I will go too!! Will PM you, we can meet there. Happy to learn that FES has such a good rep, making my almost choice a bit easier. Thanks guys!

I am under the same situation, as an international student I am not sure how both schools rank in the field and which one is better to secure jobs after graduation. The smaller classes at Yale are a plus in terms of learning experience, however the bigger network at Columbia also helps a lot. I am under the impression that SIPA holds more events for the students to network too and while both schools have an amazing reputation in general, Yale's brand seems to be more prestigious. Additionally, I really love New York and all that it offers and am very concerned with New Haven's bad rep. One thing is for sure, New Haven is cheaper than New York. Really torn between both schools, would love to hear what others think.

I got in!!! Can't believe it!! my acceptance letter came with a financial aid letter attached offering a 50K fellowship and additional assistantship for the second year. Super happy

Congrats Purewar23!!!!!!

Any new admits these past two weeks? Good luck to all!

Wow that sounds horrible, thank you for the info! I actually don't qualify for HGS, but I definitely tried and was informed it is only for graduate students of the School of Arts and Sciences. Do you know of anyone that was living in the Yale owned apartments downtown?

The same thing happened to me. In the end I didn't have enough time to retake the exam and had to submit my scores that way. Fortunately, I got in at my top choice, so don't worry too much about it. One thing you can do is submit your scores to meet the deadline and explain the situation to the admissions officer and they will probably give you a few more days to submit your new scores after the deadline has passed.

I hope you do get in Purewar23, you have a great profile. Best of luck! No word on any of your universities yet? I've had no news... Can't barely concentrate at work, specially because I haven't heard what is Fulbright's position in all of this which is making me more nervous. I am afraid they will not want to choose my top choice. I wish for April 15th to come already, but we are two months away!

Hi dachensky, congrats on your acceptance!! I believe you can find some info on both programs here: Also, you should try to attend both open houses if you can. I am sure that it will make your decision much easier. Best of luck!

Have you heard from your schools yet JJ123? I am very curious as I as planning to apply to both HKS and Princeton but couldn't meet the deadlines. :s

Hi Kerry1234, for the Fulbright Scholarship you must apply through the US Embassy of your country.

Thanks btw!!!! Totally missed the first part of the message from my phone Good luck to you!!

I applied to Berkeley´s MDP! Not too sure about it, I`ve tried contacting Eunice Kim via e-mail several times to update something on my application and I get no replies. During the application process I tried contacting her too and she only answered 1 out of 5-6 e-mails. Hope they received my application at least.

MEM. You? To what other schools did you apply Jojo2015? I´m waiting for another 5, but I think that most of them will answer by mid march-early april.
