Hey, Congrats. I can understand and relate to the dilemma. I think the main differentiators are your career stage, future plans, and financials. The weights may differ person to person though and hence the overall outcome. For example, for someone with a plan to go for a PhD after Master's, one year research-based program may still be a great choice given it increases your chances to land a PhD at a better place. Similarly, for someone in their middle of the industry career, one year professional program will be an excellent proposition. However, if you are just out of undergrad, I would personally recommend a two-year program. All of this is irrespective to your financial condition, which is often the biggest constraint for many people like me. You are obviously the best judge though. I too have offer from Michigan for SusSys track, however, haven't heard anything on funding which is the limiting factor for me. Please let me know if they themselves sent you funding information last week, or did you request them to reconsider your funding status given you were not awarded fin-aid initially?

I can relate. What all are the programs you got into? How much funding have you got there? Master's is always a trad off between your willingness to enter a certain program and what they offer financially.

How much funding did they provide at Bren?

Got in @Duke. Everything now depends on funding. Waiting to hear from for YSE soon!

Hey Congrats! I too got in for SusSys track. However, didn't hear anything on funding, which for me is the deciding factor. How much funding did they offer you?

Hey, I am from India and have applied to YSE, NSOE at Duke, SEAS at UMich, and EPP at CMU. I have a fully funded offer from the Ohio State. So that's the baseline now. My interest area largely covers Energy and Environmental issues. Anyone from India at this forum? @ryan.nil Good to hear that you are working in energy sector. I am too.

I am also from India. Ready to discuss similar future prospects. Drop a line at agr.harshit223@gmail.com.

I don't see anyone posting acceptance on this forum. Have all of us here been rejected or someone did make it through?

Did anyone got accepted? I would certainly like to hear what they look for in successful TPP applicants. Thanks in advance.

Got an unexpected rejection. Was the only program that I had applied for. Perhaps the program and I are not the good fit for each other.

No updates yet! Did anyone hear anything from them?
