thinkingabouit Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I have been reading this board for a long time. I am trying to decide between Texas and WashU for political science. My focus is in public law. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaraAnn85 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Did you visit and meet your potential advisors? If so, what did you think about them? Give us more information and we can help! I'm trying to decide too....its hard! By Texas do you mean UT Austin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts? any difference in fellowship packages? what about faculty you would most like to work with? that would probably be the deciding factor for me.

thinkingabouit Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 1. Yes, UT means Texas at Austin. 2. UT's aid is not as good as WashU 3. UT's weekend visit is next weekend--so I haven't met anyone yet. I've been to WashU and I like everyone there very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampersand Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Hold off on making any decisions until you visit UT. Once you have, you'll have a better feel for how each department runs. Who knows, you might like them just as much as WashU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingwalrus Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 WashU has the better placement record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
