Shortlisting Universities – 1
By HSB
Its really difficult decision to make when you have admission from more than one U.S. University. Without much exposure about place, locations where each school is completely different and unique with respect to profile/rank/location.
Selecting among 5 Universities
I still remember how hard it was for me to decide between 5 admits. I had applied for 5 schools and admission kept coming. After I got first admit, I started mailing students(seniors) to find out what kind of place/cost of living ( I know we don’t think about cost of living while applying for schools), part time jobs/ tuition waiver/ RA/TA/ apartments/ roommates/.
Between that, I got admission for another school. So, I had to decide between those schools and so does the contact list increased. Finally, after I got 5 admits, it was difficult few days to decide on the schools. I created a list of details I collected from different people and made a good decision to attend a school in Texas. Let talk about that experience little later.
Studying Master’s gave exposure to what I should have done while applying for universities and how to short schools. Lets talk about U.S. Universities in part 2. Hang on!

ME STUDYING IN MBBS AND I HAVE GRE SCORE OF 1060…
AND I WANT TO TAKE ADMISSION IN MPH COURSE…..CAN TELL ME WHICH UNIVERSITIES APPLICABLE TO ME…
@Kavitha : 1170 is enough to get into good school. I wouldn’t concentrate much about major, instead I would go for M.S. in Computer Science. If you look for schools specific to Info Security, it will be hard to find schools.
my Percentage in B.E(CS) from anna university is 79%
GRE—–1170(Q—-760;V—–410)
TOEFL(IBT)—–111.Kindly intimate the universities i will get into.I want to do M.S in network security

I have an admit from NJIT(MSIS), Syracuse(MSIM) & UMR (MSIST)..No
aid .. I am really confused If I shuld go ahd

people about the university’s reputation.
Since you’ve been there, I would request a honest
Feedback from your end as It will influence the most
Important decesion of my Life with which I cannot
afford to act careless. I would be taking a Bank loan
for My further studies so it makes the decesion all

I would like to know about the the placements(after
MS-IST), internships,faculty, students, and on campus job
prospects(is it possible to shell out our own
expenditures)..
I would be highly obliged if you can help me with
