Are they sending out decisions in batches?

Purdue as well ?

What is the process for receiving the i20 if you get admitted into a fully funded PhD program. I'm a fall 2020 aspirant

Hello people! I am a 2018 ChemE grad from Nigeria and I'm applying to ChemE PhD programs in the US. I graduated from a top 5 Nigerian institution where I completed senior research and design projects. I was wondering if these would be sufficient research experience for PhD programs given that American and Asian students have more research experiences. My stats are: GPA--4.82/5(roughly a 3.87/4) GRE-- 160Q, 162V, 4.5 My research interests include-- fuel/PV cells, electrochemistry and batteries, CO2 conversion, and air pollution Other info-- I have LORs from my research Supervisor, design Supervisor and a senior lecturer from my department which I believe are all very positive. I was also ranked 2nd in my class. I have applied to the following Universities: University of Michigan Purdue University of Colorado boulder University of Notre dame Rensselaer polytechnic institute University of Iowa Stevens institute of technology I appreciate your comments and suggestions! Thank you

Hi, I hear a lot about fit and I would really like to know what that really means to a STEM adcomm , and also how as applicants we can show our fit with the program. Thanks!

Undergrad Institution (approx. rank/reputation in STEM): Covenant University, Nigeria (Top ranked in Nigeria) Major(s): Chemical Engineering Minor(s): GPA in Major: 4.82/5.00 . Roughly a 3.87/4.00 Overall GPA: x.xx/4.00 Demographics/Background: African/Male GRE Scores: Q: 160 (73%) V: 162 (91%) W: 4.5 (81%) LOR: 1 from my research Supervisor, 1 from my design project Supervisor, 1 from another of my Professors and 1 backup from my internship Research Experience: 1 year at home university (for credit) - one Research project and one design project Publications/Abstracts/Presentations: 2 oral presentations Awards/Honors/Recognitions: Award of Excellence Fellowships/Funding: Can't apply ? Pertinent Activities or Jobs: Dunno if it counts as pertinent or relevant but I had a one year internship with Huawei. Other Miscellaneous Accomplishments: Anything else in your application that might matter (faculty connections, etc.): Research Interests: Fuel cells, Perovskites, photocatalysis, PV cells, Energy production and storage. Institutions/Programs: university of Michigan Purdue university University of Colorado Boulder university of Notre dame Rensselaer polytechnic institute university of Iowa Stevens institute of technology Comments: - Tbh, I don't know what to expect. I really hope I can get in! Would love to get into any of Michigan or Purdue, but I definitely would not mind any of the schools listed. I got a little scared seeing how everyone had so much research experience! I hope my relatively lesser experience doesn't keep me out.
