My decision was between UCLA and UC Berkeley. I chose Berkeley for many reasons, but the most important was the support I would have with my kids from family, Berkeley's student parent community, and student parent grant. UCLA has some resources but doesn't compare to Berkeley's. As a mother of two, I know I am going to need a strong support system to get through grad school and make the most out of my experience.

Never mind. I was able to create it. Please look up UC Berkeley MSW Class of 2019

Great! I'll start by creating a group for all MSW students when I get home tonight. Can't wait to meet you all!

I haven't found a FB group yet. If one hasn't been created yet, I'll start one myself. I'm in the health concentration. Let me know!!

Has anyone started a FB page?

Experience negotiating financial packages for a Masters?

I'm curious if you ended up negotiating. I'm currently trying to figure out funding. -

I'm actually considering UCLA. They might give me all the funding I need for the 2 years! I'm hoping to know for sure this week, but I can't deny it will sting a little to say no to Berkeley.

I received an email on Saturday. I got in!

Master of Public Policy (M.P.P.) Decision!
MarleneM replied to MarieG.'s topic in Decisions, Decisions
Any advice on negotiating funding? I never knew this was negotiable and don't know if this is done with Financial Aid, Major Dept, or Grad Admission. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.- 11 replies

Fall 2017 EECS Applicant Profiles and Admission Results
MarleneM replied to abcde12345's topic in Engineering
Hello, I received word of my nomination yesterday. I have no idea if I should start celebrating yet. Are nominations from each dept. sent to the graduate division just for final approval or have you heard of anyone being nominated and not getting the fellowship?
