rooney_rocks Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 I was wondering if anyone is still waiting to hear from these universities for Ph.D in EE (Fall 2015) - University of Washington - Virginia Tech - Washington State University - UT Dallas - UMN - UofU
rooney_rocks Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 So everyone already heard back from these universities I guess
shinyhare Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 I'm an undergrad at UW; I know there have been acceptances, and the professors I know of are either finishing or done with their recruiting. There's variation between professors though, I would email your POI at UW to see what the status is.
Robo_Lizard Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I got accepted at UW in PhD in EE, but no funds info. =( POI doesn't have money for me. =((( I applied as well in Washington State and didn't heard a word from them. I'm waiting mostly for UC Davis, UC Irvine, Oregon State and Washington State decisions.
rooney_rocks Posted February 26, 2015 Author Posted February 26, 2015 @ eragon: I am in the same boat as u for UMN. My POI replied saying first round of offers is already given out @ Robo_Lizard & @ shinyhare: I am still waiting for UW as well. Indeed I have seen quite some admits from UW ECE. But good to keep in touch with you guys . So far, I have an admit from ASU. No funding though.

But good to keep in touch with you guys . So far, I have an admit from ASU. No funding though. I think UW ECE can still accept people and some accepted people could decline their offers. I was invited on Visit Days in UW, on 5-6th of March. POI from UW contacted with me, told me that because I'm considered as international student (even though I have been living in US for 3 years already) because of my background, I need to pass Versant Speaking Test to get TA, it's the only option to get funding for me. =( It's kind of sad for me, I'm afraid that I'm not gonna pass this test. =((( Basically, I believe without funding it's not an option for me to come to UW. =( But I will try to pass it in any case.

shinyhare Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Robo_lizard, just curious but who is your POI at UW?
okezieowen Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Still waiting to hear from Virginia Tech. Applied to the PhD program with the ECE department.
rooney_rocks Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 I just got email notification regarding Ph.D admit from UT Dallas . No mention of funding though.
Robo_Lizard Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Robo_lizard, just curious but who is your POI at UW? Sam Burden - he is a new professor at UW. if you were on Visit Days at UW, we might met =)) I got acceptance from NEU but still no funding. Very weird accept from University of Nevada. Basically, I got some acceptances, but all of them without funding options. I think it's because they want to give me TA, and can't due to low TOEFL speaking subscore.

rooney_rocks Posted March 13, 2015 Author Posted March 13, 2015 I got admit with full funding from University of Utah, and reject from UMN this week. Still waiting for UW, WSU and VT.
rooney_rocks Posted March 16, 2015 Author Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) @eragon: Yeah, UMN gave mass rejects recently. Did anyone hear back from VT/WSU ? Guess they have given out 1st round of offers. Edited March 16, 2015 by rooney_rocks
Robo_Lizard Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 didn't hear from WSU at all! But got acceptance to Oregon State.
rooney_rocks Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) @ Robo_Lizard: Congrats on your Oregon admit. Has anyone heard back from UW ? It seems they will declare their decisions in the next couple of weeks. Any chances that some of these can be admits ? Edited March 22, 2015 by rooney_rocks

It seems they will declare their decisions in the next couple of weeks. Any chances that some of these can be admits ? thanks =) I'm still fighting for funding at UW. Somehow I passed this awful speaking test with machine. =) haha POI told me that he's working on it...I'm still hoping!!! Got acceptance from Tufts, with tuition scholarship. I'm gonna decline this one soon, might be somebody else will get it and would be happy. =) Edited March 28, 2015 by Robo_Lizard
Robo_Lizard Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Any news? =) I emailed to WSU, but they told me that they are still considering...It's almost 15th of April!!! Edited April 14, 2015 by Robo_Lizard
rooney_rocks Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 Guys, any of you heard back from VT or WSU PhD ECE ?
