UMN PhD Offer (CE and MSE) +拒掉邀请的visit没问题吧？

1.29日上午8点（北京时间）收到，原文如下：

“I am very pleased to inform you that you have been admitted  to our PhD program in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota for Fall 2016.  

Attached is a copy of the offer letter from our Department.   You will receive a separate email and letter of admission from the Graduate School as soon as the admission has been processed on their end.     

We look forward to hearing from you and hope you can visit during one of our visit weekends.  Information on scheduling a visit is also attached and will be included with the hard copy of the letter that will be mailed to you.  

If you have any questions about the program or department,  please do not hesitate to contact us.”

offer letter 里面是“ a stipend of $30000, health insurance and full tuition benefits”

邀请去UMN进行visit，给$600，参加unofficial get together。2月和3月各有一场很多人集体的，也可以单独自己选时间去。可lz不想去，拒掉visit应该没问题吧？

UMN的Chemical Engineering 和 Materials Science and Engineering 貌似是合在一起的，求问在美国这个大专业实际名声到底怎么样？

我也申请了他家MSE，上周问的时候说2月中旬做决定，小米说Thank you for applying to our MSE program fo ...

嗯呢，我今天早上email小秘的。
Thank you for applying to our graduate program in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota.   I am writing to let you know that your application has been placed on a wait list.    We understand that the deadline for accepting offers is April 15, and we will make every effort to notify you before early April.

Please note that this is not a reflection of your abilities.  It is simply a consequence of the very high quality pool of applicants that we had, and the limited number of offers we could make.  It is rather standard practice to keep a small number of qualified applicants on hold, with the possibility of making late offers of admission if space becomes available.

今天email小秘，说被扔在了waitling list上，麻烦问一下楼主去UMN的意向大吗，thx

我也申请了他家MSE，上周问的时候说2月中旬做决定，小米说Thank you for applying to our MSE program for the PhD.  Your application is currently in review.  Decisions for most applications are made by mid-February and then some are put on a wait list until early April. As soon as the review is complete we will notify you.

至今没有消息，还是Awaiting for Program Decision...你也是这个状态么？你发邮件问小米，是他说在waitinglist？求交流。。。

我拿到了CS 的PhD offer，同样不想去campus visit~~~~~~~~~

恭喜lz！！
我室友也拿到了这个

恭喜楼主, 请问楼主这个学校套Prof了吗？

我没有套磁，直接得到的邮件通知。邮件里说之后Graduate School会最后发正式吧，发给我的貌似是个扫描版PDF，有点提前发给我的意思。

恭喜楼主，我也在申这个学校，status还是awaiting program decision，焦虑当中啊

恭喜楼主~~~~~~~~~~~~~
