<p>I know Stanford is fairly easy to get into for a terminal MS student which is what i desire to be. I have heard contradictory remarks about Stanford Grad Engineering being really laid back and curved nicely as well as being very hard and harhsly graded. I am planning to apply to UIUC, Purdue, Michigan and Stanford for an MS in Aero/Astro. Can anyone comment on the difficulty of grad engineering (MS only) at Stanford relative to these schools as well as on a whole. Thanks</p>
<p>Well, grad programs typically have grade inflation with respect to undergrad programs. I don’t know about the other schools, but I feel that Stanford Grad Engineering is challenging but worthwhile, based on my experience.</p>
