刚才刷邮箱，发现被CMU的MSPE（privacy engineering）项目录取了。开心的同时又挡不住的纠结。。。
1. 这个项目是个一年的项目，项目介绍请戳：MSPE项目介绍
太长了我就不贴过来了，烦请各位前辈和同期戳一下~
2. 收到的pdf里面告诉我：
  As a condition of this offer, you are required to attend the ACC Extensive Summer Program
that begins July 1, 2014.  This program is sponsored by the Intercultural Communication
center and helps non- native English speakers be successful while at Carnegie Mellon
University.
应该就是语言班了？这个ACC program的网址在这里：ACCprogram 请戳
里面有详细的cost以及时间。总之是要付tuition 自己找地方住以及买书的。tuition是2600刀。
3. 这个项目官网上写的是one-year program，但是发给我的PDF里面有这么一段：
  Tuition and other costs:
The MSIT Privacy Engineering program is part of the CMU School of Computer Science.  The
program tuition rates are matched each year to rates of the School of Computer Science.  Tuition
rates are stated as a Fall/Spring per semester tuition, plus additional summer semester tuition  (s ee
the attached tuition summary for an estimate for the current year ). Estimated tuition for the
2014-15  academic year, is  $61,500  plus fees for the entire three-semester program.  Students are
also expected to provide their own laptop computers.
所以到底是三学期还是一年？
PS：给了个安慰奖with a scholarship award of  $1,500 (US)
PPS：关于financial aid，给的说明是：As a matter of  policy, the School of Computer Science does not provide direct financial assistance for students attending its professional masters programs. 但是后面表示一年课程比较紧不支持国际学生去当TA（Teaching Assistants）

然后，另一所学校，JHU，被他们的MSSI（security informatics）项目录了
1. 我原本以为总的类还是CS，但是似乎不是的=皿=！看介绍是交叉学科，网址在这里：
mssi项目介绍请戳
这个专业是在information security institue下面的。但是他们的课程我觉得有点奇怪，policy也就罢了，但是还有health的。贴上来好长啊，麻烦戳一下：
MSSI的课程介绍
如果不想戳请留言。。我好贴上来……
PS：根据网站介绍，他们提供双学位，这个还不知道是进去以后申请还是直接申。
2. JHU一分钱也没给，当初申请的时候填表就没有这一项。然后我去官网看，国际学生能有的也就一个，如下：

Information Security Institute Fellowship (ISIF)
(for all students)

To attract the brightest minds in cybersecurity, JHUISI has established the Information Security Institute Fellowship (ISIF). This prestigious scholarship is awarded as follows:

ISIF is merit-based and carries an award amount of $20,000, $12,000, or $8,000 to selected MSSI applicants with outstanding academic credentials;
The first half of this fellowship, upon your accepting the admission and enrolling into MSSI with full-time status, is to be used in the first semester toward your tuition;
The second half is to be applied in the second semester, provided that you maintain good academic performance including an average grade of B or above in coursework and continuous full-time status;
ISIF can only be used if you do not receive other scholarships that provide a full tuition waiver and/or stipend, including but not limited to the IASP or SFS scholarship.
To ensure full consideration of ISIF please submit your admission application by the application deadline. There is no separate application required for ISIF at this time.
不知道这是几个意思？是头一学期都有？以后自己申？
3. JHU所在地，巴尔的摩，据说治安非常之差。

PS： CMU计算机专排太吸引人，可是JHU综排同样很诱惑……

目前就这些，不知道各位前辈或者同期有何看法QAQ
总觉得不能再纠结……
