packybear Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Does anyone have any ideas about the admission process of CEE, UC Berkeley? According to the posts on the result search pages, it seems they do not send out all the results of a division at the same time. Also it seems they admit most PhD students later than the master students. I am puzzled by this and still anxiously waiting for the results...Please share the information if you know, thanks a lot!
chemeng Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Hi everyone Has anyone heard from DUKE??? Do you know when they make their decisions??
jacket24 Posted March 6, 2015 Author Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Here are some results that I compiled for Duke CEE PhD. From the looks of it, it will probably be bad news if we don't hear before April. I'm expecting something within the next 3 weeks...hopefully sooner but they did extend their application deadline this year so who knows. The only thing I've seen posted on the results page so far was one invitation for a campus visit. http://imgur.com/28MrXP6 Edited March 6, 2015 by jacket24
Sidiki Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) I was asked to come to for a campus visit at Duke (applied to the PhD program). So I think they have started reaching out to applicants. But I was also the one person who posted so who knows maybe they got to me early. Edited March 6, 2015 by Sidiki
jacket24 Posted March 6, 2015 Author Posted March 6, 2015 When is the visit? Were you contacted by a POI or the department?
drstruct Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Anyone heard from CEE at UIUC? They sent out an email saying that most decisions that include funding are made in March, while most decisions without funding are made in April.
Aa1 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Just got an email from MIT - I'm in !!!! So excited! And it came just as I wanted to write here that I have a feeling that this is gonna be the Civil-Eng week I'm still on shortlist for funding though, does anyone know how quickly they usually give answers for funding? Good-luck to all of you who are still waiting. Edited March 9, 2015 by Aa1
jacket24 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 I just got my first acceptance from Carnegie Mellon so I guess you're right. So excited.
Nick_Zou Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I just got my first acceptance from Carnegie Mellon so I guess you're right. So excited. Wow, congratulations! Hope more good news are on the way.
TheWaitingMan Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Congratulation on your acceptance! I guess each area of studying gives answer separately, so there's still hope for me... I am happy to see that you have been admitted to the only place you applied. Although I am somehow hopeless at this point I am happy to see that you got in, congrats.
rowl969 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I've only heard back from four out of the ten schools I applied, and I'm expecting the rest this week. Has anyone heard anything from UT Austin or Georgia Tech (structures)?
Perhaps Later Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I've only heard back from four out of the ten schools I applied, and I'm expecting the rest this week. Has anyone heard anything from UT Austin or Georgia Tech (structures)? Nothing form Georgia Tech. UT Austin sent decision letters in the second week of Feb and few more last week.
Aa1 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I am happy to see that you have been admitted to the only place you applied. Although I am somehow hopeless at this point I am happy to see that you got in, congrats. Thank you! To be honest, it's the only place in the US that I applied to, but I'm already a graduate student at a university in my homeland. It's a very well respected university itself, so I just applied to the school of my dreams, and if they wouldn't accept me I always could finish my master and try again applying for PhD. Still not a word from Berkeley?
Iceiceice Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Hi !!! I have applied to MIT, GeorgiaTech, Northwestern, UIUC and Texas Austin in Construction Materials. I am yet to get any results. When can I expect to get my results?
rowl969 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 I applied to Georgia Tech and UT Austin, but in structures. I haven't heard anything back, but I'm guessing decisions will be out either this week or the next!
jacket24 Posted March 17, 2015 Author Posted March 17, 2015 We're getting very close to the finish line...29 days until final decisions are due. Hoping for good news this week.
Neagan Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Did undergrad at UW Seattle in Civil Engineering, applied MS in Structural to Berkeley, UW Seattle, and UC San Diego. Currently accepted to UCSD but haven't heard from Berkeley or UW Seattle. Anyone heard from either?
Perhaps Later Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Just heard back from Georgia Tech (Structures). Good luck to other applicants.
rowl969 Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Heard back from Georgia Tech as well, but no funding available. Which is pretty similar to a rejection because I'm out of state. I'm assuming at this stage of the game, no admission decisions will be able to offer funding.
Sidiki Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Has anyone heard back about Stanford MS fellowships? Last year they'd heard within a week but I don't think they gave us a deadline this year.
drstruct Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 They said they expect to make decisions on financial aid applications by the end of March.
saulecivil Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Hi there! Congrats to those who have already been accepted and good luck to applicants who's still waiting for decisions. As of myself, I am applicant in field of Structural Engineering. Have no idea how you post this accepted/rejected thing at the bottom, so I will place it right in this letter. =) Accepted: UCSD, UWashington at Seattle, CU Boulder, UPitt Rejected: Georgia Tech (saaad) Interviewed: Columbia Still waiting: Purdue (fingers crossed!), UBC Vancouver, Virginia Tech I wonder if any of you, guys, have created a thread for accepted students to any of these universities. I would be more than glad to participate in discussion pertaining to the program features and housing related issues, as I am still not sure which program to choose. Thanks!
BeeTife Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Just heard from CEE at UIUC. I've been recommended for admission, but no funding offer. Quite disappointed, considering that I was in contact with a faculty member and he seemed pretty interested. Guess he changed his mind. Don't even know if i should send him a mail informing him or not. Whew!
