OSU review

I applied for the following universities: UIUC – rejected. The competition pile was better than my application. probably. TAMU – Admitted but liked OSU better. UCSD – waitlisted. took too long to reply. UT Austin – rejected OSU – accepted and took admission In general, I think I did not have a great SOP. I did not have enough projects to convince the bigger schools to admit me. I also think Covid has a little adverse effect on admissions, with more people deciding to pursue masters right after covid. OSU has a great centre for automotive research. My area of interest was in controls engineering, specifically applied in automotive engineering. OSU had excellent faculties for me to dive into my interests . I scored 314 in the GRA and 8.0 in the IELTS. I am not sure what the minimum required score for the GRE was but the IELTS minimum was 6.0. The overall college admission experience was nice. The admission process took 5 months. I applied in october 2021 and got a reply in April 2022. You can also apply for an early bird in august which helps you undercut a lot of your competitors. My application wasn't ready by then so I couldn't apply. Once you get the admit letter in April, you have about 3 weeks to accept/reject the offer letter. You may be able to request an extension but that depends on the DSO. You can also decide to defer your admit letter by up to 2 years if you want to join the following academic year.
