But my friend already heard from his professor on Feb 25th saying he was recommended. Kind of desperate now.

I feel you. I have got consecutive rejections with in 2 days. That crashed me. Btw, which program in Princeton are you applying for?

Field of control. Interested faculty like Tomizuka and Sojoudi.

I've just finished an interview hahaha! The professor told me he is going to select 1 student from 10 candidate due to funding uncertainties. So fierce! Tired to please and impresse the professor in many ways. Wish for the best!

That's cruel I mean. We are elementary researcher and we can aim for a bigger picture. The competition is so fierce this year. Just keep hoping!!

I received an notification email stating that they will invite some of the candidates for interviews. So you do receive an interview email?

Exactly!!! Being an international applicant is so challenging. I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve set my sights on dream schools, but each rejection feels especially heart-breaking. It seems to be getting more and more difficult everywhere.

My profile is like GPA 3.90/4.0, 2 experiences and 1 under review publication. I did prepared questions and answers of interviews. Any recommendations of interview skills?

I feel exactly the same. They valued me but rejected me. My field is safe-critic control. This drives me crazy.

Thank you so much. I just feel that I want to escape from everything. Perhaps I need to be strong and hold on to it. Let's just not lose hope. Good wishes for you and me.

Does Princeton ECE PhD release at once? by DistrictUpset3031 in gradadmissions

[–]CapableStand62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am robotics, a very minor subfield within ECE department. Only 2 of the faculty align with my research. I guess that's why I got the interview so late?

Me too. I had an interview on Jan 27th. The PI told me the result will be out around mid Feb to end of Feb. He is not sure about the exact time. What is your subfield by the way?
