fall2019

West coast friends, help me decide! Work: 4+ years of work experience mainly in education I'm originally from socal and have been away for the last 10 years, currently living in the Bay Area (ultimate goal is to work in socal) Schools: USC (full ride), Berkeley (year 1: tuition/fees + stipend, year 2: small stipend only) I want a strong quant program so in that regard Berkeley wins, but establishing a professional network in socal is a big draw for USC. I can see myself happy in both places. I'm already in the Bay Area so I'd have to factor in moving costs. Is anyone in a similar boat? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Any advice on talking with Berkeley for more $$. Berkeley gave me a small award while USC gave me a full-tuition scholarship. Any advice on how to approach my conversation with them. Thanks in advance!

omg finally the anxiety is over.... i got in with a small dept fellowship for year 1.

did anyone hear back?

Has anyone heard back?
