I recently finished the application season (Masters) and have the following acceptances:
UCSD, Duke, Columbia, Boston University, Northwesterm
These are amongst others (Yale, Berkeley, Cornell, Michigan, UCLA, etc.) however they were either one year or non-thesis programs, or the university's main focus was not BME so I have decided to throw those out. Again if you think that isn't a wise decision please let me know.
I have also been waitlisted at Hopkins, and am looking to accept that should I get in.
Anyone familiar with these schools that can help me out? I am looking very closely at UCSD, Duke, Columbia and Boston for the moment. Duke and UCSD due to their reputation for biomedical engineering and Columbia because of it's ivy-league ties (and its entrepreneurship bent). Boston is also attractive because Boston is quickly becoming a major hub of biomedical engineering, and is next to some very good schools (MIT, Harvard).
My future goals are either to become an entrepreneur or join industry, however it is still important for me to complete a thesis during this masters degree.
Thank you for your help!
