Fall 2008 - EECS Graduate Admissions

Graduate School
21

<p>It looks like the berkeley responses are coming. This website shows that that a bunch of rejection showed up on 2/14 through email, how thoughtful. </p>

<p>[Computer</a> Science PhD Responses](<a href=“http://www.yuster.com/school/get_major_responses/1]Computer”>http://www.yuster.com/school/get_major_responses/1)
[Berkeley</a>, Computer Science Phd Responses](<a href=“http://www.yuster.com/school/get_program_responses/4981]Berkeley”>http://www.yuster.com/school/get_program_responses/4981)</p>

22

<p>Yes, Princeton also sent out their responses, at least they started to send out rejections :(</p>

23

<p>Anyone will share his or her information? Seems that many EECS departments have responses now.</p>

24

<p>A bunch of fellowship decisions are out already from Berkeley/UCSD/USC/WASHINGTON. Anybody received RA/TA/Rejects from these schools for EE?</p>

25

<p>Have MIT and Stanford sent out all the acceptances they are going to or have they only sent out acceptances to people getting funding?</p>

<p>On GradCafe it seems they sent out a bunch of acceptances early last week but nothing since and the few people that have called have said they had been rejected…</p>

<p>I wouldn’t worry, USC does rolling admissions, people are still getting in.</p>

31

<p>How do you know awildwolf?</p>

32

<p>My brother, who went to the previously-referred-to Rice recruitment weekend last weekend, just heard from UCLA grad EECS-- accepted. Still waiting to hear from MIT, Stanford, UW.</p>

33

<p>rogracer: Wow your son is like my twin… same school, same minor and we’re within about 5% on every “stat” except I am more of a devices guy. I probably know him!</p>

<p>To floopydrive: You asked about ga tech in another thread and I would like to second your question because I have heard absolutely NADA from their camp for MS/PhD EE, which is sad because I really had my heart set on going there and I have been informally guaranteed funding at the alma mater.</p>

34

<p>Wow, MIT has been rejecting some incredible candidates (as per GradCafe), I don’t feel so bad anymore…</p>

<p>Stats: 3.5 GPA; 700Q/500V. </p>

<p>To ghettonomics: Are you applying to masters or PhD programs? Plus, have you done any research? I’m curious to see; my GPA will be somewhat similar by the time I apply to grad school.</p>

36

<p>PhD at the lower ranked schools and Masters at the higher ranked. </p>

<p>No research experience, but about 4 years of industry experience (worked though my undergrad) and solid Statement of Purpose and Letters of Recommendations.</p>

37

<p>To ghettonomics: myself and some friends got the rejections for Yale and UPenn. Also there’re notifications on gradcafe.</p>

38

<p>just got rejected from berkeley… but got an invite to visit Texas.</p>

39

<p>awildwolf, is this for CS or EE?</p>

40

<p>awildwolf: Ah, okay. I was just searching for (Electrical||EECS) not (Computer||CS) that’s why I didn’t see the Yale results.</p>
