Hi everyone,
I've recently been admitted to the MA in Liberal Studies at CUNY and the Draper interdisciplinary program at NYU. Though already leaning towards CUNY for many reasons, I still want to hear your opinions.
I just graduated from a well-recognized liberal arts college. My final goal is a PhD in social science, but I did not have much research experience before. That's why I think MA will help me.
I've met the professors at CUNY graduate center. They were very friendly and wanted to introduce me to people at different research centers. I'm also very interested in what they do. NYU, on the other hand, has not been responding to my emails about specific classes or professors, so I'm still not very sure about what will happen if I go there. Given my goals and how short a masters is, I should be able to start working on things asap. But considering NYU has always been my dream school, it is hard to make this decision.
Please let me know what you think. Any suggestion will be appreciated!
