What is the date you have to commit to enroll for Sinai? If it's later, might as well stay on your waitlists and see what happens

I believe its June 10, but I am just trying to do my part to ease waitlist movement for others as well... Definitely don't want to hold on to waitlist spots unnecessarily.

Yeah we do receive a stipend, but we still have COL concerns on what my partner and I could afford to rent (ie a 2b2b is much more affordable in New Haven than NYC or La Jolla)

Take a look at your pros and cons lol

It seems like Yale is the clear choice to me, based on your pros and cons

Congrats on the offer! Both great choices. If it aids in your decision-making process at all, Sinai offers subsidized single-person and couples housing in Aron Hall. Very cheap, $700/month for a room in a 4 bd/2bath apartment. I think an apt for a couple is ~$2,000/month but I'd double check with the program director or current students.

NYC safety is not really an issue in the region of Sinai.

Let's take a step back though, realistically you will do well at any of these programs. You may want to consider your partner's perspective a bit more in your decision making though, and not what randos on SDN think is the more or less prestigious program.
