I've posted this already in the Decisions section, no responses yet. Thought I'll post it here too.
Can anyone please shed some light on the sustainability program at ASU? I happen to be considering it seriously and it would be of great help if someone can tell me anything about the school. Is it any good? I've heard some good reviews about the program, but since there is hardly any discussion here on the boards about this school, it is making me quite skeptical and I am freaking out!
This is the only school I got an admit from and I really like the work of the POI here. His research closely matches with my interests and I have been in an elaborate interaction with him over emails ( by the way, I am an international student with a masters in environmental studies). But again, since the brand of the school also matters to a certain extent, am not particularly sure if its the right choice (especially after reading a very negative post about ASU in general on one of the boards here).
Also, the instituion is offering me a teaching assistantship and the professor doesnt have any RA openings available. And i am afraid that the TA duties along with 3 courses and my own research work would make it extremly extremely tough. I am not sure if i am over thinking all of this, but i am freaking out a lot!! So, please help!!
I am very sorry for the long post. Also, English is not my first language, so please excuse any errors. Thanks!
