Okay, I just got a reject from MIT last evening by post, was my dream school. Anyway, I am not disappointed. I've got other good options in hand and MIT was probably not meant to be.. I really need some help from you guys on deciding where to go. All my options are equally interesting and appealing to me and I DON'T mind having to take up a loan. So purely from an industry career perspective, where do you guys think I should go?
I have plans of pursuing an MBA later on, so I have to look on what would be good from that angle as well.
I'll just list my choices below.
1. UC Berkeley - MS in Chemical Engineering with specialization on Product Development.
2. Stanford - Dual Masters in Management science and engg and Chemical Engineering
3. Georgia Tech - MS in Chemical Engineering fully funded plus 26k per annum stipend.
4. U Michigan - Ann Arbor - MS in Chemical Engineering
5. Carnegie Mellon - Dual Masters in Chemical Engg and Colloids, Polymers and Surfaces.
6. Northwestern - MS in Chemical Engineering
7. U Penn - MS in Chemical Engineering
Frankly, I am not really considering beyond the first 4 options but just for the record, I have them also in hand.
But I am open to hearing what you guys have to say.. In a real dilemma.. Help me!!
