Summary of Application Experience
Very interesting process, should've done more MSAR research beforehand in picking my schools, I'd definitely recommend that to anyone applying. Know the in-state/OOS ratios, curriculum innovations, schools students usually went to for undergrad that get in, that type of thing. Still, I took a very relaxed approach, which was nice, most of my friends applying with me were constantly stressed, I kinda set everything in motion and just let it happen without thinking too much about it. I'm super happy with Columbia P&S, so things worked out well.
