Hello folks. This is my first post in the forum, so kindly pardon me if this is in the wrong section. Anyway, I'm in my final year of undergrad from a college in India, majoring in Electronics and Communication. I want to pursue an MS with a focus on Nano-electronics/Nanodevices. I've been doing quite a lot of research but I can't decide between a few schools. Anyway, after a lot of research and thanks to this link , I am applying to the following schools: SUNY CNSE, Albany.UMass, AmherstPurdue Wisconsin MadisonUC San DiegoUMinn, Twin CitiesASU, Tempe. USC Georgia Tech UCLA UMCP Now, I'm planning to apply to 8-9, and I cant pick among the last 4. So, any advice here would be extremely appreciated. Funding is a concern, and I can't afford anything more that 35k tuition per year.
