emco Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 The primer can be either online or in person. I'm doing it either way and in person, try to settle in and meet some people before we have to hit the ground running. I'm hoping we get the test soon... or more importantly on the forum. Kind of nervous that I'm moving down in less than 2 months and don't know where I'm living
thoreau-away Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Yes their job placement is definitely good. At a glance it looks like most people end up in NC and surrounding east coast states like i thought. That is great that they expose students to some other technologies. I'd still argue that when you graduate from a program that is sponsored by SAS and pushes SAS certifications for its students, it's kind of the direction you are geared for. Not that it is a bad thing in any way shape or form.. Just also something to consider Fair points. I think the companies that come to NC State's campus to recruit are generally going to be companies located in the Eastern time zone, but the program is respected enough that down the line I wouldn't rule out being able to interview with Google or other west coast firms.
emco Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Yeah I had looked into those, unfortunately all lease holders must be 22 years old, which I am not :/ Edited March 27, 2014 by emco
emco Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 Yup! Got my invitation, probably going to post soon looking for roommates.
kkkkkh37 Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Great insight on here... I'm also deciding between NC State, Texas, and LSU. I'm in Texas, and would like to end up in Texas, as well as it seems Texas tends to be givingt more money in order to make it more enticing. I talked to a current UT student this week, and I know they have a heavy focus on R, but are exposed to SAS and some other tools as well. They seem like they've been very reactive to student suggestions, as she said that there were a LOT of industry events and networking opportunities through McComb and the program specifically. However, LSU (easier move) and NC state (hardest move) are more established, so there's a heavy pull there... Tough choices to make in the next couple of weeks.
SASPRO Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) Has anyone applied for the fall 2015 semester yet? I'm in the pipeline @ just over 3 weeks. Looking for an interview request soon! Edited December 23, 2014 by Orionsic
row-away Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 2015 here! Applied mid-December right before holidays so not worried yet. Looking at last year I think I'll wait at least a month before worrying, looks like plenty of interview requests went out early February.
analyticsguy Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Hello! I too had applied at the starting of December. Waiting eagerly for the interview call
analyticsguy Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Umm, I saw on the 'results search' page that a person has got an invite for an interview with NCSU- MSA. Is there anyone else too who has got an invite or has any update? Thanks! Edited January 18, 2015 by analyticsguy

SASPRO Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I'm officially on week 8 - no results yet. The campus shut down for two weeks over the holidays, so they are backed up in applications.
analyticsguy Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I got a mail from them stating that they are a little behind but are working to send out results asap...well all we can do is wait and keep our fingers crossed

mountainarrowhead Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I applied mid december and havent heard anything yet. Will post if I do hear something. Hopefully in another 2-3 weeks
mozart25 Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Interview was almost same at the first page. Why NCSU? What are you gonna do? Whats your name? There were 4~5 people. Professor on the call, phd student, director... And ask about basic two statistic questions, about regression part but i didnt well reply. Except for that, every question was about your things on resume. They were kind and no pressure at all. Just do your best! Edited February 7, 2015 by mozart25
