husky07 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Looks like CMU just sent out its rejects. I got two, (RI and COS) :cry:
kbupz Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Looks like CMU just sent out its rejects. I got two, (RI and COS) :cry: Once I didn't get the letter from RI when I knew they were already sent out, I pretty much knew it was over. So mine was not at all unexpected. Wish some place would let me in though, by clerical error or something.
Jakrabite Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I knew CMU was coming but the burusque letter didnt mend my ego much.
michigantrumpet Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 1600 applicants :shock: For which program(s)? All of CS?
leogk Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 1600 applicants :shock: That's caused by the fact that CMU SCS has some interdisciplinary programs such as robotics and HCI. A lot of people with other engineering backgrounds (even art,too) apply to those probrmas (ex. ME, EE, BME, or Physics majors to Robotics, and art, or design to HCI).
inactive_since_inf Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 For which program(s)? All of CS? yes, some remarks made by the 'CMU-RI not-selected' applicants on the results page...
csApplicant Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 does anyone know anything about cmu's Software Engineering Institute?
kryoneri18 Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Hey, guys I was one of the many rejections but that was at the Machine Learning Department. I have applied to Computer Science too, but till now I haven't received anything. The problem is at the online system they say they have sent all decisions. Does anybody know anything on that or hasn't received his/her decision yet?
leogk Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Hey kryoneri18. You may need to read the rejection email carefully. As far as I know, no matter how many programs you applied to, the rejection notification is send out by scs in a single email. I think the email may mention both of them.
kryoneri18 Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 I've already thought about that, but you can read it too...: >>I regret to inform you that we are unable to admit you to the Ph.D. in Machine Learning program at Carnegie Mellon. We received nearly 1600 applications this year. Our graduate >>programs can support only a limited number of new students. Unfortunately, we could admit only a fraction of the applicants, even though many more had strong qualifications. >>We wish you the best in your future endeavors. I don't think I'm missing something...Any other clue...?
inactive_since_inf Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Hi kryoneri18, call them up, first thing this Monday... From what you have posted, its only a reject for ML.
