I've got decisions from all 4 schools I applied to. So far I've got 3 admits and unfortunately 1 reject. In that order; 3 Likes |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by OluDare01(m): 6:56am On Mar 09, 2017 |
UNL rejected you I'm surprised[quote author=fredoricko post=54408522][/quote] |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 7:30am On Mar 09, 2017 |
OluDare01: I'm as shocked as you are. No particular reason was given for the rejection. It was just some generic email talking about how there is a limited number of qualified students they can admit. And from my pre applicatiom correspondence with the grad program specialist, I was confident I'd make a great fit for the program. I guess it was all a hoax to get my application fee. Though I'm sad about it, I'll not pine over it for too long. At least I've got UMass. |

Funding will come. Looks like many schools will make funding decisions later in the month; keep the faith up.. and Congratulations!!![quote author=fredoricko post=54408522][/quote] |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 7:49am On Mar 09, 2017 |
Ndawe: Thanks dear. I wish I were a PhD candidate. Then I'd have prolly been as confident as you are. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ndawe(f): 7:50am On Mar 09, 2017 |
I sent an email yesterday inquiring about the need to make a separate application for an assistantship position in Tennessee Tech, and she was quick to respond as follows: "Thank you for your inquiry about the EVS PhD assistantships. I believe you have been recommended for an assistantship, but no decisions will be made until the EVS PhD Graduate Review Committee meet on March 23rd. We should have their recommendations by March 24th. We are also waiting on possible State Legislature funds to become available". Basically, by month end, there should be an update regarding that. Now I wouldn't know if this is peculiar to the department I'm applying to or it cuts across board. Did you get a response yet? Topiipii: |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Scholastica16: 8:15am On Mar 09, 2017 |
Cephas0009: I am well brother. Nothing much has happened on my end as the other 6 schools are yet to make decisions (I enquired). How have your decisions been? I know you made one Application to LSU. Anyword? |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Scholastica16: 8:16am On Mar 09, 2017 |
Ndawe: He is not applying for a PhD. You are. PhDs as a matter of fact get priority with respect to funding. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Scholastica16: 8:18am On Mar 09, 2017 |
fredoricko: Now is the time to confidently ask for it. If they are going to fund you, they would let you know your chances now rather than later. I also know most schools make their decisions on funding in April. Sorry about Nebraska, Lincoln. Very difficult to know why the decision swung that way, but I am guessing they couldn't secure a professor to take you on. Sometimes, it just boils down to compatibility more than one's fit-for-purpose. You'd be alright. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Nobody: 8:20am On Mar 09, 2017 |
Scholastica16: Thanks. I have and still will. How're yours? I'm sure you'll get a lot of juicy offers. I hope well all do. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ndawe(f): 8:23am On Mar 09, 2017 |
Oh okay, I wasn't aware that he applied for an MSc; indeed PhDs get priority for funding. No wahala, thank you and fingers crossed Scholastica16: |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Scholastica16: 8:24am On Mar 09, 2017 |
fredoricko: Some of my schools said decisions will be made mid-march. I am just observing with a pin-hole camera. 1 Like |

fredoricko:Maybe there was no potential supervisor. At times, a good profile won't get you admission. A friend with a first class and 320+ in GRE 103 in Toefl got rejected by my school cos there was no supervisor in his area of interest. |

Ndawe:MS Electrical Engineering Ndawe:I have to apply based on the reply I got, the person that replied me even said it might be up to July before decisions are announced as usually get their funds late. It might be peculiar to my department though since the person I mailed works in the ECE department. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ndawe(f): 1:30pm On Mar 09, 2017 |

Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ndawe(f): 8:07am On Mar 10, 2017 |
Good morning house, a quick update. I've received 3 decisions out of 4 applications: Tennessee Tech: Admitted; admission letter was sent early this morning and funding decision will be known in the last week of March. Michigan Tech: Denied . The email just dropped. Reason for denial: "There currently is no advisor available in your specified area of interest" Clarkson Uni: Admitted (This is a private school though): Some funding was provided actually but not enough, so I may have to decline. Still waiting on Mississippi State Uni. *modified* 2 Likes |

Good morning house, a quick update.
Just ONE! Still hoping on LSU and Auburn for the offer too good to be rejected. |
Re: How To Achieve High Scores On The GRE by Ndawe(f): 8:52am On Mar 10, 2017 |
Exactly, one juicy offer cuts it. Thank you so much and I pray same for you too . It will all be worth it in the end fredoricko: |
