i don't know if you guys stumbled upon Nikipedia yet, but it's really useful resource! :] https://wiki.duke.edu/display/nickipedia/Home anyone looking at stanbacks?

I'm also coming from CA sans car! Same program and focus too :] I'm going to search for a summer internship in Durham, so I can move out early and get adjusted. I have a friend who's a current student and I'm going to sublet from her for summer.

i've heard similar things as well. i'm leaning more toward Duke, esp bc of location. I want to end up on the east coast eventually to do national or international energy policy. I feel like UCSB would be better for CA energy policy. As for money, UCSB would be SO SO SO MUCH CHEAPER! I'm a CA resident, so I'd get in-state tuition and it's a public university. Basically, 2 yrs tuition at UCSB < 1 yr tuition at Duke.. I've visited UCSB before, since my sister goes there for undergrad. I'm going to their open house on April 4th to find out more.

For the MEM programs at Duke Nicholas and UCSB Bren, which is the better option for environmental/energy policy? Does anyone have insight into school reputation and strength of alumni network for each program? I'm going to be visiting each school for admit day to see which program is a better fit also. I'm just curious about people's perceptions/knowledge about these programs... Thanks so much!!

why would they not email when the decisions are out???

yep! now just waiting for flight prices to drop..

for everyone that got accepted into Duke, is anyone going to attend the Admitted Students Visitation Weekend April 1-2?

not a word i barely slept last night...

there's a Yale FES thread in the Government Affairs section: people are definitely on their toes!!

accepted to duke as well! have 1 prereq to fill i'm so relieved i got into 1 school so far! waiting on the others now.. :D:D gluck to everyone!!!!

I called Yale's admission office yesterday to ask about the admit process for MESc/MEM. they're just starting to read apps and all notices for admission will be electronic! everyone gets notified the same day. it'll be around march 15th

i did! the other 3 programs i applied to were for environmental management.. so i don't know how good my fit is w.global affairs.. which concentration did you apply for? i chose environment/energy policy. ::fingers crossed!!::

whaaa? i thought it wasn't rolling admissions.. their deadline is tomorrow.. and they're already accepting students? what concentration did you choose?

im starting yoga teacher training tomorrow! it might come in handy in grad school around finals season.. de-stress w.yoga sessions, anyone?
