Hi. I am looking for information about Masters programs in Artificial Intelligence. I would appreciate recommendations of schools to look into. I am particularly interested in schools located in the Northeastern United States. I am not sure of my specific area of interest, but so far have been drawn to machine learning, genetic algorithms and intelligent tutoring systems. I also have a few more specific questions which I hope some of you might be able to help me with: I am graduating in April '90, but plan to work for a year and start school in September `91. It is my impression that most schools do not allow deferrals for graduate studies, and that I should thus delay the application process until I am actually ready to attend. Is this a correct impression? I am attending the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. Is this school as unknown in the States as I fear it is? Will this hurt my chances of getting into the more competitive schools? I am an American citizen who has been living in Canada for the past 13 years. What resources are available for funding my graduate education, outside of the particular schools themselves? Also, is there any information out there to aid in studying for the Computer Science GRE other than the single test published by the ETS? Please respond by e-mail. I will summarize to the net. Thanks very much! Robyn Edelson
