ShortLong Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Nope, but their website says we should know by March 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssingh Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 I guess it's going to be that last week of Feb routine again. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uvaes Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 From what i saw on this forum, the admission notifications were sent no sooner than feb 23rd last year. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssingh Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know if MIT prefers terminal masters applicants over people who indicate a PhD as their final objective? Edited February 21, 2013 by ssingh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnipenny Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Oh, one acceptance posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortLong Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Two acceptances posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssingh Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 I only see 1 Masters and 2 PhD. ShortLong - are you applying for PhD or Masters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam_sister Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I also saw the one Masters offer posted. Getting nervous now! Any idea when the visit day is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ankit.shah Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 How long do these admit cycles last? Is it a few days or most of the admits were sent out at once yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssingh Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 I doubt most admits were sent out yesterday. Usually takes a few days to filter out (from past years records). No clue about visit day - not mentioned on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam_sister Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Every time I get an email my heart rate goes through the roof. But it's never from Beth Marois, it's usually just stupid spam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortLong Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I applied for Masters with intention to continue on for PhD. It is nerve wracking, but I am not going to think about it. I am going to visit Georgia Tech today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam_sister Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Please post about your trip to GA Tech. I am also considering visiting in the coming month since it's my first choice so far! (MIT pending!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnipenny Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Hey guys, weird things here. I emailed Beth this afternoon, asking:"it doesn't necessarily mean I'm rejected if I wouldn't hear back from you about my admission decision this week, right?" She told me: "No one has received a decision this week, as they are not finalized, so that's correct - it does not mean that you are rejected." SO, what happened to those who posted acceptance? From their POI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From their POI? Could be POI, as the best candidates often get notified early. Another possibility is a fake entry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(MIT pending!) It has been an awesome day at GA Tech! The campus is really pretty, the facilities are really nice (even if most of the buildings are old on the outside, there are a lot of nice equipment) and it seems like they really care about their grad students.

ankit.shah Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Well There were 3 notifications. 3 PhDs and 1 Masters. One of the PhDs mentioned the presidential fellowship. That could hardly be POI contacting them. Still hope for the best. This however does look like an appropriate time for the results to come out (second to last week of Feb). Could you quote the email from Beth Marois if you dont mind Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam_sister Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Last year they were posted on the 28th February, followed by Caltech on 1st March. Hopefully on Thursday we'll all be delighted with our acceptances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully on Thursday we'll all be delighted with our acceptances Umm Are you sure? I guess only the wait lists were posted for 28th Feb. The accepts were earlier in Feb. I believe you are talking about MIT? Any ways good luck to us all for MIT accepts :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you quote the email from Beth Marois if you dont mind Thanks "No one has received a decision this week, as they are not finalized, so that's correct - it does not mean that you are rejected." is quoted directly from her email. She also said: "Our faculty are still working on making decisions and we are still on track to notify applicants via email on or very close to March 1." when I ask her how long it will take her to send out all the admissions -- will her send out more MS admissions next week.

Thank you very much - but it sounds a bit weird that although she said "no one has received a decision this week", she will send "MORE" MS admissions next week. Anyway it seems that we still have good hope for the admissions decisions. Good luck to all applicants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway it seems that we still have good hope for the admissions decisions. Good luck to all applicants! She didn't say that she will send MORE admissions. That's what I asked. By answering my question, she replied that faculty are still working. Hope the best for all of us. Edited February 24, 2013 by mnipenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zecone13 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) I don't know what to think :/ It seems strange that 4 troll admits would pop up on results at once even if it is 1 person posting them. I hope that's the case though. I don't think I can wait another week to hear! Edited February 25, 2013 by zecone13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
