  1. Hey- Not sure what your goals are but I've spoken to a few people at real estate funds about these programs. They said that in general the msred degree is not looked upon as great. The mdess in particular is not a finance based program. That why you'll see many people who apply to msred programs won't even apply to harvard. They'll apply to mit, Cornell, USC, columbia as those are the ones with the best rep. This is the feel I'm getting by speaking to people. If your going for finance, I wouldn't go for gsd. If your going for design and development then I would do more research.
  2. HC4 Sorry about that. Maybe I'm just in denial. On the results section though there is only one reported acceptance to real estate and it says deciding between mdess and columbia- so I assume that was you. Other than that one, there is no real estate acceptance. Could be most people don't report on grad cafe- just thought since re was the largest concentration there would be more people. Regardless, congrats.
  3. ^ HCol On the results thread I am pretty sure HC4 wrote that he got into both gsd and columbia msred. I know columbia hasn't given out decisions yet so I don't believe this person. Not sure why these people do that.... Like you said, I haven't seen an real estate mdess posts yet. So, I am hoping they haven't released decisions for that program yet and are doing it by concentration- which makes the most sense.
  4. hc4 congrats! Did not hear my decision yet. Did you get into Columbia also?
  5. Looks like decisions are out for some. Assuming rejection as havent gotten anything yet..
  6. Was waiting so anxiously on Friday for the results that never came. When do you guys think they'll come out?
  7. Nice! Which concentration did you apply for ? I applied for real estate. I am hoping we hear back by this Monday or Tuesday. Going off of last years thread, mdess applicants heard a few days after M. arch applicants.
  8. Buddy- You have an interview from Harvard and MIT. Who cares if that guy helped a little- you had to have the credentials and great factors for that guy to push you over the edge in the application process. If you didnt cut it- there would be no way they invited you just because the guy is well known. Get excited.
  9. When do all your find out? I find out beginning of March and mid-march. Applied to two master programs. This waiting is driving me nuts.
  10. Hi- Anyone else waiting for mdess decisions at GSD? This wait is a killer.
  11. Hi guys, I'm new to this thread. All this information is great for the application process. I wanted to know if anyone knew how competitive the Mdess ( masters in design studies) at harvard gsd is, specifically in real estate. I am applying from undergrad, although I have been working full time for two years in real estate acquisitions while attending school. I have a 3.8 in economics but a low gmat, 610. People are saying for gsd scores rarely matter and its more about the work experience. I was wondering if anyone has any experience applying to this program and if being young, albeit having experience would hold me back. Thanks
