SweetTea08 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I am just wondering if anyone else has worried about the possibility that all the Open House/ Accepted Student Day visits for your top choices will all fall on the same weekend? Not saying I will get into any or all of these schools, but I already know that the Ford School's Spring Preview is April 9-10 and the Harris School will hold Open House on April 9-10 as well. Based on last year's postings, the Kennedy School preview might also fall on that weekend. Luckily, the Maxwell School has a couple of different ones to choose from. Just wondering if anyone had similar worries. Only a few more weeks until March 15.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornell07 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Yep. It can happen, as I well remember. Be prepared for some frantic drives up and down the east coast -- or around DC, as the case may be -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilesg57 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Don't know about the other programs, but Duke's is March 25th-26th. I don't know if any others are also scheduled for that weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBrodsky Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I'm a bit nervous that being abroad, I won't make any of the open houses. I know it's early, but perhaps some of those who do make it to the open houses would be willing to share thoughts and impressions on this thread? I'd be grateful for any input. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilesg57 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I was also abroad last year working in China and couldn't make any open houses. Luckily several people posted their impressions on here and were available for questions. I thank those people - they were a great help. Also, as we get more and more wired in the world I have to believe that more and more programs will be webcasting their open houses. I know we at Sanford are; I'm in charge of tracking down equipment in the next three weeks For comparison, Sanford only posted choice after-the-fact videos last year of a couple panels, and they didn't even run very well. This year much of it will be televised live on Ustream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
