Thumbs up In @ CMU INI with aid

Hello frens

I got into CMU INI for MS IN and MS ISTM with $20K aid...though it might sound great but the problem is it is still too expensive...

I would like people to comment on whether such exorbitant expenses are justified...

Thanks in anticipation....

expenses are justified if you just want to earn dollars

Hey guys,

Even I have the same admit with the same tuition waiver [20k] for MS in ini.

Along with that I also have admits from University of Pennsylvania,Johns Hopkins,Stony Brook, Usc, Ncsu,Iowa state among others

See this 20k waiver is given almost to everyone admitted, and its like a discount but still the overall expenses are huge, and this money is used to pay for the stipends of phd students which do the real research work at cmu

We pay money but surely get a high paying job [ but you may need to compromise on work quality, since you have to generally take loan to repay such huge stuff, you end up 1-2 yrs after masters in repaying the loan ]

So finally its your call, Even I need to decide...

All da best

Cheers
Sagar
