  1. Hi All!

    I am a recent graduate (c/o 2016) interested in pursuing a Masters and/or PhD in Urban Planning in Fall 2018 (Interested in merging Public Health and Analytics - Using City/Regional data to create healthier spaces)
    Undergrad Major: Global Health and Environment, 3.39 GPA (3.76 major GPA)
    GRE: Haven't taken it yet, but I'm a decent test taker and will probably score in the upper 70s or mid/lower 80 percentile)
    Programs: Columbia GSAPP's MSUP (Urban Analytics), UC Berkeley,

    I have spent the past few months interning at public health organizations (domestic & internationally)

    Here are my questions:
    (1) Do I have a chance at getting into Columbia and/or Berkeley? Are there other graduate programs that focus on data?

    (2) Considering more competitive applicants with higher marks, is it possible to receive a scholarship or RA-ship funding for a graduate program with my grades? How can I become more competitive?

    I don't know anyone in real life who is in UP, which is why I'm here. Anything is better than nothing, so please please impart some knowledge! Thank you!

    **Also please do the poll above to help me be more competitive, :)
