Hi all, I also applied to ETH and got accepted, but my programme is Computational Biology though.
I definitely want to go there in September but it would be difficult without a scholarship. Though I applied for ESOP, it is extremely competitive so I do not expect to get it.
Anyone knows other sources of funding after starting the programme? The website says that it is possible to do an assistantship for 600 CHF/month but I want to know how likely to get it. Somebody also said that the scholarship can be awarded after the first year, but how much?
Can I survive for two years if I have only 10000 CHF with me at the beginning of the programme then find other sources of funding later? Would it be too risky?
