PhD Application Follow-up: IELTS Score, Publication Update, and Meeting Request

Dear Prof. Leu,

I would like to express my gratitude for your kind and prompt response. I am pleased to inform you that my total IELTS score is 6.5, and I have enclosed my IELTS transcript for your reference. Additionally, I am delighted to inform you that I have submitted an article to the Chemical Engineering Journal as the first author, and it is currently under review. I am determined to publish another Q1 paper before applying for the PhD program at PolyU.

Regarding our previous discussion, I would like to inquire if it would be possible for me to contact you again in mid-August to confirm the specific time for a further discussion. I am available at the end of August and would greatly appreciate your guidance and input during our meeting.

Lastly, I want to express my heartfelt appreciation for providing detailed information about the PhD application process. Your willingness to share information about your student has been immensely helpful in supporting my application. Should I have any further questions, I will certainly reach out to Dr. Zhuang as you have suggested.

Thank you once again for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,

Bohan Chen'}
