NYU Tandon MFE Q&A with NYU Tandon MS FE

[jaforquant]

Hi, has the admitted decisions from WL already announced? If it has not, about when we should expect the results?
@NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team

 

[TINCH]

We have already admitted 25-30 applicants from the waitlist, and expect to accept a few more. We are not permitted to say what percentage this amounts to, but it is significant.

Application still shows the check list. Should I consider that there are no more vacancies and the remaining vacancies will go to Waitlisted applicants only? Request for input as there is an existing offer. Thanks

you should reach out to engineering.gradinfo@nyu.edu about your status

 

[jisunghzh]

hello, I would like to know that when will the students on the waitlist receive the final decision? Is there still vacancies? If there has, about what proportion or still need how many students?

 

[jisunghzh]

and will the students on the waitlist receive a decline and about when?

 

[Dhyey Sanghavi]

Hey @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team,

Just a quick follow-up on the decision timeline. Are the notifications expected this week for acceptance only, or will rejections be included as well? It would really help us if we could get a date on when can we receive the final decision update on the application and plan ahead, especially for those needing to secure visa slots which are opening up nowadays and finalise other university options.

Thanks for your assistance!

Hi -- we will be admitting more applicants from the waitlist next week. It is possible that this is the final round, or not, depending on how many of these people decide to join us.

Hi -- we plan on doing admissions until the cohort is complete, and then notifying the others that they were not admitted.

 

[Dhyey Sanghavi]

So until when do you think you can do so
What is the deadline given to admitted students for confirmation and after that deadline how much time more until others get a chance at admits?
Its critical for people in the waitlist to know an approximate date because we are way into May now

We understand your concerns. The deadlines for making commitments are set by NYU Tandon and not by our program, and so we professors are not "in the loop" on these matters. Perhaps someone who is admitted next week can reply to this thread and let us know how long they have been given to make a commitment.

I was under the impression that more admits would have been given out last week. So wanted to ask if they were already given last week or has it been delayed to next week

 

[NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team]

Both. Students were admitted from the waitlist last week. Some more acceptances of waitlisted students are being processed now.

Hi @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team,

On March 13th, I was informed that I was placed on waitlist. I wanted to reiterate my sincere interest in your program and that NYU Tandon has always been my first choice for graduate studies.

I would like to kindly ask if it is possible to receive the final decision by the end of May. I understand that your program is unprecedentedly popular and the admissions procedure can take time, and I am grateful for the consideration given to my application so far. If I am honored to be admitted, I will definitely accept your offer and I am very willing to pay the deposit fee.

Thank you very much for reading my request.

Dear faculty,

As you mentioned there will be more acceptances next week, will there be any results release this Friday? Thank you in advance for your response. @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team

Hi @Wenda Zhai -- we want to complete this process as much as you do. We understand your message and will do our best to let you and the others on the waitlist know the final decisions as quickly as we can.

Hi @jaforquant -- We have sent this week's decisions to the Tandon administration. We hope that they can process these very quickly, but we cannot promise something that we cannot control.

 

[jisunghzh]

so more acceptance will be announced today? can the process be updated here so we can be more clear about it? really thanks

 

[NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team]

We have given you the updates that we can. When an academic unit here makes a decision about an application it goes to our Administration. These decisions are privileged information subject to the US law called FERPA. That limits the visibility of the communication from the Administration to the applicant to only the applicant. We professors are not aware of the timing of the communications to applicants, because under FERPA we do not have that privilege.

 

[Wenda Zhai]

I got admit five hours earlier! Thank you!

 

[Raphael N. Swing]

Hi @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team
I wanted to ask if not having received any updates about being admitted from the waitlist by now means that I will almost certainly be rejected.
Thank you.
