Hi Everyone,
As the interview trail is winding down, I'm starting to make a rank list in my mind. I kind of knew what my #1 was from the beginning and this was validated when I went to the interview. This place not only has a great reputation, but it will also afford me with really awesome opportunities to get involved with cool projects. However, one of the main reasons why I feel very strongly about this program is because it's in the city where my family lives. I moved away from home for graduate school and am yearning to go back. I guess my question is, is it okay to tell your #1 program that in addition to X,Y,Z, one of the reasons why they are your top choice is because they are located in a region that is highly desirable for you due to family reasons? Thank you in advance.
