    By the way, were you invited for an interview for ESOP? How did it go?

    No i wasn't. It's unlikely that i will be anymore since we're in the final week of march already..but i haven't heard of anyone from my department who was interviewed and i recently knew that it has happened in previous years that ESOP was granted with no interview so i guess we still have a thin sliver of hope!

    I also got admitted to the same program, but I am not sure about I am going to accept this offer or not as actually I am more interested to admitted into Mech MSc but got rejected sadly.?
     

    I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to accept either although it's my top choice. I still have to sort out the financial aspect.. i don't know how it works at ETH but maybe you can accept the offer and transfer to the program you prefer in the second semester or so?

    Congratz! By the way do you mind sharing your profile? I am applying to the same program but I haven’t heard anything yet :(

    Thank you!

    I'm an international student, with a BE in Civil and Environmental Engineering from a top university in the middle east and a 3.99/4 GPA (yes i know it looks as ridiculous as the 99.99% detergent efficacy claims but it's true?). GRE scores: 165V, 169Q, and 5W. I have no publications and no relevant work experience or relevant internships. I did receive three awards for my group final year project, though. (It was a materials research paper, focused on developing a modified asphalt mix that lasts longer and is more sustainable. So it's not really related but one of the awards was a sustainability-focused one so it might have boosted my profile.) 

    my application status still says "under review" but i was too impatient and eventually emailed the department to know if there's been a mixup, and they confirmed my acceptance. I think they're planning to update the portal once they're done with all applications, so don't worry they're not done yet! 

    Good luck?

    I think it varies from department to department. Like all ITET guys have got a generic mail and their portal is updated. Similarly for your department, I think you are getting an official mail first and changes in the portal will reflect later. I don't think you should be wary about it.

    Congratulations :)

    this was comforting to read, thank you! :)

  5. I received my admission offer for the MSc in Integrated Building Systems (MIBS) earlier today (10 AM GMT). I got an email from the department's "head of student administration", and the offer letter (dated today, February 19th) was attached and included additional information about the program, starting date, and so on. 

    What's weird is that nothing changed on the portal. I didn't get the generic email to check my status. Status is still "under review" and there's still nothing regarding ESOP. I'm a bit wary about feeling relieved before the portal is updated.

    Anyone having the same issue?

    Rejected this morning for D-HEST admission. Well, that was a waste of 150 CHF. Thanks all for wishing me well nonetheless.

    Good luck to the rest of you guys, and hope everyone hears some news soon!

    i'm so sorry!  it's definitely unfortunate to be rejected based on program specs. the fact that you were interviewed means your profile is pretty impressive so coupled with better luck you'll surely do great elsewhere. All the best ❤️

    Sure, they were pretty standard interview questions like why did you choose ETH, why this programme, where do you see yourself working in the future, and then just a quick chat about the preproposal :) 

    i hope what happened won't discourage you and I expect you will be accepted into the program regardless! thank you so much for sharing your experience in detail ❤️

    Hi! 

    I have read through all the previous years' discussions and wondered who would start it this year

     

    Btw, how have you learned about this forum, guys? Were you intensively googling ESOP just AS I did? :') 

    hahahah it was obsessive, nervous googling for me too! the waiting part is definitely the most stressful, so stressing together and celebrating each other might help ease the process!
