[zapz]

Anyone planning to go to UMichigan?

Fairfield is sending notifications now

Just got an offer from Kent to work on "Asymptotic distribution of some hybrid arithmetic functions", but I have already committed to an REU. Kind of surprised about an offer coming so much later than my other offers! I also don't understand why I was accepted for that project, because I don't have all of the "recommended background."

JapaneseGinger: Were you accepted to Fairfield? Congrats! I thought Fairfield looked like an awesome REU. I would have loved to attend. I withdrew my application when I got the email from Dr. Rafalski (sp?) saying that if we have other offers, we should accept them, because they didn't know about funding.

Yes, I was! It is definitely one that I wanted to wait for because of my interest in differential equations and numerical methods! I'm very certain I will accept the Fairfield offer. It's a choice between Fairfield and Rutgers for me. And congrats to you on the Kent acceptance! Even though you have committed to another REU, the acceptance is still a nice feeling! Where did you decide on?

James Madison University

I emailed the director of the REU at James Madison University (JMU) and I was told that if I have not heard anything from one of the project mentors yet, that it is safe to assume that I will not be offered a position this summer. I assume that holds true for all of you who have not heard from JMU yet.

Has anyone heard about the Boise State or Missouri State REU's? Auburn has said that they have offered all 8, with 5 accepted and 3 expiring this week.

I know someone who was accepted to Missouri State. I don't know anything about Boise State!

 

[Sherlockys]

Anyone know anything about PSU... I heard back from all others(Boise State sent out rejections like a week ago)

Interactions between Linear Algebra and Ring Theory.

Update: I accepted the offer at Kent.

I just was accepted to Kent for Interactions between Linear Algebra and RIng Theory for summer 2015, and am deciding between Kent, UCSB, and WADE reu. What did you think of Kent??
