    Thanks. At Lehigh, I would have to take a whole year of leveling courses (six of them). It would be nice to be able to do some research while getting these out of the way. Maybe it won't have to be this long elsewhere. Besides physics, I took a bunch of math courses, as well, plus econ and comp sci... but, yes, I really want to go into structural, so I'll be happy to go anywhere with the best offer. All the best in your applications, too. I do hope you get better news from the other programs!

    Undegrad: Williams College 2010 Majors: Physics, Music GPA: 3.53 GRE: M 790, V 690, AW 4.0 Research: theoretical and experimental physics (honors thesis in optical fiber applications research) Teaching: TA for two physics courses, resource center/peer tutor in physics Publications: co-author on paper in Phys. Rev. (quantum entanglement) (not sure if this counts for CEE) Awards: co-recipient departmental physics prize for research and teaching, sigma xi (probably not a big deal...) Current: teaching mathematics at private boarding school (OPT STEM) (I'm not sure what else to include in profile...) Thoughts: would have loved to take some basic CE courses at nearby institutions (audit or credit), but no time/no paperwork. Seems like it's tough to break into CE with physics background and not-so-stellar GPA...we'll see! (By the way, no funding for Lehigh MS yet, but I am grateful to have been accepted anyway!!)

    I'm an international applicant, too, but currently in the US. Applied to MS at Illinois and GA Tech, too, but haven't heard back, either. Good luck!

    Anyone apply to Purdue MS? I feel I'm on a waitlist, since I got an email a while ago telling me that the decision would be emailed by mid-Feb. Haven't heard anything to date.

    Sorry to hear this. Don't feel too bad though. You may get a surprise. Hopefully everything turns out well.

    Definitely. Hopefully news will start to filter in. Yeah, Princeton is extremely selective and it's a small program.

    Thanks! Hoping for good news. Good luck!

    Anyone hear back from JHU yet? Feel like I jinxed the board with my first post.

    Just got rejected from Princeton. Tough.
