  1. Hi all, I've been admitted to Columbia and NYU for their respective Bioethics programs. I am having a hard time choosing between... I really like Columbia (of course) but their program is in their School of Continuing Education... is that a problem? Also, I really like NYU (their philosophy dept, which is connected to my program, is amazing). I just am conflicted about turning down a school like Columbia. What to do, what to do? Please vote and let me know!
  2. Hi all, I've been reading that I may be at a disadvantage if I get my Master's from Columbia's School of Continuing Education. Is there any merit to this claim? The program that I want (MS in Bioethics) looks great at Columbia, and it would be nice to have a degree from there. BUT is a degree from their CE looked at in a negative way? Will it hurt me if I want to pursue a PhD program in the future? Thanks.
  3. You're right.. thanks for helping me so much. I will call both programs tomorrow.
  4. I think I am trying to not get my hopes up too high. I hope I didn't come across rude! Nobody has ever told me that before.. I've always assumed that such good schools would have very low acceptance rates... thank you!
  5. Thanks. I am leaning towards doing so. Do you think that I will be at a disadvantage if I have my applications out by the end of next month, being that the deadlines for my programs are May 1st and May 15th?
  6. Both programs lead to the Master's degree. The programs are not quant heavy at all to my knowledge. I am expecting both to be philosophical in nature. So, should I still try and increase the Q score? What do you think?
  7. Bioethics. NYU requires a 10-page writing sample... I took this as a sign that the AW was important (?). Thanks.
  8. Hello all, I am applying to Columbia and NYU for a Masters program in Bioethics. I took the GRE 10 days ago and I received pretty low scores: 159V 151Q and 4.0AW. My disappointment was in my AW score... as that is only in the 54th percentile. Should I retake the GRE? Thank you for your help.
