  1. I received the same fellowship. If I'm remembering correctly, $10k is a straight scholarship while the other $5k is to support research with your advisor and other academic opportunities. As far as I know it's a one-time thing.
  2. Program Applied To: MEM and one Marine Affairs Schools Applied To: Yale, Duke, Michigan, UCSB, UW Schools Accepted To: All; funding info from all but Yale Undergraduate Institution: Top 10 liberal arts college Undergraduate Major: Environmental studies, geology Years Out of Undergrad (if applicable): 1.5 Years of Work Experience: 1.5 since graduating; various research and internship experience while in college Describe Relevant Work Experience: For the last year and a half, an environmental law nonprofit, mostly fisheries policy work--writing, research, outreach, etc. In college, two-year environmental economics research project resulting in a publication, geology fellowship/REU that became my thesis work, and various other smaller research/international experiences.
  3. I heard back about the masters program on Feb 18 via email, then received funding and advising information a few days ago by mail.
  4. Woo, congrats!
  5. Congrats to you too! And yes, that was the last of my schools...now for the fun task of trying to make a decision.
  6. Just heard positively from Duke as well! Have faith that acceptances are still on their way.
  7. I heard from Yale weirdly early - Jan 24. I'm interested in coastal management, so for that reason Bren probably ranks above Yale for me, but Yale has such a great program that I'm definitely not ruling it out. Sort of waiting for financial information and visits to work everything out. I also got a really great offer from UW's Master's of Marine Affairs program, so that's a very strong contender for me. I also just heard good news from Michigan/SNRE yesterday! Only waiting on Duke at this point, which is a bit of a bummer since it's right at the top of my list, but I really can't complain.
  8. I've been accepted to both Yale and Bren, along with one other program. No word on funding from either one yet, but both indicated that any financial offers would be made in early March. I think Bren has a great reputation--sort of the Yale/Duke of the west coast, especially for coastal management, which is what I'm primarily interested in. I'm under the impression both schools will still be making more offers, so I wouldn't be too nervous yet! Waiting to hear from Duke, however, is killing me...
