(It may be hearsay but I thought they were going to end it in the next few years). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabesDoItBetter Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Yes! I am unsure if they are ending it though, its something to keep in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BabesDoItBetter Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 So what is everyone's top choice for a program, and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy0124 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Im currently attending TU, so if anyone is applying there PM me and I can give you more information! My top choices are TAMU and Penn State- I am really interested in the work of professors there, they seem like places I could see myself living, and are good schools all around.

Left Skew Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I'm a bit torn; all the POIs I emailed were welcoming. George Mason and NC State impress me on paper, but we will see. It's funny how much of a numbers game it becomes. The I/O programs have far lower odds than the other programs I'm applying to. Best of luck to everyone!

P122312312 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Hi! I am currently in the process of applying to masters programs in I/O I was wondering if anyone knows how competitive the masters programs in NYC are to get into? (Mainly Columbia and Baruch) Does anyone know anything about the Baruch program specifically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Skew Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 The NC State candidate must've really impressed someone given that the app deadline was the 1st of Dec and they got an acceptance email on the 13th. My POI told me to email him in early January (when he starts to look at applications). This makes me nervous... Imposter_Me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkybob Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I received an email from Tulsa saying I made it pass the initial cut. 21 out of the 38 applicants passed the initial hurdle. So finally some fringe good news! Daisy0124 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to message him anyway because he may be getting 2 students. Regardless, really nice person and they deserve it.

I am still waiting for one of my professor to send a recommendation for a school that had it's deadline on December 1st... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
