Dear Prospective Student,
you should know that emails such as yours are much discouraged. At
almost all universities, they reduce your chances of admission.
You must understand that I get about 12 emails from prospective students
EVERY DAY. That is over 4000 emails per year, which is highly annoying.
This is far worse than all the other spam mail I get, trying to sell me
credit cards, mortgages, water filters, long distance telephone
service, and life insurance.
It turns out that most of these students send the same email to multiple
professors at the same university, telling each of them that "their
research interest match". If you are sending this to more than one
professor, it is obviously a lie. And a lie that is very easy to catch
on our end. And if we catch someone not telling the truth, do you
think we would admit him or her to our university?
Also, you should never send email to a professor until you have
already applied and paid the admission fee. Sending email to anyone
before that point is offensive - the university might get the idea
that you are trying to avoid the fee.
Please tell all your friends that they should NOT send email to
professors unless they have found the ONE to maximum of THREE
professor in the whole U.S. who is the absolutely best fit - and then
send email only to that one two or three professors. It is a nonsense
sending these emails, and a myth that they increase your chances of
admission. In reality, they REDUCE your chances of admission at many
universities.
At all good universities, admission is done by a committee. The
committee collects information, among this is a list of all the students
that individual professors have been communicating with. There is no
individual professor who can admit or reject a student - but if the same
student appears on the list of many professors, that is a good
indication for rejection.
You should stop ruining your career, if it isn't already too late.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Michael
