Summary
The Stanford University Graduate School Admission results for the past five years reflect a highly competitive environment with diverse outcomes across several programs. Computer Science saw both waitlisting and acceptance for PhD candidates, indicating a selective but attainable program. Mechanical Engineering experienced multiple rejections, pointing to stringent criteria. Electrical Engineering welcomed numerous master's candidates, suggesting a strong acceptance rate for these applicants. Economics showed successful waitlist acceptances, reflecting a hopeful trend for late-stage applicants. Civil and Environmental Engineering had several interview opportunities, highlighting its competitive nature. Bioengineering and Translational Research programs predominantly reported rejections, emphasizing their competitive entry barriers. Physics saw both waitlisting and acceptance, indicating a selective but attainable program. Chemistry had multiple interview opportunities, underlining its competitive environment. Management Science and Engineering experienced numerous rejections despite strong applications, underscoring the program's high standards. Statistics saw both waitlisting and acceptance, suggesting a balanced yet competitive program. Overall, these results suggest that while some programs like Electrical Engineering and Economics offer hope through waitlist acceptances, others like Bioengineering remain exceptionally competitive.

hep-th (quantum gravity / cosmology). To be honest, I am thankful that I have been admitted to HPMS but I am feeling a bit lost as to whether to pursue hep-th or a PhD at all (I am considering jobs unrelated to physics). I have had professors explicitly discouraging me from pursuing quantum gravity and have met jaded PhD graduates of the most famous hep-th professors (when I was interning in the industry). My own experiences in hep-th have been intellectually fulfilling but it is sometimes difficult to tell if my work is related to the real world---the essence of physics seems to be missing. I have started looking at CMT (especially topological materials) but it still seems to have limited applicability in practice. To the applicants out there, how did you know you wanted to pursue a PhD and what are your post-PhD plans? For the hep-th applicants out there, why do you want to do hep-th? |

Master's GPA: 4.2, 3 publications What I was disappointed by more than anything was the complete lack of response from potential supervisors. Even Cambridge gave my application more attention than Stanford. Still grateful for the opportunity to apply, and I wish everyone the best:)) You've got this!!! |

I am a US citizen but did my high schooling and undergrad in India. I had an interview with 1 of my faculty of interest in January. I thought it had gone okay as our interests were very much aligned. Questions were very specific about my prior research and some future ideas. My other faculty of interest met with with me and gave me the news of my acceptance the day before I got the official email. |
