This you should find really helpful https://engineering.tamu.edu/petroleum/people/staff Look for someone who is responsible for graduate admission process (aka Coordinator). Remember your department is the one who makes the decision, not Office of Admission. I will suggest you contact Betty Robbins or Eleanor Schuler. If they had too much to handle, they will forward your inquiries to their assistants. I suggest you do that now. Best of luck! In my case, I got the rejection letter from office of admission. Is it normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky14 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 @davincr I am sorry to hear that. Your department has sent out rejection letter to Office of admission. That's when they officially inform you. It isn't over yet. You can always re-apply next year. The first time I applied for grad school, I got rejected by ALL SCHOOLS, it wasn't even funny as I applied for some schools in Europe and some in America. All I got is rejection. The second time I didn't make the cut. This year I made it. So I suggest you to work hard and try again next year. You will get there. Best of luck!

abhi_sarmah Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Hello folks , Is there a group on social media ( Facebook / Whatsapp ) for people with fall admits to the MS programme in Petroleum at TAMU . I received my admit this week with the 2000 $ fellowship and the In State tuition rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderfly Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) The coordinator replied to me to say that they have not made a decision yet. I'm still hoping...

thunderfly Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) @alligator Yes, I am still waiting for the decision ! I hope that "No news, good news" is true ! Just to check something : When did you submit your application for TAMU ? Edited April 16, 2016 by thunderfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligator Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 @thunderflyI submitted the online application on January 30, but other required documents were received in mid February. I think this might cause the delay in getting the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kk90 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Hello everyone,I am an international student, I got an admit from TU delft in Netherlands and from University of Houston for Master in Petroleum Engineering for fall 16, both are without any scholarships. So, can anyone provide any inputs about the courses in these colleges, future prospects in terms of job and the research areas in which these colleges concentrate which can help me in finalizing a college. I know delft concentrates on reservoir and production engineering but could not find much info about Houston's research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAW1nn3r Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 GPA: 3.04/4 Undergrad Institution: University of Pittsburgh (BS Chemical Engineering) GRE: Q: 159 V: 156 A: 5.0/6 Experience: Undergraduate Research - RO/Nanofiltration Treatment of Drilling Waste Water (Spring 2016) Research Assistant - Worked with hydraulic fracturing professor with various rock mechanic applications (Summer 2016) Research - Working on delayed breakdown analysis of granite beams using Acoustic Emission data to characterize rate of breakdown (Current) Research Interest: Hydraulic Stimulation (fluids, rock mechanics, etc) Schools Applied: Colorado School of Mines Penn State Texas A&M Texas Tech University of Houston University of Louisiana at Lafayette University of Tulsa Admitted: University of Louisiana at Lafayette Rejected: University of Tulsa In the acceptance letter for UL Lafayette, they encouraged me to get in contact with the department head. I would like to establish contact without committing, so what should I include in my first email to the department head, without it being offensive that they're not my #1 pick? Also, decision deadlines were not included for UL and I know some of the schools don't send decision letters for spring admission until later in the fall so I would like to get a step ahead in contact. Despite my lower GPA/average GRE scores, I am still holding out hope for other schools because I have worked at gaining more research based experience to improve from my fall applications. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
