  1. To those who received interview invitation to NU - welcome! Looking forward to meeting you!
  2. I got accepted by MAPSS this year, and believe that your background is quite enough for MAPSS. I heard that MAPSS is somehow more generous than MAPH in terms of awards, but don't expect it too much. Those with a full tuition waiver is usually capable of a Ph.D. program or even with offers from other places.
  3. Already accepted the CSLS offer from Northwestern. Anyone also going there? I didn't see any other results from Learning Sciences & CSLS here..
  4. Try to contact the professor at Minnesota and see if she wants to work with you. If so, go Minnesota; otherwise, go UTA!
  5. No, I don't think they will spend any time to explain the reason in the application season - but maybe you can schedule a call with them prior to your application to see which program fits you best.
  6. Find the program that matches you best - that is what I am doing right now.
  7. Got a rejection for TIE program - seems absurd as I already had an interview earlier this month - but it certainly has some points, as the AO told me that they don't have a corresponding PhD program, and very few people got into a PhD after the program. So, basically, I think I don't match the program...
  8. I can't tell which school actually visited my portfolio. I think most of the master programs don't have that kind of patience..
  9. I think it should be next Friday. Consulted with their academic calendar.
  10. I wish I could leave something for future applicants: don't simply believe their claim that they are weighing mostly on your portfolio. You may still get filtered by your undergrad institution, GPA, recommendation letters, and get zero portfolio visits throughout the game. Since you have no way to report your GRE, this time you have no way to compensate for your academic background. It may also be better if you have a chance to visit the lab in person and build some connections - without connections, it seems much harder to get in, or even simply get a glance at your folder.
  11. I heard another applicant from China said so.
  12. Update: the PI of Viral Communications gave me a very common response - they are still reviewing applications; they will contact if it is needed. I think it means an implied rejection...
  13. I think it is a generalized one, and it accompanies a deadline for me to confirm. My deadline was February 7th, and the interview date is 21st/22nd. I believe the date for LS must be different, can be a week later or so (of which I have no idea).
  14. If you are applying to a PhD program, it means you are out of the game. Otherwise, congratulations!
  15. I think they have sent out all invitations for LS and CSLS. I received one for CSLS on February 1st. Since they share the same program assistant, I don't think if things could be very different. Good luck to you!
  16. Thanks for your kind reply! I tried to examine my CDN log; never did I see a MIT IP. However, the methodology for every group may be slightly differentiated. I host the website in China; however, all of my overseas friends told me they were able to visit it (since the CDN provides the service). Anyway, it won't hurt!
  17. I am embarrassed by the fact that no portfolio visit from MIT was recorded until now. Seems that they still filter applicants with some ways - even though they repeatedly promise that GPA is unimportant.
  18. I have no idea if they finished every interview... Don't lose heart!
  19. I heard someone got an interview with Personal Robots two weeks ago, but she said that was only because the PI was to travel soon... So they accelerated the process. For other groups, no information yet.
  20. I think they welcome entrepreneurs. I have a very unconventional profile and a speaking score lower than 26, but they choose to give the interview.
  21. UPDATE: The admission officer told me that the admission outcome will be available in early March, not late March. Good luck to everyone!
  22. Shall I ask the admission officer tomorrow?
  23. I think HGSE only send out interviews to master applicants when you have a TOEFL speaking score lower than 26. I received one today for TIE.
