koko Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Someone was accepted to nwu but rejected from cornell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meridionale Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Someone was accepted to nwu but rejected from cornell? They have the same ID number. While I was looking, I saw that the same ID number (different from the nwu/cornell person) had posted both an acceptance and rejection from Cornell, so I deleted both entries. If the person sees this, you are welcome to resubmit the honest answer. I don't understand people's motives in lying. Really -- what does it get you? Wahoo! You lied on an internet survey. That was fun for the whole 45 seconds it took you to type it in, so what now? Oh right, you're back to doing nothing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 @meridionale:both those entries are still there....and I am the guy who was infact rejected by cornell and accepted by northwestern. @koko: why is that such a surprise to you????Iit happens all the time....you cant truest US news rankings blindly...they even take into consideration the money a dept has...so if you get rejected by a univ with a lower rank it might mean there is a shortage of funds.

koko Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Please don't put words into my mouth. I didn't even say I was surprised. I was just wondering why these people just posted their results and never posted here in the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koko Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Congrats on CWRU and UCSD! I'm not familiar with UCSD MSE but I have a friend who go there for grad school. I think s/he is pretty happy with his/her choice. If us news ranking means anything, here it is. I agreee with some parts of it and am skeptical with others.

koko Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 So NWU and UIUC have scheduled the same dates for their visiting weekends.... I wonder why they do that. I've seen a few schools in the same city or state that schedule their visit dates back to back so students can attend both. If you were to choose, which school would you rather go visit on the officially scheduled dates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Has anyone heard from Umichigan ? If you have an offer have you/or are you planning to accept it ? Apparently Michigan offered 3-5 students Phd offers (out of ~ 200-300 applicants). There are another 10-15 maybe who are on a so called waiting list. It is quite unnerving since you are neither rejected nor accepted. Also, is MIT done offering PhDs ? When is it going to send reject letters since I havent seen any in the results page ? Finally has anyone heard from UCBerkeley ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 There is one MIT reject posted so far. MIT Materials Science And Engineering PhD Rejected 2006-03-06 (Postal Service) 2006-03-06 U How did you find out about Michigan offering only 3-5 phd offers? That's such a small number.

Guest waitinwaitingwaiting Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Why are they taking so long. A lot of people have gotten into many other good schools already at this point in the game. Hope they end up with the class they are hoping for. I hate waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fibrilo47 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 MIT has posted all results by postal mail this week. I am thinking if its this late 99% will be rejects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest avi Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 first congratulations on your admits. both are fine choices in terms of research. cal tech is such a small yet extremely tough university. they make only a few phds each program annually. so the quality of the phd is very high. if u wanna do research or being a faculty. cal tech is a clear choice. if you wanna end up going to industry, mit is better. cauze u don't have to spend that much time in the lab and on course work.
