I can't even find the grad admissions e-mail address Maybe someone from the US could call them and ask about decisions timeline?

Has anyone heard anything at all?

Same here. I also had a short phone interview several weeks ago. I tried e-mailing the prof I have spoken to but got no reply. This is really annoying.

Now, when we are back on topic, i'd like to repeat my question. Would anyone share his/her ideas of what is allowed and what is not? Is it OK to use the textbook to find background info on the task? To see how similar problems are solved? Does the answer change when you replace "the textbook" by "the Internet"?

hey, guys, would you kindly stop discussing linguistics and logic and return to original topic?

I submitted just couple of days before the deadline and received my admission letter in February. So they definitely do not use FCFS

Ok, I'm an international student and while I know that some locations are more expensive than others, it is hard to compare financial offers from different parts of the country. Yes, I also know that there are several services on the net that can help me with this question, but I'd like to hear opinions of human beings as well So, 18k in Urbana-Champaign, IL vs 29k in Stony Brook, NY What is better, in your opinion, and how much is the difference?

what does this mean? :roll:

yep

in case you are interested, they have sent 2nd acceptance letters as well

I don't get it. You must take the exam at the very first semester? How can you possibly pass it without studying for a year or two?

UID is available at the arpa website, Supplemental Application form. Click "Verify Contact Information", it is below your e-mail.

ok, so it is maryland trash day now check testudo

is it only me or the spam level is above all reasonable limits?

Take this with a certain amount of doubt I've had an interview with XXX univ 12 days ago and they said that results will be in a week, one and half week at most. A prof from YYY univ said that results will be really-really soon more than a week ago as well. Guess what? I haven't heard a word from them since Btw, I'm almost ready to write a letter and ask about my status. To whom do you think should I write? Admission coordinator or the prof I have spoken to? In XXX this prof was interviewing me to find about fit for his group, in YYY it was just a short general interview which made me feel like I'm almost in and they just want to hear me in person and check my overall adequacy

hmm... can't edit my post 1 and half. be ready to talk about your interests in research

1. be ready to talk about your research experience 2. read about his research 3. prepare questions 4. don't worry

I got the same and what seems to be the problem is that even if you find RA position, nobody garantees that you will continue to receive funding during all your studies. For example, UIUC provides guaranteed funding for 5 years. If you get RA and professor's money run out, you will receive TA. I'm not so confident in case of wisc-mad

thank you for the info what is your area? what do you think about faculty, atmosphere (collaboration, openness... this kind of stuff)? what do grad students say?

illinois=uiuc? can you share your impressions?

They have never told otherwise. Read here: http://www.cs.purdue.edu/academic_progr ... dex.sxhtml
