Cloud Nine

Most of you know that I have been trying for doctoral studies for quite some time now. Without any journal publication and with not so great GRE score it was tough applying to various universities. The disheartening regret letters filled my room. I spent around 60,000 INR applying to Universities abroad as well as in India (The application fee is quite expensive in most universities)

Finally, there is a good news. I am offered admission for Ph.D. in the School of Computer Engineering at NTU, Singapore with full scholarship! I have not received the offer letter yet, the information has been obtained from NTU website. The most interesting thing is that I have not spent any money while applying to NTU. :)

If everything goes fine I should be in Singapore by August 2010. :)
