  1. Only program I got rejected from, but I guess we weren´t a great fit I am more of a hands on kind of person and LSE sounds waaay too theory based. Congrats!
  2. I am sure it is, but I want to see it and see the classes before committing myself to it, especially because I got such an amazing funding but also got accepted into other programs in cities I know and like a lot (DC).
  3. that's true, however the email did say that they were not sending them through snail mail unless we explicitly solicit it!
  4. E-mail, I am international so it will take too long. I am visiting in two weeks to check out the school!
  5. Same here, in state tuition waiver plus 50k for the two years, hard that anyone can match up!
  6. Total immersion helps a lot but also ask your professors to grade your grammar and spelling and correct you! I studied in the US and was a pretty bad writer until I had a very anal thesis advisor who correctedvme everything, that made me a better writer in English than in my native language!
  7. So finally got my "official admission decision" in the webpage but the word funding is not mentioned anywhere, anyone else´s mentions it or that will come separately?
  8. To make it up for Goldman http://gspp.berkeley.edu/admissions/why-choose-gspp/admissions-stats
  9. Oh I got confused by WWS then...Im pretty sure I saw the figure....sorry!
  10. HKS 7% depending of the year, Goldman no clue
  11. So this is what a rejection feels like, oh well first strike when I already made a home it ain´t bad!

  12. Erasmus mundus is not very well known in the US, and due to money shortages the quality has slipped! From those unis however leuven is a very good school! Madrid is ok but is not the best for sciences, can't really speak for the rest
  13. Funding as in merit aid does not require a separate process and it will come within the week in our admissionsnletter (if they give us any), for financial aid we do need to fill in an application although that one varies according to where you are from. From what I gather from friends in UT graduate students do not live on campus, life in austin is inexpensive in comparison to other places in the US though, check out craigslist.com for info on housing. In order to obtain your I20 a document needed for your visa you need to have funds availiable between personal ,loans and funding equal to tuition and estimated costs of living for a year which the university stipulates. I believe for LBJ that is a bit under 40k. Hope it helps! more questions PM me.
  14. It is really really cold! Oh and it has a bad rep among ngo workers and left wing global leaders due to Milton Friedman (who had nothing to do with Harris but you should hear some people).
  15. No idea I´m international so she mentioned by email. Maybe for Americans it is different.
  16. He probably just made a silly mistake, can we please refrain of calling each other names for liking/hating a school, for making mistakes, for being a current student and providing information? It just creates a toxic environment which is not the point of this forum at all but to inform ourselves.
  17. Yep it is! Funding will come this week, just spoke to Prabhu and she mentioned the funding offers will come this or next week with our official LBJ letters!
  18. Thanks! Hate the austin plataform, most messed up system to apply anywhere, thank god I had alteady checked their website because their weird Sunday email sounded like a rejection one!
  19. Does either letter mention the word funding anywhere?
  20. Just got an email and the admissions letter is now avaliliable at the webpage but it doesnt mention the word funding anywhere, Not if I got any or not.....is it the same for all? i mean it is still a lot cheaper but i really want to know!
  21. Im guessing that is the case, I mean they haven' even mailed us to check the page thus we weren't yet supposed to know!
  22. Thanks, any idea if we can visit on other days? i want to go on the 15th do you think it is possible?
