euphonius38 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I might give them a call, but not expecting much either since they are probably really tight on funding. I'm international, so chances are pretty slim. I need to know so I can coordinate visits to other schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnlikelyGrad Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 yes. i was shocked too. a professor called me. i hope you hear from them as well. I'm starting to think that the only way I'll get in is if one of you goes to visit and decides not to go after all. So hurry and visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthelazors Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Berkeley started admission in late December. I wouldn't give up on it yet though... because unlike some of you I haven't heard from Columbia! Anyone apply to Chemical Physics at Columbia? I haven't heard back, and I'm wondering if that's due to it being Chemical Physics and not just Chemistry. I'm Physical/Materials. I love lasers and magnets.

lovesthelazors Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Is anyone going to any of these visits? Madison: March 6 Berkeley: March 12th? Cornell: March 27th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncandam Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I called Berkeley, and they said they couldn't offer me a position (sad face)... It's ok tho, this is my first rejection. Btw, I'm going to Cornell on 27th of March too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salonga Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 did anyone apply to rutgers (new brunswick) or university of maryland? i have not heard a word from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthelazors Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Well, when you go to Cornell, if you meet "C" (my nickname) that'd be me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncandam Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Haha, it's funny that my friends at school call me "D". I will be at Cornell on 27th of March, but I haven't bought my ticket yet. Gonna do it soon! I think we have to do it through the airticket agent thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthelazors Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Yeah, I'm going to call them tomorrow. Any idea of who you want to meet? I'm thinking Marohn as my top choice, but I also have to go look up some of the condensed matter people who were recommended to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncandam Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 So far I have Coates as my priority. I'm going for nanomaterials, so I have to look more carefully onto it also. Is Cornell your first choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthelazors Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Not sure yet. It's one of my top three for sure. See, I never though I'd even get into Berkeley, so my top choices were thrown out of whack. Coates is also on my list, actually. My research adviser highly recommended him.
