  1. When I asked about funding at Stanford they said all funding decisions had already been made in the department... I can't image going in that much debt this early in my adult life lol
  2. I'd definitely like to hear more about this transitioning from MS to PhD? What were they being dishonest about? Also I'm curious did they say anything about financial aid?
  3. This gives me hope, I was starting to assume if we hadn't heard back by now it would be a rejection based off of past year trends
  4. I'll believe it when I see it haha Did they say anything about funding?
  5. Is it Stanford? If so I'm in the same boat, I've been told they give out very little funding so I'm not very hopeful. I'm trying to decide if it's worth going to visit day..
  6. Accepted: Stanford, UT Austin, Virginia Tech, UIUC, Columbia Waiting: Berkeley, MIT
  7. I thought I'd join this. The main ones i'm waiting to hear back from right now are MIT and berkeley I was accepted into stanford about a week ago, but in the letter it said they could not offer financial aid at this time. I applied by the dec 5 financial aid deadline, i'm not thinking it's worth the 80k to go The schools I have received funding/been told I'm very likely to get it are Virginia Tech and UT
  8. Can anyone give me some more insight on visit days and what all purposes they have? I've applied to quite a few grad schools for a phd in civil engineering and am waiting on all the results. Are visit days really important for getting accepted/funded? Kinda concerned because some of the school I have heard back from have visit days during weekdays. I have class that drops a letter grade for every absence and they won't excuse these grad visit days. A lot of the visit days are 2-3 days, would it be bad to go to them only 1 or 2 of the days? Almost every school I applied to is flying distance away so that kinda complicates my scheduling too blah
