NEU ECE PhD拒信（进waitinglist）（附email）

NEU等了这么久没消息肯定不可能录取，这个早有准备了。昨天晚上还在梦里梦到又有个老师反套我了，结果一睁眼去查邮件查到这封。按照个人经验，一般博士被录取都不会离你提交申请太久。
信里说ECE的PhD今年1000人申请，发了100个offer。信的标题是：Decision Delay Notification。信的部分我贴在下面。

Dear XX，

The purpose of this email is to inform you that it will take a bit longer until you receive your official decision letter from the Graduate School of Engineering. But please do not worry. We have not forgotten about you. Your continued interest and patience is greatly appreciated!

In explanation, this year so far we received well over 1,000 doctoral applications from highly qualified candidates like you. Admissions is competitive at Northeastern with fewer than 1 in 10 applicants gaining acceptance with a funding offer. Next, gaining acceptance and receiving a funding award (e.g. assistantship, fellowship) are related processes. Please trust that you are automatically being considered for funding, and if such an offer is to be made, you will be notified. Next, note that well over 100 funding offers have already been made, and new offers are being made each week in this timeframe. If these offers are declined, then the offers will go to other qualified candidates. This process of finalizing new offers and recycling declined offers can take time. Generally if you do not hear from us about a funding offer by early May timeframe, then you should assume that the chances of receiving such an offer (and official acceptance) is very low.

1000说的是整个工学院的申请人数。。。

不是的，这不是拒了，你还可以写一份motivation letter上传到申请系统中，如果有人拒offer，waitinglist里的人会被重新审核，还有机会。neu是著名的保底校了，所以后面会有人拒他家的offer的。
