Anybody else? (Yes, this is some shameless upping of my thread :p)

Thanks for your time! Funding considered, I'd have to pay $35K for Cornell Tech and $55K for UCB. I'm talking about the number of students in the OR Meng programs at these schools!

Hey guys!! I got accepted in Meng programs at Cornell Tech and Berkeley in operations research and I really don't know which one to choose. Location: Cornell Tech is basically in Manhattan and Berkeley well... near SF and close to the Silicon Valley (advantage for Berkeley, to me) Cohort size: only a handful of students at Cornell Tech (like 15) and about 50 in Berkeley (not sure about my preference) Reputation: Cornell Tech's program is extremely recent but relies on Cornell's for credibility, the faculty is good and sounds motivated while Berkeley's program is known to be one of the very best but the faculty seems less involved in it Funding: I got some funding at Cornell Tech but none at Berkeley So yeah, really tough choice... if I had gotten funding in Berkeley, I'd have probably chosen it but now I really don't know. What would you pick? Thanks!

I got accepted in IEOR! No mentions of funding tho

Yeah but rejects are usually sent earlier and I have not seen any.

It's weird though cuz' last year some rejects had already been sent out (for IEOR at least) but this year nothing seems to have come up so far.

Nope!
