What about Camera Culture?

Sorry, I have no information regarding this group. And based on previous years' results, if you have not received interview invitation yet, then I am afraid it means rejection.

Is Feb 26 the date they begin to send acceptance e-mails ?

No, it is the 1st March. Btw, I've reached out for Resenv, and Joe said the admission for his group was already done.

I reached out to the Tangible Media group last week,

May I quote "

Please be assured that we are still in the process of reviewing applicants. If you have any further questions or concerns about admissions, you may contact mas@media.mit.edu for more information.

 

We appreciate your patience.

 

Regards, "

 

I am not sure if it is the same for other groups, but I choose to stay positive, even it is already late Feb.

 

And plz add anything aware.

@leamars yep, stay positive and let’s see what happens. May I know which similar program it is? I obtained my BSc and Master’s degree in the UK.

I've checked the Academic Calendar, and it indicates that 6th Feb will be the first day of Spring Term. Hopefully, we're about hearing some news from next week.

@laveritecestla yep, understood. Best wishes for ya!

I'm actually the one acceptance and the one interview on the results thread - I was originally contacted by Conformable Decoders (2nd) choice, interviewed, was accepted, found out that I got an interview for the MEMP program, and figured it couldn't hurt to reach out to Biomechatronics (1st) since Herr is known for preferring to take HST students for funding reasons. I would definitely say not to worry yet, even while interviewing with Conformable Decoders they recognized that they were very much ahead of the usual timeline. 

Congrats (thumbs up). And thanks for providing these information since it might comfort those awaiting. Btw, will you choose Conformable Decoders, or waiting for a better program?

I've applied for Affective Computing, Civic Media, Collective Learning. How about you?

Responsive Environment (1st), Mediated Matter (2nd), Tangible Media (3rd)
No matter what result it will be, life is moving on, right? Best wishes for you!

Hi.

I only had 5 page views from one visitor on Jan 10th, which lasted about a minute and a half...I already feel like I won't be making to the interview ... :-(

Hi, plz be positive. Interviews are supposed to be completed around late Feb.

May I know which three groups you applied? I think those two acceptance posts should be spam.

[MIT Media Lab Fall 2018]

Hi, everyone. I haven't seen a post regarding the MIT Media Lab application this year, so this topic is for all candidates to share.

On 6th Jan, my online portfolio had 7 visitors from MIT (Google analytics), averagely staying on 10 minutes (from 1st Dec to present, 16 visitors totally). But I haven't received an interview invitation email yet. Based on the previous years' results, it seems that interview is essential, and I just saw a single post on the Results Panel "Accepted via phone after two rounds of interviews. Very excited!", then it means that someone already got an offer, right?

I was in the Open House 2nd Oct, and the following information is what I have picked up:

Conformable Decoders: Canan's group is a science-core one, and it would be more competitive with a materials background (I remember that David mentioned some transplant project with the BGH), so I didn't choose it since it is not a match for me.

Responsive Environment: For now, all students are at PhD level and no Master students there, still, 0-2 places.

Any additional information would be appreciated (but please do mention your fields of interest, it might be beneficial for others or further applicants). Best wishes for you all.
