nonkreon Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Did everyone waiting here for ESOP results have their interview? I only got the official admission offer a month ago, but no ESOP interview. Just want a notification of ESOP, so that I can decide where to go : I +1, exactly the same here
msturan Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I did not have an interview for ESOP, nor had my roommate who also applied for it. I have mailed master@ethz... but no answer yet.
akospasztor Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I did not have an interview for ESOP, nor had my roommate who also applied for it. I have mailed master@ethz... but no answer yet. Â can you please post here any info about the ESOP when you receive answer from ETH?
msturan Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Sure I can! However, it is highly possible that neither I nor my roomie will get a notification about it by tomorrow evening.
Gamler Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Sure I can! However, it is highly possible that neither I nor my roomie will get a notification about it by tomorrow evening. I made two inquiries regarding other admission issues to master@ethz. For both inquires, they replied within 48 hrs. Not sure if the scholarship office do the same. Waiting for your update! Thanks.
tudor Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I sent yesterday an e-mail to stipendien@rektorat.ethz.ch... look: ----- Dear Sir or Madam, My name is Tudor Pahomi and I was officially accepted (by e-mail) as a Physics MSc. student at ETH on 24th of February. I was wondering whether you could inform me about the approximate date when the scholarships decisions (for Physics MSc.) will come out. Thank you very much for your time. Kind Regards, Tudor Pahomi ----- Dear Tudor The conference of the ESOP commission will be at the beginning of March. After the conference the rector must authorize the decisions. So you would have an answer middle of March 2015. You have time to confirm the ETH admission. The Admission Office is informed. Best regards Ladina Aliesch ----- This message is copy-pasted from one in February...
msturan Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I've sent a similar mail to stipendien, we'll see tomorrow if they reply.Â

After the conference the rector must authorize the decisions.  So you would have an answer middle of March 2015. You have time to confirm the ETH admission. The Admission Office is informed.  Best regards Ladina Aliesch    Exactly the same copy-paste e-mail from February or January whatever. Mid-March means we have one week of hope I guess?
tudor Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Ahahaha ) probably we can still hope...just a little Somebody was admitted today at Mech Eng, so maybe the ESOPs are still on the table
CosimoPiovasco Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Would you mind telling how does the letter of department scholarship look like? Did they mention it in the letter of admission or in a separated letter? My Admission process was quite strange... I haven't received any mail but I received my admission documents on Feb 9th. Inside the envelope I found my registration form, a letter with the confirmation of the acceptance and an "Addendum" in which the PTL (Particle Techinology Laboratory) Group offered me 6000 CHF scholarship and 15000 CHF assistantship for two years if at the end of every semester my average is 5/6. I applied for Process Eng MSc. Edited March 15, 2015 by CosimoPiovasco

I guess the person in charged of admission of Process Eng. doesn't use email at all. I received the same package as yours except the addendum. I believe your grade is much better than mine. The support you get is offered by the research group. It is independent of the rectorate and it means people in that research group is strongly interested in you. Your assigned personal tutor is a professor from PTL group, right?

MichaelM Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hello everyone! First I want to thank everyone for all the valuable information you all have been posting. As of lately it has become my morning ritual to first check my email and then this forum.. I had my ESOP interview back in early February, but did not receive my admissions email (still no letter) until March 9th. Now I'm just waiting to hear about the ESOP... Has anyone besides jmlribeiro or llucrul heard anything?? I'm still not convinced whether it is a good sign or a bad sign I haven't heard anything, but it certainly isn't a great sign. If they are consistent with releasing information on Wednesdays maybe we'll hear something tomorrow! All this waiting is driving me crazy!
tudor Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hey, I sent other e-mail to them and I was answered: Unfortunately we are not able to communicate the results about the ESOP/MSP until 15 March 2015. We will do it as soon as possible, but it will last until the end of the next week at least. I beg you for your patience. Â I do not know if this means we are not able to communicate the negative results. Maybe it is about all the results except for Computer Science department. Note that there were people receiving acceptance e-mails at the end of last week for Mechanical Engineering, so personally I won't lose hope until a bunch of results come out.
krisztinagy Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hey Tudor, Â When was this e-mail sent to you? Do you think they mean the end of this week (March 20)?
tudor Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Sorry, I forgot to mention. This was last Friday, March 13th, so it will take "at least" until the end of the current week (March 20th). Â What programme did you apply for? This question is also for MichaelM, if he doesn't mind telling.
krisztinagy Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Thanks for your answer. Electrical Engineering + Information Technology MSc
weaver159 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Did anyone who applied for Electrical Engineering got an interview?
msturan Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Two people here, applying for Robotics, Systems and Control and no interview.
jmlribeiro Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I was contacted today by the rectorate of ETH Zurich. They told me that they have mailed the official scholarship decision to my home address.
Gamler Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I was contacted today by the rectorate of ETH Zurich. They told me that they have mailed the official scholarship decision to my home address. Thanks for the update. I assume no response actually means rejection. Disappointed.
nonkreon Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I was contacted today by the rectorate of ETH Zurich. They told me that they have mailed the official scholarship decision to my home address. Have they told you the decision, is it positive or negative? Did they send an e-mail to contact you, how did they do that? If it's positive, congratulations!
tudor Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) @nonkreon  Hey guys, I got an e-mail from ETH telling me that I was awarded an Excellence Scholarship Edited March 20, 2015 by tudor
nonkreon Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) @nonkreon Oops, forgot that one, sorry about the unnecessary post :/ So do we still have hope or are we, at least most probably, not granted the scholarship? Edited March 20, 2015 by nonkreon
