    Help me decide! NYU or USC for sitcom writer (Columbia pending)

    @Matt Ramphele I vote full ride. But it all depends on your goal: go back to SA and continue climbing or make a name for yourself on international scene. Either way, full ride is always the key element for me, unless money isn't an issue for you. Edit: @the end of the day, your heart has...

    2016 Interviews- Acceptances- Rejections

    @marion06 hey! the admission letter doesn't give a deadline for the payment of the 500$. However, Admitted Graduate Student Day is on April 1, so I'm wondering if that would be some sort of deadline? Are we supposed to make a decision before April 1st? To others who received the admission...
