Tuck or Emory (full tuition waive)

BePowered

Got Emory full tuition waive, Tuck no scholarship. Wonder which one to choose?

Although already make some judgments, I need more information or I would say more confirmation, especially voices from those in the two schools, those once struggled in the same situation and all those who know something about the two schools.

The decision is critical for me and it would probably have great impact on my family. So really appreciate your voices!

BePowered, I asked Heather Stinson and she reverted financial aid information is coming out soon.  How do you know you don't have fellowship already?

I have asked about the scholarship right after I received the admission letter. The answer is that if you have not got scholarship information in your package, you are not granted money.

Tuck is a a better school than emory. Weather at hanover is horrible though, so are chinese restaurants in that area.

Pick Tuck unless you have a HUGE financial burden, or pick Tuck even with a HUGE financial burden.

hard decision. if you are staying in the States after graduation, I'd vote for TUCK. If coming back to China, emory can help you save a lot of money.

Thank you so much, eeyupyup and LuckyJ! I am just worried about the visa a little bit.

eeyupyup,收到，多谢！

另外，Tuck在美国人眼里到底是一个什么排名的学校呢？能不能排到仅次于H/S/W以后的第二类学校呢？各方面的信息来源都说Tuck非常好找工作，可是对于国际学生/中国学生/中国大陆学生也有那么明显的优势吗？

这两年超火，可能是wall street journal 把tuck 排在第一的缘故。

我去tuck走了一趟。dartmouth很大，但tuck还是很小一个学院。20分钟就走完了。但学生都很友好。好像找工作最近这几年还挺不错的。

最大的缺点，附近没有中国人餐馆，也没有中国人的超市什么的。所以吃饭是一个大问题。好不容易找到一个中国餐，开车15分钟。所以你最好学会开车，不然会不太方便。

我被顶了，希望你在tuck过得开心。还有论坛上有个TUCK的帖子，你也可以去参考参考
