Graduate School Admission Results

MS track High Performance Building

DDes program.

Applied to the PhD program, got accepted into the Masters.

Upenn is the only school out of the many that I applied, who asks for an official transcript prior to the admission. I attended college abroad, so I paid $300 + for the WES service for the undergrad transcript verification, not to mention all other hassles. Just a heads up for everyone that, if you want to apply to UPenn, make sure this is what you want / there's a great chance you'll get in. Otherwise it's just a waste of time and money if we're not accepted. Overall it was not a very positive experience communicating with UPenn's administration.

Applied to both M. Arch. and MLA. Only received one generic rejection letter, not sure if it's for one or both programs. I'm going to wait until tomorrow to see if there are any updates, then call in to clarify. No E-mail, just checked website.

MArch 2 year program

Iranian Applicant \ TOEFL 108 \ Previous Education: B.Sc. in Architectural Engineering \ Don't take TU Delft too seriously, They don't require a recommendation letter. The only component they look for is your portfolio which should have exactly the same order they mentioned on the website, be sure to follow that and you will be admitted. In their rejection letter they told me that my portfolio is not coherent and lacks proper use of text and images and lots of other bullshits, I accepted with the same portfolio to GSD and RISD, therefore the only possible reason is that I didn't follow their preferred type of portfolio.

Iranian Applicant \ TOEFL 108 \ 15K Grant \ M.Arch I \ Previous Education: B.Sc. in Architectural Engineering \ Strong LOR + Strong CV \ They probably waitlisted due to the fact that they are not sure about my attendance, My SOP might be another fact, I actually wrote a totally different SOP for this school.
