Hello everyone, I am applying for a Ph.D. in ECE. I have written my SOP and looking for someone to review my SOP. If any of you can help me out, I can PM my SOP. Thanks.

Nope, we are both from Turkey. Any other ideas?

Thanks newms, the webpage you mentioned has some critical information. Shortly, we will not mention about our situation during our applications, but if one of us gets accepted, other's dept will be immediately notified. Having said these, is being married different than being engaged for the reviewers of our applications? What I understand is that, solution of the two-body problem is not related to the level of the relationship. It is just about informing the dept about my attendance to the program being dependent on my SO's acceptance. Are we on the same page here?

Hello everyone, I will be applying to a grad school with my fiancee for Fall 2011. We are hoping to get accepted from the same university. We are currently in the same department (ECE) and we will apply to the same department. Our specialization areas are different, though. What I would like to know is that, if one of us gets accepted from a department, will it create any advantage for the other? Would things be different if we are married (having the same last name) or just engaged (having different last names) during applications? We can marry right away if it will help us during admission process. Otherwise, we are planning to get married at summer, after the decisions come out. If we get accepted from schools that are far away, we will probably not be able to attend grad school. It is really tough Would you recommend stating this special situation in our letters? Any help will be appreciated.

Finally, I got an acceptance from UCSB for an MS with emphasis in Communications, Control & Signal Processing. However, there is no word of funding. Did anyone hear about the financial aid opportunities of UCSB??

There are 3 rejections and 1 admission from UCSB on the board. I still did not get an answer. Lord please please please Take away my anxiety

I am also waiting for Harvard. They said results would come out on mid-March but there is still no word of decision. Anyone has news from UCSD or UCSB? There are 3 rejections and an admission from UCSB on the board but I still did not get an answer. It looks like nobody has god damn clue about UCSD :roll:
