Graduate School Admission Results

Completing a MSc at another Canadian university; Canadian citizen

Thank you for your application to the graduate program in Media Arts and Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for Fall 2024. We regret that we are not able to offer you admission. We received more than 1,000 applications and were able to admit less than 3%. In selecting so few from a large and talented group, we must turn down many qualified applicants. We wish you the best for your future plans. Program in Media Arts and Sciences

I regret to inform you that we are unable to admit you to the Ph.D. Program in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. Due to the large number of applications we receive we are unable to provide individualized feedback on your application. The Computer Science Department received over 1700 applications this year, and our program can support only a small number of new students. Unfortunately, this means that there were many highly qualified applicants we could not admit to our program. If you have applied to more than one program within the School of Computer Science, you will hear from each program individually. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.

Did not really receive an email, but when I asked few days ago I was told: The Office of Graduate Admissions brought it to our attention that you did not receive a response from our program on the status of your application. An email was sent to you on February 14, 2024 from our applygrad portal. Our apologies that it did not make it to you. Please see the below message from Director Geoff Kaufman: Dear applicant: I'm sorry to inform you that you have not been admitted to the Ph.D. Program in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon. Although it sounds like a cliché, the truth is that we were faced with very difficult decisions this year because we simply had many more highly qualified candidates than we were able to admit. We sincerely appreciate your interest in our program and the time and effort you put into submitting your application. We hope that you are able to pursue your HCI research interests in another way, and we look forward to seeing your future contributions to the field, even if you were not able to make them starting from our program. Please note: You will be notified separately by each School of Computer Science program to which you have applied. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.

Got an email to check the portal.

recommended for admission to MA in European Thought and Culture. received email, formal portal update to come

No GRE was submitted. The director was contacted at first and then the official decision arrived a few hours later. No changes in the application portal. For the prospective students: What I noticed was, that most international students may be getting offers in the first 2-3 weeks of April. So keep grinding and have a little faith. Good luck y'all...

4.0 Grad GPA. It's literally already April, so the rejection wasn't a surprise, but it's such a waste of my time to wait for a school THIS LONG to reject me. Its fine, I got into higher ranked programs anyway. 7 a 5 r

By now, nearly all ideal places gave rejection. Perhaps I am likely cursed by Destiny.

Ignore status. Graduate coordinator JASON TERRY always copy-pastes "sent out some decisions but reviewing more applications" when I ask if I am on waitlist. Never understand why he does like this. Guess I am on the waitlist. Please decline if you are not going. Late decline makes schools unable to send offers to the waitlists, who are willing to go there.

If someone is not attending, I request you to please decline your offer. This is my top choice program.

GRE not accepted by school. 4 years industry software engineering experience, 1.5 years ML engineering experience. No publications or university research.
