I'm interested in the MASIO program of the University of Zurich. I was wondering if any of you had been there and could tell me about the experience. Also, if you are applying, tell me your opinion. THanks in advanced.

I'm checking the website of the program, but I can't find the application form for the deadline (may 2008). I tried, also, to find information regarding application material. Does anyone know, besides cv, certificates, application form, which documents they require? Any information concerning the program or the university of Zurich will be highly appreciate.

Dear Grisselle,
I am sorry to say but the experience in thsi MASIO program is not good. If you get a full scholarship do it otherwise, is not worth it to pay 27K. You better spend that much money somewhere else.

I'm not familiar with MASIO myself, but I guess sisi's criticism may partly have its roots in the way European universities work.

In Europe (e.g. UK, France, Germany) universities don't really take students "by their hands", but rather expect expect them to take care of most things by themselves. Mostly publicly funded, they are not as much service oriented as (private) US schools ("Career center? What's that?").

Most European students are used to bad service and rotten budliings and don't mind that too much, as long as the level of teaching is good.

Of course, this also depends how much fees you pay. CHF 27500 for the MASIO is a lot of money and you should expect that the school really offers 100% premium quality in every aspect.

Anyway, it would really be helpful to know first-hand what other current students think about the program.
