Leo Han Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I have been accepted as a PhD student by the CSE program a week ago. I received my admission letter a week after a phone interview. All PhD students are guranteed for funding at UMich. This is one of my top choices, and their research groups have many researches that are aline with my undergraduate researches.

Leo Han Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I've been admitted, I heard about it a week or so ago. I was phoned by the prof there, I expected it to be an interview and he started off by saying I'd been admitted. He said though that the admissions process wasn't finished yet, so it seems like they do admissions in waves. Apparently I was one of their top applicants which surprised me - my grades are kind of borderline for even getting in to a top grad school (My GREs were good, but so were everyone's that I know - I didn't take any subject GREs, don't know if they're even offered in my country). My research interests matched a bunch of the profs there really well, though, and research experience seems to be all they really cared about. Congrats...Hopefully see you on campus during the campus visit day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
