| Columbia University, UCLA, UT Austin | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 31 Mar 2021 | 31 Mar 2021 | (I'm the original poster of the post below asking for advice about Columbia vs UCLA vs UT Austin. I also forgot to mention that I was also accepted to the MCS program at UIUC, which is a professionally oriented program (the cost is on par with the UT Austin cost). I wanted to add that to the list of schools I am deciding between to see if anyone thinks that this is a better option than the 3 other schools mentioned. Also, TTPB, thanks so much for your input! If anyone else has inputs on any of these 4 schools, please let me know! I sincerely appreciate it :) | |
| Columbia University, UCLA, UT Austin | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Wait listed via Other on 31 Mar 2021 | A | 31 Mar 2021 | *NOT Waitlisted* TTBP: Congurlations on your admits! If I were you, I would remove UCLA from my list as they focus on the research, and you said you do not need it. Between UT Austin and Columbia, well, I know that they both have great programs, but it seems Columbia is the better fit for you because of your goals. However, personally, I don't think that worth the cost difference as NYC itself is a more expensive city compared to Austin. If you do not mind the 60k difference, Columbia seems a better fit; otherwise, I recommend choosing UT Austin. Wherever you choose, I wish you success and don't forget to decline the other offers as soon as you made your mind as it might help others get in. |
| Columbia University, UCLA, UT Austin | Computer Science, Masters (F21) | Accepted via E-mail on 31 Mar 2021 | 31 Mar 2021 | Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well! I have been accepted to the CS MS programs at Columbia, UCLA, and UT Austin, and I'm having trouble finding any extremely concrete advantages/disadvantages that some of these schools have in relation to each other so that I can have tangible reasons for filtering some of the schools out and coming to a decision. I was wondering if anyone might have any insights, from personal experiences or from friends, about any of these schools that you would be willing to share. Columbia and UT Austin have coursework only options (without research), whereas at UCLA you're required to do a thesis/project, and since I am not planning on getting a PHD and I don't enjoy research very much, coursework only options appeal to me more. Cost is definitely one factor (Columbia comes out to be around $57,000 more expensive than UT Austin, and about $45,000 more than UCLA), but I don't want to base my decision solely, or extremely heavily on cost, as Columbia has some advantages the other schools do not (located in NYC, near Wall Street, as I am potentially interested in going into the fintech/financial industry after getting my Master's degree). Thanks so very much! :) | |
