Luis Santos Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Hi, Does anyone have an answer about applications for spring 2016? Mine is showing as " Status: Submitted / This application has been submitted, and is currently under review". They have asked to fill some forms and resend some documents on November 23rd, no news since then. I have seen that they have a very confusing process of selection. With no nothing more concrete until now, I am with very low expectations of going this semester (as classes begin in less than a month). basna 1
aksiksi Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 Yep, same here. I applied for MSc in Microsystems Engineering. Radio silence for over a week now. It's getting too late honestly. I've applied to other colleges for Fall, but I'm not sure what I'll do for a whole semester if Masdar doesn't respond.
basna Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Ahh same for me too. And emailing them doesn't help as the person responding to the admissions email doesn't seem to know anything about the process. It's funny cause the semester starts on January 10 !! Please keep me posted if you hear any updates.
Luis Santos Posted December 14, 2015 Author Posted December 14, 2015 I have received yesterday an offer, they asked me to change from systems management to critical infrastructure, which I said yes. Now I need to provide medical documents and wait for the VISA. Hope there is time to do everything! aksiksi 1
aksiksi Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Congratulations! I wish you the best Did they contact you via email? Or did you have to check the status online?
Luis Santos Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 Thank you! Good luck to you! I was contacted via e-mail, asking me to go to on my application page and confirm that I accepted it. I believe there is no need to keep checking it every day (I was doing that and it was only making me more anxious lol)
basna Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 (edited) Congratulations Luis! Can you please Share your profile with us? GRE, TOEFL, GPA... if its okay with you? Also, did anyone else receive updates? Edited December 15, 2015 by basna
aksiksi Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 I called Masdar today and they said that all notifications should be out by the middle of next week.
Luis Santos Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 Sure basna, TOEFL: 111 (29- Reading, 28- Listening, 26- Speaking, 28- Writing) GPA: 3.83 (out of 5.0) GRE: Q 163 , V 150, A 3.0 Experience with the area working on it for one year.
basna Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) nope. I think we should just wait till mid of next week as aksiksi said. but by the looks of it, I don't think they will accept anyone from now on, especially not if you're not an Emirati or a resident in the uae .

aksiksi Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) I just got accepted into the Microsystems MSc program Edited December 17, 2015 by aksiksi Edit
basna Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 congratulations!!! can you please share your qualifications Aksiksi?

basna Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 I got an offer today but the email that I received was kind of vague. But they said they will send me an offer letter once I accept the offer online. just curious, what is written in the offer letter for those of you who got the letter?
aksiksi Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) Thanks Luis! And good luck to you too!@basna - It lists what further documents you need to submit by Jan 10: medical, GRE score report, TOEFL/IELTS, and official transcript. It also mentions which research project from the two you chose in the application you've been accepted as an RA for. And that you need to attend by Jan 2 or 3, if your visa is ready of course. Edited December 20, 2015 by aksiksi
aksiksi Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 No problem friend! And congratulations on being accepted!
basna Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 anyone require an original entry permit? I need the original visa mailed to me but they are not responding to my emails!
Khurram Aziz Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Any buddy got the visa already ?. I got an offer only today so not sure if I will be able to fulfill all the requirements in time .Can somebody tell me what exact requirements need to be fulfilled after accepting the offer Thanks in advance for your reply Regards Khurram Aziz
basna Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 hey Khurram, you didn't get the visa yet? All you need to do is fill out the medical forms. good luck
