DJLamar Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 I applied and haven't heard anything. At the suggestion of my current undergrad research advisor I sent an email to the prof I'm most interested in working with saying I got in at another place and asking if he was taking on new students next year, and if he knew when admissions decisions would be given out. Unfortunately the prof I want is on leave this semester and wasn't able to tell me much of anything :\ ...though he did say that he might take on a couple of new students next semester, even though he doesn't really know right now what his funding situation will be.

I didn't see many acceptance or rejection from Princeton CS. It made me think they have a small department and intake rate is very low. ( probably like jhu)
DJLamar Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 That seems to make sense to me. I know there are a grand total of four machine learning people there (half of which seem to do bioinformatics, more or less), which is a fairly small amount, I think.
mallu Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 do you know how big is the department? their intake size? I am not sure about Princeton's PhD intake. But, I think they have a small Computer Science department. Regarding MSE CS, it seems that Princeton restarted its MS program last year. Last year they gave out 5 admits. 3 joined. This year, they plan to admit a similarly small number. I found this on the Princeton's Website : http://gradschool.pr...ssion_stats.pdf
chocker Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 that's a good link. Thank you mallu !!
