hammyc Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 Has anyone heard from Bren on funding yet? Do you think we'll expect something in the next two days? I'm on the verge of emailing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muellerm32 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Hey Guys - I am on the waitlist for Yale, I had applied mostly to Urban Planning Programs and have been accepted to many, but I kind of want to go up and check out Yale. Anyone else on the Yale waitlist? How are y'all feeling? Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the verge of emailing them. I'm still waiting on Bren funding. Funny because they just sent an email reminding us to RSVP for admitted students day, but they haven't sent us funding info.

Okay email professors and tell them it’s your top choice. I don’t think they have a ranking of their waitlist. So you could get bumped up. I met with Sean from admissions, but I’m not sure how the meeting went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammyc Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 @sara501 @hakunamatata1 I was poking around the UCSB Bren site and realized this: "If an applicant is selected for a Recruitment Fellowship, that person will be notified of this at the same time he or she is notified of admittance into the program." Does this mean that we did not receive funding at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it does suck. Now I have the difficult decision of UCSB Bren or Duke Nicholas. Cost of attendance is about the same for me. My heart tells me UCSB but my head tells me Duke. Where are you and everyone else going this fall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They offered me 34k per year and I have a 6k AmeriCorps award so it makes it pretty reasonable. Paying full tuition and cost of living in Santa Barbara kinda scared me away. I also received admission to UC Irvine, but also no funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gyj522 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Hi everyone! Congratulations on all the offers y'all got! I was accepted by both Yale's International and Development Economics program and Yale FES MEM (off waitlist) yesterday. I already committed to the Econ program, and I could do a joint degree for MA in economics and MA in environmental management for 2.5 years. Does anyone here have insights on the joint degree program? My career interest lies in the intersection of sustainable economic development/sustainable finance/energy investment. Anything is helpful! And to those who are attending FES this fall, I'm looking forward to meeting you at Yale soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
