Hey, I am thinking of applying to Brandeis CL MS. I am a CS undergrad and the only knowledge of Linguistics I have is through the books I've read and a MOOC from Coursera. I was actually not planning to apply to Brandeis because of its high tuition but then decided to give it a shot anyway. I wanted to know how competitive is Brandeis and does it offer scholarships? Also any idea about the school, its environment and curriculum, and tips for SOP would be really appreciated!
