    The first result has just been posted from the Statistics department (as expected). I personally have not geard back yet for my Statistics application but Im sure that will follow sooner or later. I do not expect any significant delays

    Wow that area was fast! All the best for your application :) So not everyone has to wait until March to get rejected/accepted to the program? - regardless of the ESOP

  2. Do you guys think there is one interview for ESOP and ETH-D or only for ESOP and candidates may be granted an ETH-D without an interview? I was reading previous posts on this topic and it seemed that people were given the partial stipend scholarship without an interview. Also the ETH-D winners are not announced to the public (as far as I could google search haha). Any ideas on this?

    Interview update...

    Due to the fact I have an international Bachelor degree and I am missing some of the important prerequisites for D-HEST (Math, and enough physics), I found out that I have very slim chance of ESOP or ETH-D. Apparently Bachelor course content is favoured quite heavily by the selection committee no matter how excellent a student you are, as virtually all ESOP recipients in D-HEST come from the ETH Bachelor stream. I have heard similar things for BME. 

    I was extremely confident with my pre-proposal and asked if it weighs much on the scholarship selection, and no not really (for international D-HEST applicants anyway), it largely depends on what courses you have taken in the Bachelor and if they are very closely aligned with those of the ETH Bachelor equivalent.

    To put things in perspective I am ranked in the top 7% of my Bachelor programme, was a research assistant at ETH for a semester during my Bachelor, strong LORs and LOM, strong pre-proposal (and in line with the research groups work), no publications.

    I worked incredibly hard on my ESOP application so I am quite disappointed, but at least I was given a shot with the interview ?‍♀️ Not even sure if I still have a chance with admission in general. ? 

    Hope you guys have better chance with the other programmes, hopefully they are not as stringent :)

    All the best for your application! Thank you so much for sharing your experience, it does help a lot for the ones waiting :) I am sure that with your profile you will most probably be accepted to the program! And again, the decision was not made yet about the scholarship so all the best of luck!!! ❤️
