lucky you have a choice'. Anyways wanted to update you on the proceedings, and now I really really hope you end up getting in. I don't really know you but with whatever little we've talked about you seem like a genuine dude. It would be great if that happens...

    Aha, thank you for that. Pretty much what my faculties and parents have been telling me. These days I'm looking at the faculties, number of research labs and the projects they undertake. I'll be honest, Campus wise and with respect to the overall atmosphere UNCC comes out at the top out of these three. Even though, I havent been offered aid, TA, RA and on-campus jobs seem to be pretty easily available plus Charlotte is a great place to be in. Somehow I don't prefer (yet) Atlanta considering GSU is basically an Urban Campus. UNCC used to be typecasted as a commuter campus but it's growing pretty good. The career and job aspects of both these choices seem to present almost equal opportunities so that isn't a factor I could consider. Declining an offer can be tough, this is my first ever application cycle and I will be declining at least two universities. Havent asked for extension yet, reckon I should do?

    Wow, those are incredible. Congrats! Well, I had a weak profile so I applied to and got into University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and Georgia State. I also have a conditional offer from Michigan Tech but I'm legit confused if UMN rejects me, which one should I choose...

    Need help deciding. Research from both interest me. Post graduation job opportunities and overall reputation are the two factors I'm considering. Please suggest, thanks!
  7. firefoxquantum
    You too pal, which other two do you have on the confirmed list?

    So, I've been waiting for a month and a half now and my status is still 'Awaiting Program Decision'. Sending the department an email just returns an automated generic BS bot reply. April 15th is coming up and I have two offers. UofM is above these in my list. I'm still waiting, anyone heard if the results are out yet for CS Masters program?

    Huh, that's interesting, thanks for the tip. While I have you with me, do you think I should start working on those financial documentation forms right now? Also, do you happen to know by what dates do most schools expect their first installment of fees to be deposited? I'm sorry if these questions appear dumb, I have no prior knowledge on this matter. I'd really appreciate any help Cheers mate~

    thanks boss!
  12. firefoxquantum
    Yeah, the date stated is April 15th. Guess I should play the waiting game for a couple more days maybe? thanks for the answer btw

    Applied for MS in CS. So I just received an acceptance from: UNC Charlotte Georgia State University (GCU) Universities yet to reply: University of Michigan Washington University in St. Louis (WashU) University of Missouri University of Georgia Should I wait or go either one of these? If so, which one???

    Thanks a ton, yes I was looking for a thread discussing STEM majors, particularly Computer Science. Major apologies since the UI of this site takes some getting used to. Cheers bruh!

    Does Umass Lowell still consider applications this late?
  16. firefoxquantum
    Is there anyone browsing who still has at least one application to be submitted or recently submitted? I'd love to talk and know.

    I got a 158Q, but I'm trying to get into STEM, so I hope things play out well. Good luck to you!

    That sound great. I will try to finish the one page summary by today evening (since I already have several of those things: LOR drafts, transcripts, list of schools with deadlines, etc as separate files). Also since it is time that our university has the term end examinations, I guess the faculties would be a little less busy. This is super helpful advice and I appreciate ya for taking out time and helping me
  19. firefoxquantum
    \ That was some really good info. Thank you. Btw can you elaborate a little on this part? Like most of the schools I'm applying to have deadlines by Dec 15th, and I had talked to professors before leaving way back in July. What do you reckon I do?
  20. firefoxquantum
    @GreenEyedTrombonist That's a good strategy, something I might implement in my approach as well. That being said, it is a welcome thought that universities are considerate enough to understand people working in academia can be super busy and an occasional slip of deadline may occur here and there. I haven't hit up my professors in recent times, might as well do it soon. Good luck to you!
  21. firefoxquantum
    Soooo what my takeaway is that, Universities accept LORs after their deadlines have passed as well? That's a first if you ask me..
  22. firefoxquantum
    Did you end up getting in? I have a similar profile and was curious
  23. firefoxquantum
    I've known a couple of guys who got somewhere in the north of 60k right after their Masters. So that statement is highly subjective.
