Graduate School Admission Results

Not surprised to be rejected. After all it's MIT. Good luck to everyone still waiting for results!

Oh well, it was a long shot. 1a/1w/6r//10 pending

Did this friend of yours interview? It seems a bit odd they would neglect to send some decisions out. Is that typical?

Soooooo sad.

Interviewed. Excited !

Official email, computer architecture, had talked with POIs last week

We are honored by your interest in the MIT AeroAstro graduate program. Admission to our program is highly competitive with roughly 12% of applicants being admitted and many very strong applicants being turned down. Your application for admission to our department's graduate program has been placed on an unranked wait list with approximately 40 others. Being placed on the wait list indicates that faculty are interested in working with you on your graduate studies, however, based on our estimated acceptance rate of admission offers, we do not believe we will have an opening for you at this time. Given the uncertainty on the exact number of admitted students that will accept our offer of admission, we do place a small number of applicants on the wait list. I am sorry that we cannot predict the final outcome of your application for admission at the present time. As the situation evolves, we may admit students from the wait list, and that could happen any time from now until the end of May. We will notify all wait-listed applicants of a final decision no later than May 31, 2019.

Not surprised. It seems like they are only accepting applications with a very high GPA.

At least it’s not raining.

Finally got the rejection email

Beyond excited for this!

Received email from department to let me know that I made it to the interview stage. Campus visit or Skype interview. Feb 15-16 or 22-23.

Applied for AMO, Quantum Information, Theory or Exp., 2.5 years + 2 summers research, strong LOR, no publications (1 second-author in preparation)

nucl-th

7 Years of research experience, 5 Publications (1 first author)+2 under review, multiple conference presentations and research awards. I hope this goes to show that virtually no profile can guarantee admission among such a talented pool of candidates.
