architect!

Hello everybody! Well, I have finally decided to enroll the Columbia's MS in Historic Preservation! :) Even knowing that it presents some flaws, I still believe that is by far the most prestigious (and the most ancient) program in Historic Preservation, not only in the US but also worldwide. So, see you in NYC this September, guys!

Nice! Congratulations!!! I have also received an acceptance mail and grant offer from Pratt last Friday! Now I am trying to decide between Pratt and Columbia. I have always wanted to study at Columbia but I have received such a kind and personal mail from Pratt... They made me feel like a special student! I do not know what I am going to do! But I have promised myself that I am going to make a decission this weekend... so I'll let you know in a couple of days... maybe we will be classmates this September!

Hi geo22! Have you got news from Pratt?? I have also applied there but have not received news til now... As I have previously said I have been admitted to Columbia ((L) Manhattan) so I think that I'll go there... but I would like to make my decission once I have received an answer from Pratt! xD Have you applied to other programs?!

Wow! What a hard decission to make! It is a pity to hear that you have decided not to go to Columbia! Are there no possibilities to correct the mistake you made not sending them the application for need-based aid? I do believe that Columbia's program is really interesting! (and the senior program as well!) In fact I have almost decided to go there! When do you have to make your final decission?!

Hello, all! (I am not an English native speaker so, please, forgive me for the huge amount of mistakes I'm surely going to make!) I've just received an email confirming that I've been admited to Columbia's MS in Historic Preservation! I am really excited as it was my very first option (I have also applied to Penn, Pratt and SCAD but haven't had any news from them til now...) I have been reading this forum during the last weeks and, now that I am officially admited to Columbia, I must confess that I am really worried about what ladygirltomboy said of Columbia's MSHP! Is it so bad?! I am MArch and I have always wanted to applied to Columbia MS in Historic Preservation. ladygirltomboy: How would you describe your classmates? I mean... are they achitects, historians, people who just want to have a degree from Columbia...? Is there a passion-for-preservation atmosphere? Please say yes! And the professors? Are they motivated? Good? Bad? I do not live in the US so I won't be able to attend the open house, so any help will be very welcome! PS- Any future classmates around here?
