HI Slorg! I sent you a personal message. Hope you can read it. To be short, I want to ask you How did you hear from UT Austin? How long ago was it? I appliead to the MSc/PhD program at the Electrical Eng. school earlier and still waiting. Thank you!

Hi! First of all, congratulations in all your admittances. Is a great pool of universities you have there. Personally, I don't know the field you are seeking a graduate study (if Data mining was supposed to tell me something, sorry..i don't know what that is.. hehe :S) I can tell you that I applied to UCLA and UTAustin, both of them in the Electrical Engineering field. I don't know much about job placement (I am a venezuelan living in Caracas so I don't have with me the best info). From what I've seen in webpages, I thought I could give you my humble insight. Carnegie Mellon is an extremely good university. If you stick by ranking (again, my saying in this is biased by the fact that I know about Electrical Engineering), CMU is the winner. CMU has a great reputation in two fields: Robotics and Information Technology (IT,networking). UTAustin has a great reputation in Communications. It's one of the most competitive in this field. UCLA is a great place for wirelees comunications and has a profile similar to UTexas. UMaryland is unknown by me. Also, I would like to take advantage of this to ask you about my status. I was accepted into UCLA's MSc in Electrical engineering. In this sense, I would like to ask _Hamlet_ why does he say that UCLA is the best choice. I think it can help me as well. Another question I have, is that, I've also applied to UTAustin in the Electrical Engineering field but I have not received an answer yet. How did you hear from them? How long ago was it? Thank you!

Greetings to the community! I recently got accepted into the Master of Engineering at the electrical school in Cornell. Originally i was applying to the Master in Science but got rejected there and was offered the MEng instead. Therefore, I wanted to ask you, especially those who have attended the MEng, your thoughts in this program. I am more into the research kind of program so that is why I am having second thoughts... I also was accepted in the Master in Science/PhD at UCLA... I was wondering if I can first go to Cornell and then to UCLA...what do you say? Or what would you do? Is it common for Master of Engineering at Cornell students that once they are studying there, they could talk to the teachers to require admissions into the Master in Science program at Cornell? Thank you so much! I know that your experience will be of great help for this humble venezuelan...hehe
