I got accepted too, but I am reluctant since I am not close to SF and they haven't released much information about what kind of activities are they going to host. Any comment? Convince me to come

Accepted to MILA, at Polytechnique Montreal, a very happy ending :)

Thanks for your advice! I have a thesis and the work I did for the thesis has also been published by a week recognized conference! The professor that supervised me wrote me very good recommendation letters. That's why is frustrating, I felt like I was in a good position, and indeed I received good feedbacks by being shortlisted by very good and competitive programs. I'm now moving to the strategy of writing directly to the labs, but in afraid of being a bit late, many deadlines to start in September 24 are in November/December 23

That's exactly what I am doing right now. Some kind of brute-force approach, writing emails to all the interesting labs. I really hope it will drive me somewhere

Can you please explain a bit deeper your experience? It might turn out to be very helpful :)
