anuishp Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Hey Guys I have been accepted at Stanford and Georgia Tech for an MS in Electrical Engineering. Here are the relevant details: 1) Georgia Tech- Full Scholarship 2) Stanford- No funding, but family is willing to fund Which one should I pick? I have less than 48 hours to decide!
Usmivka Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 It's great that your family would pay for you, but if you aren't being paid it seems like you could do better things with your time. If there is no funding then why not work and earn money while boosting your resume? GT clearly is willing to invest in your academic success, which bodes better for program completion and job placement after your degree. Also, Palo Alto is a more expensive place to live than Atlanta-- this will cost your family more than just tuition.
