I am open to that!!!! trying to make a decision over here and have had a lot of chats with current and formers students. Happy to share that knowledge...
that’s great! Did you talk to current Bren alumni? What did they say about the college ?

It said on the admitted students page they will make one (a FB group) in July after people have decided & put down their deposits. Kinda weird they don't want us to connect before then ? I assume that some groups help people make their decisions...
I think we will find out the students during the admitted student webinar.

Is there any group for Bren admitted students ? Would love to connect

Just got into Bren. My first acceptance after getting a reject from Yale and SEAS. I’m waitlisted at Duke. Will still prefer Duke over UCSB.
-
Any idea about Duke waitlist ? If it actually gets cleared ?
-
How is the Penn MES program ? Which one is better- Penn MES or Columbia Sustainability Management ?

I applied to Nicholas and SEAS for the regular deadline on Jan 15! They both said in info sessions that the only difference in deadlines was that priority may hear back sooner, but based on previous years it seems like they tend to release all decisions at once. In an applicant webinar held after the regular deadline, SEAS reps said everyone would hear back in a few weeks (though that time has passed by now, lol).
The acceptance rates at these programs are sort of misleading imo, though if anyone has a better understanding please correct me as I'm solely going off of statements made in info sessions and past threads here! The applicant pools overall are highly qualified and passionate, so it is genuinely competitive. Further, different programs may lean more towards different types of applicants, like midcareer vs fresh out of undergrad. I genuinely have no idea what my chances for acceptance are, haha.
I considered applying to Columbia's Sust. Management program. If you do it full time it's shorter than a 2-year program, so it ends up having a lower ticket price (but they don't really do financial aid). From what they said in info sessions, it's a good fit if you're 1) really wanting to work in NYC, as that's where the majority of their alumni network is and/or 2) looking for a program that can be part time. Most of their students are working professionals who attend part time and I believe most classes are held in the afternoon or night as a result. I chose to not apply (for now, anyway) as I wanted a program that was more heavily interdisciplinary and in-depth on certain issues like policy and environmental justice.
In one of the webinars I had attended for SEAS Sustainable System, the faculty had mentioned that they will release the decisions by 26th February. So lets see what happens.

Did anyone apply after the priority deadline ( after 15th Dec)? I am anxiously waiting for the results too. Also any idea how is the Columbia Sustainability Management program? Also it seems Duke Nicholas School has a high acceptance rate, any idea ?
