  1. I inquired about the UCLA waitlist. Looks as though they have made their decisions. This is the reply I received:
  2. And how much is it including cost of living? 50k per year?
  3. Yea, like Futureplanner said, early feb. Funding info came in Early march.
  4. Hey all! I would love it if you could vote on my poll created on Reddit to help me decide on my grad school! It's in no way the ultimate deciding factor but I'd like to know what others would do in my situation. Thanks a bunch!
  5. In at USC! I wasn't expecting it but I'm happy to end this admission cycle on a positive note. Now moving on to deciding where to go. Congrats to others who have gotten their acceptances!
  6. I'm on the same boat and these are my exact thoughts! I read that there are chances of getting to know the decisions on April 14th (if we are lucky) but I'm not sure how much that applies to this year since many of those who have been given admission are possibly accepting and from what I see on gradcafe, UCLA has put several others on the wait-list. This worries me that the chances are slim but if its your top choice, waiting until the 11th hour could be worth it. And if you do get in after April 15th and choose to go to UCLA, you'll just have to go through the whole process of dropping the school you accepted before.
  7. Hey! So I got my update on March 6th via email.
  8. Hey all! I've been following this thread for a while as I waited anxiously to hear back. I thought I'd share my stats and results to join in on the discussion as we near April 15th. Age/Gender/Citizenship 25/F/India Undergraduate degree/School/Year graduated Bachelor of Architecture / Top university in the Middle East / 2018 GPA - GRE - TOEFL (for Int'l students) 3.08 - GRE 146(V) 148(Q) 3.5(AW), TOEFL-110, IELTS-8.5 My GRE isn't the best but I knew most schools wouldn't ask for it this year. Work Experience: 2+ years in an Architecture firm; several internships for low-cost fabrication and built projects; volunteer experience in Zanzibar to help build amenities for school children (main motivation to pursue planning and development) I plan to focus on International Development and Planning Letter of recommendations: (from whom) Combination of Studio Professors from Architecture school; Current boss Schools applied to: NYU, Rutgers, UNC, UCLA, USC, Berkeley, Harvard GSD, UIUC, UMich In: NYU, Rutgers, UIUC Out: Berkeley, Harvard GSD, UMich Wait-list: UNC, UCLA Awaiting: USC Results: NYU Denied funding which makes it very difficult for me to afford. Rutgers gave me 50% scholarship as well the opportunity for GA/TA positions. UIUC no news of funding yet. My top choice is UCLA but unfortunately I am not in yet.
