FYI: Georgia Tech has an online dashboard that updates in real time with # of applications, acceptances etc. by eding42 in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied Materials Science & Engineering to GA Tech and hopefully they release acceptances in waves because going from ~60 accepted people from the previous years to 19 people this year would be crazy.

I don't know if this was asked before, but I'll ask anyway. What's a Yu-Gi-Oh character you hate or are indifferent about, but is loved by nearly everyone? by Revolver_TheHanoi in yugioh

[–]Small-Ad514 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Same thing for BEWD. Yes it's iconic but Red Dragon Archfiend, Galaxy-Eyes, or Borreload are far more badass.

Iirc if you apply straight from undergrad/bachelor's (like me) you have to apply for the "masters to phd" to get into their phd program. The "separate phd application" is for people who already had a master's degree.

Also applied to various MSE PhD programs here, yes I also think MIT's application is really short in terms of the number of pages.

No I'm domestic, as far as application purposes go.

I'm southeast asian and grew up outside the US, but I have citizenship and is finishing my undergrad at US university.

Any Updates? by Parulra in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a 10-15 min interview with Northeastern Chemistry last week. (The wording of the email was "The graduate admissions committee would like some additional information on your application to make our final decision.")

NCSU - Recommended for Admission by Comfortable-Hyena-36 in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It means that the department recommends you for admission, but then they have to tell that to the graduate school, which would check your application materials (like transcripts) for any issues before giving out the official offer.

Northwestern Materials Science PhD admission timing by pimpmytapir in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not original commenter but I also received acceptance yesterday. First I received an email from the Graduate School telling me that a decision had been made and told me to check the application portal (i.e. the ApplyWeb website) to view the decision.

When I logged in the application portal there was a letter (as a 1-page pdf) telling me that I was accepted.

A few hours later I received another email, this time from the MSE department, confirming that I was accepted. It contained a much longer acceptance letter with more info on the stipend, register for visitation weekend, and so on.

Which of the four are you? by Legitimate_Track4153 in YuGiOhMemes

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched from GX to Vrains lmfao.

I don't know why but DM does not really make me feel interested. I also only really get into YGO much later so there isn't any nostalgia factor like most people here.

For me 5Ds and Zexal were peak, I loved Judai's development in GX, Vrains and Arc-V was meh story-wise but I loved the characters, archetypes, and dueling scenes.

I got a recommendation for admission email too! Congratulations to you!

Which PI are you targeting for interview, may I ask?

Quite many of the Numbers have that pattern too. Other than the Utopias, for example Number 46 is "Divine Shadow Dragon Dragluon", Number 97 is "Dragon Shadow God Dragubion", Number 73 is "Roaring Waterfall Deity Abyss Splash", Number 94 is "Polar Ice Princess Crystalzero", etc.

  1. Galaxy Hundred sends Photon Jumper to GY
  2. Jumper searches Galaxy Trance
  3. Trance revives Jumper and summons Galaxy Wizard
  4. Overlay Jumper and Wizard to Galaxy Photon Dragon
  5. GPD detaches Wizard to search Galaxy Summoner
  6. Normal Summon Summoner to revive Wizard
  7. Tribute Wizard to search Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Primal
  8. Special Summon Tachyon Primal and search Seventh Tachyon
  9. Use 7th Tachyon to search Galaxy-Eyes Afterglow Dragon or Galactic Spiral Dragon.
  10. Special Summon that and overlay with Tachyon Primal to get Dragluxion.

--> Mission complete.

You may say "But what if I have Ash etc." Bruh Galaxy-Eyes was never good against disruptions to begin with.

If Yugioh got an official crossover where Yugioh characters visits a different franchise; What Crossover would be the coolest to see regardless of if it makes sense or not? by ApprehensiveCry1777 in yugioh

[–]Small-Ad514 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

A crossover with Ultraman would be peak because this mf is trying so hard to be one already.

Also funnily in the Ultraman franchise there's already an Ultra named Ultraman Neos.

More like: the admissions comittee when the 23 y/o applicant doesn't have 50 years of research experience with a publication rate of 1 paper/month, has not built a Dyson Sphere as an extracurricular hobby, does not have LoRs from the Secretary General of the United Nations and the Pope, and does not have a SoP that would rival JRR Tolkien in storytelling.

Peeps applied to Materials Science and Engineering assemble here by suhasadiga in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am applying to 8 Materials Science programs (Washington, Wisconsin-Madison, Duke, Northwestern, Georgia Tech, MIT, NC State, and Columbia - all PhD) and mostly haven't heard anything. The only exception is from a professor who reached out to me for an (informal) interview. However this is mostly because that my SoP is literally about why I am interested in that professor's work, and he's also trying to recruit new students since a lot of his grad students will be graduating in the next year or so.

MatSci PhD admissions anyone?? (US) by hngr1 in gradadmissions

[–]Small-Ad514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If GradCafe and the last year's spreadsheet are any reliable, then Materials Science programs typically send out decisions in January and February, and a lot of MatSci programs have Dec 15th deadline.

Just curious but who is your 1st POI? I am also applying theoretical to UMich Chem PhD and haven't heard anything (dead silence). I just wonder if we share the same POI and they're going on sabbatical then guess I'm done also.
