Computer Science Graduate School Admission Results

Theory.

4 Conference pubs (3 accepted, 1 in-review), 1 workshop pub in top CS conference, 4 very strong LORs (My POI knows one of them + knows one of my co-authors for a paper). I think my main strength was the strong research fit with my POI. Had a few interviews (which is not normal for MIT EECS, but my POI wanted it). My undergraduate is MechE, not CS. Like others here, I received the acceptance email at 4:30pm EST.

Area: Speech/NLP. Undergrad from outside of USA, strong LoR, four 1st-author publications (3 conference / 1 under review), no internships. An informal chat with POI about two weeks ago. TOEFL scores never appeared on the app portal.

IELTS 8.0, 2 years of work experience, 2 publications. If Kentucky rejected, what is the point to wait for other decisions. It is the first decision, the first rejection, the uni that surprised me.

Not waitlist. Is there any international student with the highest degree out of America got an offer?

Expected.

Applied to Tandon MSCS program

IELTS: 9, 4 research papers (Scopus indexed), ECE undergrad.
