MLD, I regret to inform you that we are unable to admit you to the Ph.D. in Machine Learning program at Carnegie Mellon University. We received over 620 applications this year. Unfortunately, we could admit only a fraction of the applicants, even though many more had strong qualifications. You will be notified separately by each program to which you have applied.
