It really depends on where you see yourself in future: do you want to be an academic in the US (UofC) or in the UK/ Europe (Oxford) or work in public or international organizations (Oxford) or private sector (UofC)
Voila! I hope that helps!
The problem is the monezz as I said. And as @sociologicalpizza said, they give out partial monezz. But I have no monezz (poor kid from Global South yay!) But again, I might try to push this Columbia business and see where it takes me (no harm there as you say)
Got an email from Columbia that I should apply for MA (rejected from PhD tho and not much monezz for MA) because they liked my profile. Am I the only one here? (just to see what this all means)
Did you get into Chicago? Because I had an interview with POI, which I replay in my head and it looks like a disaster. Not heard anything from them after the end-January interview.
Hello folks! First post in the thread!
I can claim acceptance to: UNC-Chapel Hill, UC Irvine and CUNY Graduate Centre. (all funded)
Rejected: Berkeley + UCLA
Killing myself over: Princeton, Chicago, Columbia
Waiting: Cornell, The New School-NSSR
Had an interview with the prof I want to work with for Chicago, end January. Not heard anything after and I am about to have a nervous breakdown (after all the acceptances I see in the result)
I have been browsing schools so far and have a hard time finding programs that do a lot of quantitative sociology (combined with qualitative or theory)
Cornell seems to have a few faculty members. But the rest, I am having a hard time.
A bit of story: I have MA in economics and transitioning to sociology. I enjoy doing quantitative work (which I seem to be good at) and want to add a dimension of qualitative and theory to it.
Any recommendations of schools, programs, faculty?
Many thanks
