Can someone suggest me which to choose between OR major at UT Austin and Texas A&M. As far as I have known, Texas A&M has a larger faculty in terms of numbers but, most of the people I know who made to Texas A&M were rejected by Austin. The research options for my field of interest are pretty much similar in both these univs and the ORIE program of UT Austin is an area under Mechanical Engg Deptt. Could someone advise me regarding this dilemma :cry: Thanks in advance!

Rejected for SM at ORC. The same old diplomatic rejection... "This year the Operations Research Center received a large number of applications from outstanding candidates, and we are in the unfortunate situation of having many more qualified applicants than we have spaces in our program. Therefore, even though your credentials are very strong, we regret that we are unable to offer you admission to the interdepartmental graduate degree program in Operations Research."
