I'm choosing between Park Evanston, and AMLI Evanston. AMLI Evanston is definitely cheaper but I'm afraid the area is less safe than downtown Evanston. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Hello I know this question has been asked a numerous of times but they are mostly PhDs situation. I paid a $200 deposit to NYU steinhardt for a master program. I was wait listed by northwestern for a while and they accepted and I was waiting for their financial aids offer. They finally released it and I was more than satisfied by the amount. I want to notify nyu that I will no longer be attending this fall. What's the best etiquette in doing so since Im not really under any professors. Should I call or email?

I think you should definitely try and apply to all of them. Although I have experience with people that are doing the msw program at uw (I'm from Seattle). They have stellar GPA and gre, they accept a decent amount of people I must say but the three people that I know that are in the program has a ugpa 3.7+ and gre around 75%+. Hope this helps!

Me too I'm going to a Big 10 university for my master and I intend to get crazy about sport games even I will be old compared to the undergrads. I need to catch up on all the craziness that I miss by going to a d3 school LOL

I've been to most big cities in the us (Vegas, Boston, dc, NYC, la, San Francisco, Chicago, Orlando...) and most places in Asia and Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, places in Korea and Japan). I really really wanna go to the big cities in Europe and Egypt). I personally was born in Seattle but moved immediately to Hong Kong. I stayed there for 10 years then moved back to Seattle for middle school and high school. Now I'm finishing undergrad in upstate New York. Mostly likely will be moving to Chicago this coming fall.

Haha this makes a lot of sense and gave me a chuckle

Remember that frustration never helps! Sometimes it just takes time for everything to settle down. You do worse when you put yourself down and trying to force good result to come out. It's important to understand and accept your condition and move forward. I understand this is a frustrating time for you and I hope you have someone that you can talk to. I'm sure no one will truly understands what you are going through but I believing a patient listener can really help gather your emotion and pull yourself together during exam time. Good luck!

How's the medication working for you? Are you regularly seeing a therapist/psychologist/psychiatrist? Good luck on the exam!!!! I hope everything goes well.

it's so fascinating to see that a lot of people are super attached to their undergrad school! For me I feel like it will be the opposite, because my school is division 3 and where I'm going has division 1 sport teams. But as you said, I might not be as involved in sports and "undergrad" stuff compared to undergrad. I guess I will just have to wait and see

iPhone is way too small for my taste and I don't like to wear headphones.

Good to know! I really wanna keep wearing my undergraduate stuff in grad school but I also don't want people to think I'm that "d-bag" who still thinks he's in undergrad.

What about for people that only have an undergraduate and master? Any opinions? What's the trend in conference and stuff?

I lived in HK for 10 years, then in Seattle (rainy city) for 8 years. After Seattle, I lived in upstate New York (Rochester the snowy city) for 4 years. All I can say is you will adapt I will probably spend another 2 years in this cold and snowy city LOL

Not really a problem. Just out of curiousity.
