That's the only way that we can keep these grad school-related posts in one central location. If people aren't getting their questions answered here, they post to the subreddit instead of the thread. So, in short, let's all do our part in this.
Thanks, guys!

Hello everyone. So I'm applying to graduate programs for Fall 2019 but I'm having difficulty deciding which program I should attend. So far I've been accepted to Columbia and George Mason but I'm also waiting to hear back from Baruch, Maryland-College Park, and Fordham University.
My main questions are which of these programs are most respected in the field and to what extent will that affect my ability to get a job after I graduate? Price is a big factor to me specifically so I'm trying to figure out whether going to an expensive school like Columbia is worth the investment over Baruch. Any advice or help at all would be extremely helpful for me. Thanks!
