AmityDuPeuple Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Facing a bit of a tough decision. I love Brandeis (and am going to visit in a bit over a week). I would be living in Boston (maybe Waltham) and it is uber expensive. DePaul is in Chicago (which is closer to my friends and family) and may be a little less expensive to live there. I can't help but think, that Brandeis would still be the better pick because of the opportunities they afford their grad students and because of the name. A prof told me that if I get my MA from Brandeis it will go along way in getting me into my PhD program(s) of choice. Thoughts? Is DePaul as reputable as Brandeis?
have2thinkboutit Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I actually have no clue as to whether DePaul is as reputable or not. All I wanted to say is - I think you have already made your decision. You love Brandeis, you think it's a better fit and you say that it would really help you getting into the PhD program of your choice. So I'd say, go for it! Sounds like you'll be very happy there!
