Hi all, I'm searching for safety schools now and would like to hear your recommendations about colleges for MIS, Software Engineering or Computer Science programs. My only criteria is that the school should have a good record of financial support, not concerned about the rank. Please understand that I'm an International student and I just can cut it without financial support from the school (any form of aid either assistantships, fellowships, fee reduction, anything will do). Thanks a ton.

Thanks for all your replies. I emailed them and they were quick in their response. They have answered part of my questions about internships and general career prospects. But I'm still not clear about their stand on financial support towards International applicants. I need a small favor, I'm having trouble calculating the overall cost of the program. Based on the information available here: http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/graduate_admissions/tuition http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/music/busines ... culum#grad I've calculated the tuition alone to be 54 (total credits) x $1,149 (cost per credit) = $62,046 Is this the correct estimate? Please understand that from where I come we do not have this cost per credit system. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the reply? Can this career counselling be done online? I checked out nyu.edu and cannot find the appropriate link. Thanks again.

Hi, I'm from India and I'm thinking of applying to the MA program in Music Business @ Steinhardt (NYU). I have over 2+ (3 years next fall) in Software development and have a Bachelors degree in computer sciene. I've always had a longing to work in the music business but I still can't figure out if I'd fit in there. Pursuing an MA grad degree would be a major deviation from my technical career and I have some apprehensions about it. I'd really like to work on digital music and Internet based music distribution & delivery. This is where I think my technical background could help me. I deeply appreciate your comments, please let me know on whatever you think. Thanks.

Hi, I'm from India and I have a 4 years bachelor's engineering degree in computers and I'm thinking of doing a graduate degree now. I have over two years of experience and currently work in a well known web 2.0 startup. I'm basically interested in new media, technology, design, electronics, algorithm design etc. My friends are suggesting that I go for an MBA or a M.S in Management Information System(MIS), but I dont think either of those two will really interest me and besides I don't want to end up as a "suit". I'd be really glad if anyone can help me figure out a course considering my above mentioned interested.Thanks. P.S. I looked at the MAS progam from Media Lab @ MIT and its exactly what I want, but I heard the acceptance rate is as low as 12%. Is it really hard to get into Media Lab?
