After 16 applications 3 invited me to interviews.

5 online interviews.

2 onsite visits (one for a whole 2 weeks?!)

One scholarship run

I got offered 2 positions, and the scholarship run isn't finished yet.

I declined the first immediately after the visit.

I stopped the scholarship run today.

I accepted the third one. It is arguably the best deal I could have made with exciting Science behind it at a mid-rage university with a prestigious PI that I liked as a person.

I'm excited.

I don't have anyone close to me who understands what I accomplished so I share it with you guys.

(No publications, worked in industry, Good but not outstanding grades)

Cheers

Edit: I don't know the chances of an Indian student to get in a specific PhD program. Stop DMing me
