I never did hear anything back from Rutgers, no.

Yeah, I informally accepted by email and need to send in the hard copy. The faculty is so amazing... I am so excited!

Just wanted to squee about being accepted to Stony Brook.

I did a post-bac/5th year in BCS and Linguistics. I just got accepted to a Ph.D. program, and I only had 4 Linguistics classes(and 3 BCS classes, some were cross listed.) So, it can be done. Maybe it was some other aspect of your application that needs improvement other than course work?

Been waitlisted there! Did they say how many people they are trying for in the cohort? --- Anyone else visiting Stony Brook this weekend?

I'll check it out!

Thanks! Great ideas, everyone.

What's a good part-time job for graduate students if your stipend just doesn't cut the mustard? What sort of jobs are you all working? In general, is it easy to find a job on campus? How do you balance an off campus job with graduate life requirements like meetings and classes? Thanks for any info you can share!

I ask this not because it will influence my decision(as it's my top choice) but I would like to make a financial plan as soon as possible. Rent seems insanely expensive if you want to not have a roommate, and I'd like to start shopping. Any info you can provide would be amazing.
