Surprised about this since I had my REU there last summer and a great letter of rec from my advisor. When I talked to the chair over the summer, he said that they were going to be really tight on admissions this year because they had way too many attendees last year, so that makes it harder. Don't be upset if you got rejected, they decreased the number of acceptances this year by about 20-30.

Had applied to the Quantum group and heard from them that I was not in their first round of offers and I shall have to wait and watch what turns out. It is therefore my request to fellow applicants to the Quantum group, if you have already been sent an offer and you are certain that you wouldn't like to attend LSU anyway, please turn down your offer so that poor souls like me can possibly have some chance :P Cheers!
