Notes
Undergrad from a top 15 engineering program (flagship state school). Had a 3.5 GPA, 2 publications as a primary author, research experience, internships. Received a canned rejection email at 9:15AM this morning (Friday, 2.26.2021) that said: Dear Carson Cortez: Thank you for your interest in the Aeronautics and Astronautics graduate program at MIT. You clearly have many strengths, but unfortunately we cannot offer you admission to our department at this time. Our committee selects from a large and talented pool of applicants each year (this year fewer than 8% of applicants were admitted), and we are truly sorry that we cannot extend to you, and many other strong students, the invitation to study with us for September 2021. We wish you much success as you take the next steps in your studies and your career. Sincerely, Graduate Admissions Committee Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics MIT At least I can rest easy now and move on to my backup schools, which are in a much better (and sunnier) location anyway!
