Anyone in UCLA'S MAS program or a graduate of the program? If so, what were your stats (i.e. T20 school, 3.5 GPA, stat major, 320 GRE), did you get any funding, and how is/was the program?

Yeah, i'd definitely say uva is elite and it's ranked 47 and 69 respectively for grad math and stats also i am a girl edit: thanks for the advice and link to other site! another edit: just wondering, am I better off trying for master's programs and, if so, what tier?

What about applied math?

Also, here are the programs I am considering: GWU - Stat UCLA - Stat Rice - Applied Math Caltech - Applied Math NYU - Masters in CS

Thanks for the response! Grades were pretty good for upper level classes: Probability: B+ Discrete/Proof class: A- RA: B Abstract (I got to take this with Ken Ono!!!): B+ Applied Linear Models (graduate level course): A- Mathematical Statistics: A- Data Analysis: A- I also got a B+ in Algo and A- in Theory of Computation, if that matters Recommendations: real analysis professor (very strong), mathematical stats prof (decent), and employer or applied linear models teacher (decent to strong) I graduated uva with a 3.5 but my cumulative GPA is a 3.65 because my previous institution I had a 3.8, mostly because I was taking lower-level courses which I did very well in

Hi all! I am interested in pursuing a PhD in Applied Math or Statistics. However, I am unsure what tier of programs I should look into (top 10, top 20, etc.) Here's my info! School: T25 State University Majors: Math and Applied Statistics Minor: Computer Science GPA: 3.5; 3.6/3.7 cumulative with previous institution Relevant Coursework: Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Real Analysis, Abstract Algebra, Mathematical Statistics, Probability, Regression Analysis, Applied Linear Models, Time Series, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Data Structure, Theory of Computation, Algorithms Languages: C, C++, Java, Python, R Internships: Private Equity and Consulting, both at top firms during my sophomore and junior summers Research: None GRE (expected - if taken): 310 to 320 Please let me know if any other information is needed
