VashtaNerada Posted January 15, 2022 Author Share Posted January 15, 2022 So, someone at my uni got a Cornell acceptance a few weeks ago, and I haven't heard back from Caltech about interviews, so I'm betting on rejection from both. Still, not upset, got excellent offers from Virginia Tech, Michigan, Iowa State, and Minnesota that are all worth strongly considering, and the west/east coasts are a bit uncomfy for me as a midwestern gal.

VenomMan35 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Does anyone know how bad it is to not have any kind of nomination letter/recommendation for admission? Had no prior contacts (reached out via email and got some responses but nothing significant, at LA, SD, UCSB, and Cal) and I’m just worried about acceptance with seeing so many others get nomination letters/contact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chemnerd101 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I'm not sure how expensive the Bay Area is exactly since I've lived in the midwest my entire life, but is 38k a good stipend considering the cost of living in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
