How good is Brandeis University for Condensed matter and for High-energy theory? Has anyone here attended their open house/ been a graduate student there? What is your opinion about their physics department?

You really gotta rephrase this "are they good" question hahaha
They have one super popular HEP-th prof that does cool work, and they are hiring one of these people in the near future http://particle.physics.ucdavis.edu/rumor/doku.php
Have you gotten in for HEP-th?
Their open house last year was great. The students in the dept. seems super happy to be there.
One of the HEP-th students was also super friendly, smart, easy-going.

The last thing I heard from them was an invitation to open house. I am interested in CMT and in hep-th. I was not able to attend the open house as I am an international student.

I am interested to know when should I expect a decision. Did anyone here ask them, e.g. during this year's open house?
