Thanks very much for your advice~ Would anyone vote for Tufts? Actually I prefer Tufts to Boston U, because it offers funding and it's a small program. I just can't decide between UBC and Tufts.

Hello everyone~ I have applied for the 2011 Fall master program in economics, and now I am choosing from the schools below: Canadian school: UBC US schools: Boston University, Tufts University I know the Department of Economics at UBC has a good international reputation, which is very appealing since I plan to apply for PhD programs after I get the MA degree. However, I cannot persuade myself to give up US schools and go to Canada (no offense), and one of my friends who is attending schools at Boston strongly encourages me to live and study there. As April 15th is approaching, I feel quite helpless about making the final decision. I really need your advice. Thank you^^

Thanks~ But what if School B offered me admission after April 15? Is there any possibility to contact school A and ask for extension?

I have already decided to attend a master program (School A) about two weeks ago, but yesterday one university (School B ) emailed me that they had put me on the waiting list for their PHD program. They say that they could not give me the final decision before April 15th. Although School B has been my dream school, I don't think the chance to be admitted by them is big. Should I decline School A and wait for School B? I really need your help! Thanks~
