Thread: Urgent Profile Evaluation

There?? Anybody???

Arizona State University - Safe

Indiana University - Moderate

Texas A&M, College Station - Moderate [As far as i remember it requires 1300+ GRE]

University of Southern California - Tough [Chances are there because of your exp but it requires 70+ acads]

Stony Brook University, SUNY - Moderate

University at Buffalo, SUNY - Moderate [requires 70+ acads but your exp can replace that i think not sure about it]

University of Florida - Rejection [University is very selective about MS in CS]

North Carolina State University - Rejection [University is very selective about MS in CS]

My advice would be to try for some state universities as their fees are low, financial aid chances are high and a great academic background.

Ohio State University

Michigan State University

University of California System (preferable Santa Cruz / San Diego / Davis / Irvine)

All the Best for your future!

Thanks Sherzil!
@Kruthartha: I've already applied to the univs which I mentioned. I need to check for the ones which Sherzil suggested. Thanks anyway!

Hi,
I got an admit from Indiana University yesterday. They're offering me the financial aid just $1500/year. I have not got any other offer yet. Should I wait for the decisions from other universitites (the deadline for Indiana's offer is 15th April) or should I accept this offer? Also even if I accept this offer I can accept another more impressive offer right?(Provided I should inform Indiana regarding denial)

Please guide me on this front.

Thanks!

Congratulations on your admission in Indiana University. Have you received the i20 or just a confirmation mail from the university? Have you applied to the universities that i suggested?? If yes, i would suggest you to wait for responses from them as their are chances that you might get better aid options.

Thanks Sherzil! I got the confirmation email from the univ, no I-20 yet. I checked for Ohio, Michigan and other state universities suggested by you but unfortunately their deadlines with financial aid have been crossed. So, I didn't apply to them as I wouldn't have received the aid even if I would have applied.

Hi again, I had applied to University of Washington, Bothell Campus (sorry i forgot to mention that in the list above). I got an admit for MS in Computing and Software Systems there. Can you please tell me how UWB is compared to Indiana University, Bloomington considering the job prospects after completing MS. I'm more concerned about the internship and placements after completing MS as IU I assume is better for the research/ PhD. Please guide.

Please reply..
