全奖申请!UA电面+AD to Offer全过程+经验总结_41213.docVIP

Dear Profs. *** May I know your office time please? I’d like to talk to you to know more about your researches and programs as well as my chance of being admitted through phone. Many Thanks!他回信说：??To the best of my knowledge, your file is in the hands of the Graduate Program Committee (GPC), which adjudicates all applications. I do not know whether they will admit you or not, but this decision should be made fairly soon. ? ?? ???I did look at your file some time ago and recall that you were indeed a very strong candidate worthy of admission. However, I could not readily agree to supervise you at the time because I already had agreed to supervise two other new applicants.??? ?? ???Please let me know whether you need financial assistance or not. If you do, then your chances of admission are slim. This is because GPC has allocated most of the funds to other applicants.??? ?? ???If GPC agrees to admit you, they likely would do this without financial support. Further, if GPC admits you, I would be willing to meet with you later this week. If GPC turns you down, there is little point in meeting. Please check again within 2-3 days.郁闷了一晚，回信说可以接受无奖学金的事实，于是收到他的来信说 have just had a conversation with the chair of GPC, Dr. Jackson.
