lhlh Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Has anyone heard anything about anything from the department? The wait is killing, especially when it comes to big decisions, like where to go for grad school. Anything you know is a help here, at least I could have planned my summer accordingly.... (stanford starts in late Sep., and most others in Aug)
optimistic engineer Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Atalst!!!! Some one else that has applied to Stanford ERE. Nope.heard nothing up till now.Called Joanna yesterday and she said final decisions will be out by the end of March.Now does that mean that they are making decisions and the decision cycle will be over by the end of march or maybe it means that all all decisions will be communicated in bulk by the end of march.I DONT KNOW. Faith is the Word buddy. . . .
lhlh Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 Last time I checked, she said, "by March"...anyway, let's cross our fingers... .Called Joanna yesterday and she said final decisions will be out by the end of March.

mrFox Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 What did you guys apply for? PhD or Master? or the very rare Engineer ?
Lithium Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 What did you guys apply for? PhD or Master? or the very rare Engineer ? i applied for the MS program. has anyone yet been updated about his/her decision status ?... i havnt received any such mail...or call.. does anyone know...by when do they let u know about the same..??
lhlh Posted March 17, 2011 Author Posted March 17, 2011 i applied for the MS program. has anyone yet been updated about his/her decision status ?... i havnt received any such mail...or call.. does anyone know...by when do they let u know about the same..?? I applied to the PHD, cannot afford a MS, sigh... Yesterday when I checked with them, the word was "by the end of March".... Do you guys have any insight on how competitive it is? Personally I don;t know anyone who is applying to this program, or it is just because I am a ChemE.

Do you guys have any insight on how competitive it is? Personally I don;t know anyone who is applying to this program, or it is just because I am a ChemE. i called up joanna yesterday and she said...'End of march'' ...i even tried to be smart and asked her how many positions do they still have to be fillled(whats the harm in trying) she said...she cant disclose it. It is very competitive,no doubt about that...but 1 thing thats appreciated abat Stanford is they dont belive in norms...i mean u never know what part/thot of u they might be impressed wid. best of luck to all. tc
optimistic engineer Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 End of March is what I got to know too. Joanna also wrote that admissions are on rolling basis which means decisions would be made as each application is reviewed. If only they would have mentioned it on there website so that people would have applied early and save us the torturous wait. I thought that there was adequate funding for Master and PhD students in the ERE Stanford.That is why the program is so competitive since there are small number of positions. Am I wrong???

Am I wrong??? You might be right. I am a ChemE, so I assumed there is no funding for MS, but clearly there is. Anyway, I wanted a PHD all along.
optimistic engineer Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 What research group are you guys looking for in ERE?
lhlh Posted March 18, 2011 Author Posted March 18, 2011 What research group are you guys looking for in ERE? I did not think of contacting professors, and have no idea which research group I might prefer. I will just roll with it....

Hi, Did you guys see the "results", it seems they started giving out decisions... I saw 4 rej there.... I am feeling nervous

(got accepted at TAMU Pet.E. and Princeton Chem E. though). Did you guys hear back from UT Austin by any chance?

opefad Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 I also applied for the MS program in ChemE. I decided to call the department for information and i was told by 1st of april.
can'twaitanylonger Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 I heard bad news from Joanna... Oh well, I have UT Austin and Texas A&M to choose from.
mrFox Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 I heard bad news from Joanna... Oh well, I have UT Austin and Texas A&M to choose from. Is anyone here still waiting? I've yet to hear from Joanna. Emailed her 2 days ago. She said they will let me know as soon as the result rolls out... Is that good or bad?

Is that good or bad? i called up joanna yesterday...and she said "we have been giving out decisions lately...so if u havnt received any mails/e-mails be patient for atleast a week" ...so that we know whether it was a lucky gamble or just a redundant attempt. ... I m still waiting... fingures X'ed.
