  1. I was recently accepted to both Columbia and U Pitt's master's programs for biostatistics. For personal reasons, it seems that I will likely end up attending U Pitt. The question is straightforward: what is the cost of foregoing Columbia for Pitt? Any input giving info regarding outcomes for grads of both programs would be appreciated, especially from alumni. Thanks in advance!!
  2. So, I've put together a tentative list of program to which I plan to apply: Cornell (NYC program), U Mass, U Pitt, UMD, GWU, Georgetown, Dartmouth (Quant. Biostats), Boston U, Brown, Rutgers Does this seem like a fair assessment of programs for which I would be a competitive candidate, or am I aiming too high?
