[What schools am I qualified for?]

Hi all,

@nvseal, would you please tell me about the masters funding situation at UT Austin?

Or any other people out there pursuing masters please let me know the funding situation. That will help me stay updated.

Thank you.

hi saicharanp,

Is your MS coursework or a research MS?

Did you offer funding for your MS at ASU? just for my information.

thanks.

ok..gonna admit im wrong.

A research MS would be ok. But the funding?? I heard that UoU and UIUC fund their MS students rght? what are my chances of getting into one of them for a MS?

Thanks!

hey no worries! that's ok

As far as what I heard If you are a fresh graduate and applying for graduate studies they won't look at your research experiences really. May be I'm wrong though. But because you don't have research experience does not imply that you don't have the research potential.

Anyway I am happy if I get into something in 20 to 30. that's pretty cool.

Thanks!

Hi,

im not sure whether they are good or bad (3x% range acceptance rate). yes you right, only research experience would be my final year research project.

Of LORs, lets say 2 are average and one is good.

No special reasons of selecting UC schools other than my love for CA and its being a technical paradise which I guess has greater scope for opportunities.

have a fighting chance at the others.

oh, it makes me feel terrible!

So in your opinion what ranking range should I focus on in general ( if PhD) ?

Thanks!

first something about me..

i am currently a final year CS student finishing degree by September/Oct 2012. So i am targeting the fall 2013. I want to do a PhD but a research MS WITH FUNDING would be ok as well.

current GPA (non US) - 3.85 (outa 4.25 so after converting all A+'s which are 4.25 in to 4, I get my GPA as somewhere around 3.75)

ranked in the 94th percentile of the batch.

2 conference (international) and 1 journal (local) papers. (out of 3 , 2 are survey papers)

LORs would be unknown

What are my chances of getting in to a one of following UC schools if my GRE score is

1290 (790Q, 500V, 3.5AW) ?.

University list in decreasing precedence.

-CalTech

-UCLA

-UCSD

Thanks in advance!
