Does Ohio State University (http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/research/graphics/) or the University of Pennsylvania (http://cg.cis.upenn.edu) have a better reputation for animation in computer science now? The University of Pennsylvania seems to have more professors that study topics in animation now, but Ohio State University seems to have had more of a historical influence in years gone by and has more professors in graphics in general now (many of them study applications of graphics to science). I received an offer to do a masters at UPenn and an offer to do a PhD with tuition waived for a Graduate Teaching Assistantship at Ohio State.

I was planning on applying for accommodations for ADD (extended testing time) for the GRE (Graduate Record Exam) test. However, it would take so long to get them approved that I am sure not to meet many graduate schools' March / April deadlines. Thus it didn't look like I had much to lose by taking it once without accommodations. My question is this - If I take the GRE now without accommodations and then continue applying for accommodations afterwards, is ETS (the company that runs the exam) more likely to reject my accommodations the second time? Might they argue that by not applying for them the first time that I asserted I didn't need them? I expect I will have a lower score without accommodations due to trouble focusing on the test.
