University of New Mexico. Saw 2 attachments and thought one was my acceptance and the other my "funding" letter so I hurriedly opened it. You can imagine my shock when I saw "I regret" somewhere. I could have reported it but I came online and saw you celebrating PennState, so I went back to silently moan.

I guess it is -2/8 now for me. embarassed
It's well bro....
The very best package for u is around d corner. You will smile soonest.

Thanks man. You know, I considered almost everything you have said. But the Grad coordinator told me Master's is self-funded and that I should apply directly for the PhD. I asked her if I needed to email any Professor to act as an adviser and she said no but that I should mention his name in my SOP and that it would be relayed to him.

In the course of my research I noticed CuteMorgan got into their Chemistry doctorate program directly and I didn't hear him talk about emailing any Professors so I felt I was in order. His admit and funding emails trooped in back to back as well so I believed they didn't sell me a false word. He did graduate with a 4.55/5 and I didn't however.

I guess they would give a couple Chincos with 169-Q 145-V 2.5-AWA the admit. Nothing spoil. Finally na just 1 admit pesin need sef. Getting all admits is just for self-aggrandizement. grin

See the highlighted part? I dread it more than Jamaican hair especially as the dollar is expected to rise to 650N before the year runs out.

@bolded, that's right! However, your GRE scores are higher than his, so it should suffice, even if your CGPA isn't up to 4.55/5.00..... I am still wondering why they rejected your application... undecided

Well like you said, one can't really be sure of what they look for.

Rejection from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute...

I knew their acceptance rate is so small........Application fee waiver was the only reason I gave it a trial. Life goes on........we await more acceptance and funding.... cool

Regret mail from LSU. They say they hope the regret will not discourage me from pursuing graduate program in other schools. Congrats to those who got it.
Very strange!!! Bro, LSU just lost one great candidate......I'm sure they just released you for better offers from the other schools. It's well boss! PhD Chemical Engineering right?

My profile on their site still indicates that they haven't received my transcript, and admission decision says "missing document", which is probably my unreceipted transcript. Discouraged on seeing your admission decision.... sad sad

This is great news bro. Some schools make funding decisions later so I am guessing you'd still hear from them. Mechanical engineering Masters abi?
Thanks boss! I believe so....Yea, MSc Mechanical Engineering.

K-State is asking me to send a bank statement though before an admittance can be processed.

I still have two more decisions to go (U of Utah and Vanderbilt)

Congrats, Hope others come through too, because I am just thinking cold, cold, cold, just joking
No be small....I thought of that, and it almost deterred me from applying to the school. Anyways, if better funding come out, we go survive the cold grin grin

I researched and discovered that South Dakota isn't really the coldest, as opposed to my initial thought.....

I am chasing the grad schools for more money, I smile each time a mail enters my box.. It always turns out to be linkedin or some career website.

One admit from South Dakota State University.

Surprisingly, that is the most recent application which I reluctantly submitted few days ago. I completed the application and ordered for my evaluated transcript from WES to the school on 8th of this month. I was utterly surprised when I saw the mail from them was a decision mail. I guess they admit on rolling basis...

However, no funding yet. The advisor assigned to me happen to be the Program Coordinator. I was told to contact my advisor for inquiries on funding which I already did.... his response was that I have been automatically entered to the selection pool for the departmental graduate teaching assistant, and that the positions will be announced at the beginning of the fall semester... undecided lipsrsealed

I pray it comes out well...

Good day to everyone I want to ask is it okay for me to send photocopy of my degree certificate to Wes by Email has anyone on here does that before.
No, you would have to scan a clear copy of d original and send to them via fax. Get their fax digit from their site and use this free fax service to send your certificate to them. With this, they'd receive ur certificate very fast at no cost. Below is the link to d free fax services: https://www.myfax.com/free/
Remember to include your reference number in your fax messages.
This worked for me...
Cheers!

I swear I didn't know Access had the same provisions GTB did. In my mind I felt I had exhausted the $100 limit and other banks work at 450N/ $ or thereabouts. So I actually thought N8000 for TOEFL by B.Y MAFIT was a bargain. I am regretting now. N64000 just like that! cry
So sorry about that boss....I can imagine d feeling, in this Buhari time sad
It's well....it will all end in praise! cool

This 6500 is it not $27. And $27 @325 should be over 8k

Additional Score report for TOEFL is $20, while it's $27 for GRE.
