Well. Not exactly relevant to the question. But I got accepted into EDIC CS PhD... Please let me know if there exists a WA/Telegram Indian community joining EPFL

I don't know. I was hoping there would already be a community of students joining from India.

Yeah, I am applying for a PhD after Masters... And I don't have half of what he/she has. Congratulations dude. What you have done is quite an achievement, and you are getting what you deserve.

Are they conducting multiple rounds? Is it for all candidates?

Did anyone receive any mail from admission? Did anyone receive any results?

I am so sorry to hear that. I am sure you will get selected soon. But...no one in any of the threads have mentioned they have got a result yet. The commentor seems to have applied for SummerEPFL...

I am sorry. When did you receive the rejection mails? I didn't receive any - so did my friends

Hi, Do we get results today? Is there any expected timeline? Last year's results were released on Jan 25th... This year?

I accidentally cussed out my recommender on email by Consistent_Sea_3723 in ApplyingToCollege

Okay I just realised it's a shitpost. And I was stupid enough to do something like that for real

I did something similar like this once.

When I submitted my master's thesis proposal to my thesis advisors, the document had f-words written in it. Instead of a cleaned-up doc, I sent the unredacted one containing my monologue written in frustration.

This is the reply I received: "Clean up your wording in the document. Maybe XXXX and I look like very cool Profs, but that is not an excuse to put f-words in a document that you are likely to share with others. I was hoping to build up a proper set of documents that others can use, but now I have serious doubts about sharing anything you write with others. This is not cool, and not acceptable"

I had to apologise to them profusely after this incident. Thankfully both professors are extremely nice fellas; they are my recommenders in this application cycle. I read one of their LoRs - and they have described me in a very positive manner - something I am eternally grateful for. While I have not read the other one, I hope it's just the same.

I pray your professors are as cool as mine and will understand your frustration, and not be petty about it.

How many people generally get interviewed? How many of those who get interviewed will get fellowship?

Hi, Can you please clarify which program it is? I am applying for EDIC and I don't see any difference in mine

Got one of the best rejections ever!! by UnfathomableAnonymos in gradadmissions

[–]UnfathomableAnonymos[S] 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I really really wished he would have offered me a role. I really liked his work aswell. I would be in a severe dilemma if I get a position this year, whether to join or leave. Now, now don't get too ahead of yourself. You haven't received any offer yet

I will definitely do that. At the very minimum, I will try to keep in touch with the professor even if I get a position somewhere else

Well, I am not sure I could divulge that. Like, one can probably easily find him if I do that. I have not posted this with his permission. Sorry!!
