Does anyone know if there is much need-based aid granted by schools in general based on the FAFSA?
-
Well, here's my list so far. I'm MS only.
MIT (reject)
Stanford (reject)
Princeton (awaiting aid, M.Eng program)
Columbia (awaiting aid)
Ann-Arbor (waiting)
Carnegie Mellon (waiting)
Cornell (waiting)
UT Austin (waiting)
Harvard (waiting)
Northwestern (waiting)
Anyone here anything from the schools I'm waiting for decisions from?

no responses since columbia 2 weeks ago....
at least send a rejection letter so i can mark it off the list!

I'm applying for Master's only in EE and have gotten accepted to Columbia and Princeton so far. But the letters they sent me mentioned nothing about any funding. Does that mean they are still considering it and will notify me before the April deadline or does that mean I'm pretty much screwed? I really hope its the former cause there's no way I can afford to pay 50k to go to either school...
Also, should I have submitted a FAFSA already? I was under the impression that grad programs didn't pay much attention to that when awarding funding.
Thanks alot!
M.Eng. vs M.S.

I know it's kinda late to ask since I already applied but...is there any difference between the two degrees? M.Eng. is supposed to be a course-oriented graduate degree, but as far as I know, all M.S. degrees also have course-oriented paths. I just want to make sure that M.Eng. isn't some type of inferior degree to M.S. before I consider paying 32k a year in tuition. Thanks!
