IOEgirl Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Hey guys, I got the admission of Stanford MS program this afternoon.
mar Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I have applied to the PhD program of MS&E at Stanford. Why I still received nothing??????
IOEgirl Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I have applied to the PhD program of MS&E at Stanford. Why I still received nothing?????? maybe you are still under consideration. I got the PhD rejection letter from them 2 weeks ago.
gradwardBound Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I talked to UCLA DOTM today. They said that if you have not already been notified, that you have not been accepted nor put on the waiting list. They will be sending out all letters by the end of the month.
calstudent05 Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Hey guys, I got the admission of Stanford MS program this afternoon. Same here. Congrats!
IOEgirl Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Same here. Congrats! How many kids have Stanford enrolled to MS program this year?
IEOR Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Rejected from UCLA DOTM. Check yours here: https://www.gradadmissions.ucla.edu/new ... Status.asp
fakeworm Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Congratulations! To those who got admitted to Stanford MS&E, top notch! I'm still sad that I was rejected by'em last week though...
XiaoCai Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Rejected from UCLA DOTM. Check yours here: https://www.gradadmissions.ucla.edu/new ... Status.asp I just checked this link, and my status is still submited. Do you have the same status?
IEOR Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I just checked this link, and my status is still submited. Do you have the same status? On the left side of "Sumbitted" there is "Fall 2009". Go into that, type your password, then press "Continue".
gradwardBound Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 I spoke with CMU today. They said that they do not have an official wait list. However, you are still in limbo (read: wait listed) if you have not been notified of a rejection or acceptance yet.
mar Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Dear friends, Until now, I just received the admission from Columbia MS program without funding and offer from Ohio State University PhD program with full funding. Could you give me some suggestions about where I should go? The tuition and living expense of Columbia is too much for my family. And lots of persons told me that Columbia IEOR program is just focus on earning money and send out so many admission letters without funding. But Columbia is indeed better than OSU in every aspect. I don't know how to choose. Please give me some suggestion. Thank you very much!
billy85 Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 does anyone hear from Gatech? Is it a good idea to ask whether or not you are on the top of a waitlist? Thanks!!

I don't know how to choose. Please give me some suggestion. Thank you very much! It's totally up to your ultimate goal. If you have a plan to study IE/OR in Ph.D. level and to take teaching position, go to the ivy league school. After getting MS there, you will have much broader opportunity to get admissions for Ph.D. of more prestigious school such as MIT, Stanford, etc. However if your goal is just to get a job after any graduate degree, OSU would be better for you. In this global financial crisis, the financial aid from OSU is very precious opportunity. In my opinion, Columbia is not better than OSU in every aspect. For any graduate student, money rules!
mar Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 My career goal is getting a teaching position. I know maybe going to Columbia is the wise deicison. But I have to take time to think, because I can not promise I will be admitted to another top universty after graduation from Columbia. And the tuition is so expensive. Thank you, the guys who answer my question and send me a message. TO zkdhtm, in what aspect, you think columbia is not better than OSU? Curious about that.
IEOR Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 does anyone hear from Gatech? Is it a good idea to ask whether or not you are on the top of a waitlist? Thanks!! I contacted Gatech early this week. They said my application is still under review. I guess they started reviewing the applications later than other universities because their deadline was Feb 15. They just gave responses to students who submitted very early. In my opinion, they do not have a waitlist for now...

I hope to know how much chance I have to receive financial aid from Ohio State University. PH

IOEgirl Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Has anyone heard anything from Cornell or Purdue? I emailed Cornell yesterday and got informed that they are still making decision and my decision might not be made until early April....
Gstring Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I've got admitted to MS program of IOE at UMich, and MS program of IEOR at Columbia. Now I wondered which would be better for me. It seems that Columbia is very good at finance related fields, it is in NY City, while the program lasts only 2 semesters and the tuition and living expense are really costly. On the other hand UMich has comprehensive research areas in IE, tuition is comparably low, and the program might last longer? Also, right now I'm not sure whether I will go for a phd degree. So any suggestions for me? Thanks!
IEOR Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Has anyone heard anything from Cornell or Purdue? I emailed Cornell yesterday and got informed that they are still making decision and my decision might not be made until early April.... Cornell said the same thing to me when I contacted them two weeks ago. I guess they are waiting to see the responses of students who already got accepted. or may be they are lazy to send the rejects honestly, I have not seen any rejects from Cornell PhD so far...
IEOR Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 By the way, am I the only person here who applied to University of Florida ISE PhD program? They will announce some of the offers in a week, I am trying to be optimistic...

gradwardBound Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 Just got into GaTech. It is true that you get two packets when accepted: one from admissions and one from the department. On the website it said that the decision had been made and there was a footnote that two packets were being sent my way.

Did they email you or you learned by chance when you checked the website? I just checked mine- it says no decision has been made. You are probably still thinking which one to choose. Are you leaning towards Cornell or Gatech?
