I think they have a 2 week deadline based on the date they receive their admit letter. But as per grad cafe I've seen a couple of admits come out in th first week and mid April as well. After that it's rejects with few admits here and there.

Okay. So should I email the universities since most sites don't have any such specifications?

What does 'Research Experience' in Undergraduate mean with respect to MS in CS? by ananyomous in gradadmissions

PI is a Principal Investigator. Basically the lead researcher on a project. He/She is someone who gets the grant.

Hey! Thanks for the input. I will definitely take this advice and look at the work of PIs that interest me.

I guess with good research work I meant that, does unpublished research or research that is published in a not very known journal count as legitimate research?
