Computer Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology TTPB: Do not worry about MIT rejecting you. I have two papers at top venues, one of which is a first author. But the biggest problem was I come from a place where my recommenders weren't well known. To the best of my knowledge, schools in top 10, including places like UT Austin are taking students if your recommenders are known to the admissions committee. I am bummed because all my recommenders gave me strong letters and still I got rejected. If this should be the case, I would rather suggest that you all don't worry. You will surely get in somewhere where only Academic Merit is valued and not networking. Sadly, we live in a world where it is very difficult for individuals to get admitted all by themselves if they can't find good connections with Professors elsewhere. What bums me even more is the simple fact that if even one of your Letter writer sends an email to a prof at a top uni anywhere (personally if they know each other), all the other tangibles are overlooked and you atleast get looked at very deeply in the application and guess what, have an excellent chance of making it even if your application is okay. never lose hope. sometimes life isn't just about making it to these places. its bigger :)

Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology I guess they're done with admitting students? Welp. One should atleast send out a rejection or a courtesy email to students informing them of whether they are still evaluating applications or not, considering its been more than 2.5 months now. Sad.

HASTS, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Generic email from Director of Graduate Studies and Academic Administrator (STS): "We are sorry to inform you that we will not be able to offer you admission to the doctoral program in History, Anthropology, and Science, Technology and Society (HASTS) at MIT. This year we received 147 applications and we only could only grant interviews to 12% of the applicants for an even smaller number of slots. Please note that the committee is unable to provide feedback on individual applications. Your application was given careful consideration and although we are not able to offer you admission, the committee would like to thank you for your interest in the program and wish you the very best in your future endeavors.
