I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice/past experiences about applying to the MIT phD nuclear engineering program. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

They only let in as many students as they have funding for. It is extremely competitive and you usually have to have some type of research experience to be considered.
