  1. UNC did so badly on this year's admission Congratulations on all your offers
  2. I am going through similar situation, and I do not know what to do Maybe these openings are just for people who do not have any offer on April 15 If we accept those offer, it means that we are actually taking away offers from those who have nothing on hand
  3. Thank you for your information. What about GRA position?
  4. But I need to make a decision on April 15th. It does not seem to be likely that I will find one on Monday
  5. Thank you for your suggestions. I like the advice on "contacting current students". Thanks for the above threads as well.For me,the diversity of students is minor con. What is more important to me is that PHD in first school really shows a brighter future with all those potential employers and research interests. I would think myself stupid if I go to a PHD without funding. On other hand, I would think not having funding now does not mean not having funding in the future. It may be need some effort, but It's not unlikely. Why should I give up such a good school becuase I do not give enough effort to find funding?
  6. No offense. I am an Asican as well. I just think that a program with students coming from different area would be fun and more productive.
  7. Hello, guys. I have two schools to choose from and both have some pros and cons. (PHD program) Actually, I have not decide whether to go to the academia or industry after finish my PHD. Kind want to try both. so now It is too hard for me to make a decision. Hope you can help me out. School A high reputation good location (good place to live and study, plus have potential industrial employers nearby) good number of professors (have several professor I get interested in) quite flexible/interdisplinary But no funding garauntee ( it looks like it is possible to find some funding at the end, but really need to take some time and energy after arrive the school) School B reputation ok good location(good place to live and study, plus have quite a lot of research jobs) funding garauntee for the first year, looks quite promising for the following years quite a portion of new professors working on exciting topics, have decent background But students are almost all asican ( to me, it is not a good thing) and looks like quite competitve between students low faculty-student ratio, faculty does not seems to have much time to spend on students Thank you!
