vegan_bacon Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Has anybody received an acceptance from Georgia Tech (Analytics)? I've seen a waitlist and a couple rejections posted on gradcafe and reddit... Their admissions dashboard seems to confirm that 27 people have been admitted.

Well if that's the case, and considering I haven't heard anything from then, it appears I'm shit out of luck. That being said, I'm wishing you the best KMickey!

Thanks so much and good luck for your applications! Hey, sorry but I'm actually not too sure. I believe it should be with the organizer/ the one who sent you the confirmation email. Also good luck on your interview. I talked to past students and they said it's not formal. Just mainly talking about soft skills. Good luck!

diplodocus_ Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) Hi all, contemplating on my decision right now and would love to hear some thoughts from others in the same boat. I'm leaning towards Stanford out of my top 3 admits. What do people think of Stanford's program vs Columbia or MIT MBAn? Rejected Harvard MS in Data Science Yale MS in Data Science UC Berkeley MA in Statistics Admitted 1. Stanford MS in Stats: Data Science 2. Columbia Engineering MS in Data Science 3. MIT Masters in Business Analytics 4. NYU MS in Data Science 5. Carnegie Mellon MS in Statistical Practice Waiting to Hear Back UCLA MS in Statistics - has anybody received a rejection or admit??

Nothing heard yet either from UCLA. But if I were you I would choose Stanford without a second thought. They are ranked 1 for a reason.

lavafish Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) @diplodocus_ I have some similar admits! Also got into Stanford/MIT/Columbia, and rejected from Harvard (lol). My impression is that Stanford's program is the most selective and probably the best for Silicon Valley tech. Personally, I'm also heavily considering MIT's MBAn because I prefer the east coast. I think the MBAn has a couple of other nice features that stand out, such as the 1) tight-knit cohort/sense of community and 2) great professional support. MIT's program also seems more applied than Stanford's program, if you have any preference on how theoretical v. applied the curriculum is. Another difference between these two schools that stands out is the length-- I do like that Stanford's program is a couple quarters longer and accommodates a summer internship. Columbia is a great school for undergrad, but I have the impression that its Master's programs have very large cohorts, so there doesn't seem to be the same sense of community at the grad level. I also heard from a Columbia alum that the DSI classes are mostly night classes to help accommodate part-time students, if that affects your decision at all. On the other hand, if you want to be in NYC and develop a network there, Columbia should be fantastic for that. Curious to hear your thoughts on Stanford/MIT/Columbia as well!
