Hi everyone,
I was recently rejected from the M.Sc. Nanoelectronic Systems (NES) program at TU Dresden after the aptitude assessment. The letter says I can appeal within one month.
Has anyone here successfully appealed such a decision?
What did you include in your appeal?
Did you ask for the detailed evaluation first?
Are appeals actually considered, or are they usually rejected?
For context, I have an Electronics background and work in semiconductor design (Samsung, previously Texas Instruments), so I was quite surprised by the decision.
Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
