have a lot of questions in mind....if u could help me out, then it would be gr8...i am extremely sorry if i am disturbing you..but i am in a complete dilema..
At UMICH, I have been admitted for a Phd Program and haven't heard as yet about the aid decision. The fees are 32K tution for 1 year and including living nd stuff goes upto 45K. The climate is damn bad for a student comin 4m India, as in the cold. Although a minor factor but just stating it.
CMU is another great plc but even more expensive. It has the name and job prospects similar to UMICH but i have been offered no aid and a MS degree only.
Now UCLA's tution is 22K/ year and it's in California. However, standard of living is high again. Been admitted for a Masters Degree with no aid though. Job propects are equally good i feel at all three places but the climate is the best according to me at UCLA ( Correct me if i'm wrong. )
Money is not a criteria for me nd I plan to do a job after graduation, maybe an MBA later on. Could you guys plz temme as to which uni I should select taking into account all the factors such as cost, climate, job prospects, possibility of assistanships etc.
Also consider the colls that i'm waiting to hear 4m.......All your suggestions are welcome and plz do correct me if i'm wrong in stating any point.
it would reallly gr8 if u guys cud help me in making a decision at this point...i am throughly confused...dunno whether i should take such a big plunge and get into any of these big colls and then repent my decision.....
thnx a lot ......Parag
