Um, this is a somewhat related question to the original poster's.
Can someone describe the general reputation of the phd program in english at the cuny graduate center for me? Just, maybe, if you could sum up your general impression in one sentence, what would you say? And maybe list some other schools which you feel to be on par with cuny?
I know this is a silly question, and my only excuse is that I don't really know much about the American educational system. There are some professors there who are doing very interesting research, and cuny generally gets around a 20ish place on most ranking systems. However, it is relatively unknown in my country, so I would really like to hear your opinion. Thanks!
