<p>I am interested in applying to Masters programs in mechanical or materials engineering, though I realize that the deadlines for all the graduate programs I've looked at already passed and I emailed a few of them to see if they'd accept late applications, and they said no. By any chance, does anyone know of any graduate programs that would still accept late applications now? Or what I can do to possibly convince one to accept a late application from me?</p>
<p>I completed my undergrad at a UC school in physics and math with a 3.8 gpa, have taken a few undergrad engineering courses and my grad-level physics courses may be transferable to a materials engineering program. A few years ago, I applied and was accepted to the graduate program in mechanical engineering (at the same school as my undergrad) despite submitting my application late. I emailed them recently if they'd accept a late app, but they said no.</p>
