Got admit from UC Irvine

Hi,
I am based in Bangalore working in a telecommunications company for the past 1.5 years. My GRE score is 2110 and TOEFL is 280. Undergraduate score from VTU, Karanataka is 76%.My research interests are wireless networks and distributed systems.

I have applied to the following universities:
1)UC Irvine ( MS Networked Systems)
2)Univ of Utah (Phd)
3)Michigan State Univ (Phd)
4)Vanderbilt Univ (Phd)
5)SUNY Buffalo (MS)
6)WSU (MS)

Currently I have got an admit from UC Irvine for their MS program but without ANY aid.(that is $37712 per year). Though UC Irvine is great for my research interests and the best among the lot, since the cost is way out of reach I am waiting for the other results.

Please do comment on my results and prospects.

regards,
Muzammil

I am very mad at people that characterize as stupid/smart other persons/themselves based solely on a stupid and meaningless GRE score. Smartness/Stupidness cannot be judged until you get to know each person in depth, and certainly it cannot be measured by test scores. Other factors, such as organization, perseverence, modesty, responsiveness, honesty, effort, kindness, sincereness, and overall spirit are by far more important in evaluating one's intelligence!

I applied in the first week of January 2005.
Got the result on March 1 via email stating that I have been recommended for admission without AID and that I have to furnish financial documents for an amount of $37712 to be given actual admission.(I do not know whether they are implying that I will not get any aid at all eveen afetr landing there or that it is just no initial AID)

My status page shows the contents of the email.

Dear Syed Muzammil Hussain,

Please read this notice carefully from start to finish. A response
from you is required in order that we may continue processing your
application.

The members of the Networked Systems admissions committee would like
to recommend that you be admitted for graduate degree study at the
University of California, Irvine beginning in the Fall 2005 academic
term.

This is a recommendation only, for admission without financial
support. This is not a formal admission offer. Limited resources
are available for financial support, including research or teaching
assistantships and fellowships. Unfortunately, all such funds are
already committed and we cannot provide you any financial support.

Before we can confirm the review committee recommendation, we must
know that you are willing to accept admission without financial
support. Accepting this recommendation will mean that you have
sufficient funds available for your first year of study, and that you
will have continuous access to these funds while enrolled at UC
Irvine. Our recommendation must then be approved at School-level on
campus.

The cost of living is high in Southern California. You will incur the
following minimum expenses at UC Irvine during the academic year
2005-2006. You will face similar expenses during each subsequent
year:

* Non-Resident Tuition/Fees (3 quarters): $24,712
* Room/Board, Books, Supplies, Transportation: $13,000

In order to obtain visa documents to come to the United States you
will be required to show proof of financial support in the amount of
$37,712 for the nine-month academic year beginning mid-September
2005.

You will need to send us a financial statement from your banking
institution, showing that you can indeed support yourself while
studying here at UC Irvine. (The financial verification documents
you submit for this purpose should be recent, and must be valid for
at least 6 months from the day they are received.)

Additionally, you must submit the Confidential International Applicant
Questionnaire. The Confidential International Applicant Questionnaire
and Financial Support Statement forms (CIAQ Form) are available
online at www.ic.uci.edu. Please carefully follow the instructions
and return your completed paperwork to the Graduate Student
Admissions Coordinator.

Should you have any questions about the University's financial
verification requirements as they relate to visa documents, you are
welcome to contact the International Center staff for advice at
intl@uci.edu.

Once we have received this required documentation, your application
will be sent for final review. If approved for admission, you will
be officially notified (by e-mail, and by mail to your current
mailing address), and the International Center will begin preparing
your visa paperwork.

Unfortunately, we are not prepared to offer admission deferrals at
this time; this recommendation is for the Fall 2005 quarter only. If
you are unable to come to campus for any reason you will have to
reapply in order to be considered for re-admission.

Please respond by e-mail to grad2@ece.uci.edu within two weeks of
receiving this notice. If we do not hear from you by then, we will
assume that you will be unable to attend in Fall 2005.

You may mail your financial verification documents to:

Ronnie Gran
Networked Systems
University of California, Irvine
355 Engineering Tower
Irvine, CA 92697-2625

Or, you may fax your documents to (949) 824-1853.

Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Ronnie Gran (grad2@ece.uci.edu)
Graduate Student Admissions Coordinator
Networked Systems
University of California, Irvine
