I just got in to the Masters of CS at Columbia, and am wondering if anyone else here intends on going? I don't know much about the program, length, etc, and would be interested to know anything that people are willing to share. I will also probably get into the NYU program. My understanding is that with NYU's merger with Poly, it might not be a great place to be for a while. Does anyone know anything about that?
I applied only to two schools: NYU and Columbia, both in New York. Does anyone have any experience with the masters programs at these schools? How long does it generally take for them to come back with a decision?
