  1. I was in the same boat a few months back when searching for funded masters programs in Applied Math, Comp. Bio, and just general MS/MA in mathematics. Here are some programs that I know offer funding (both full w/ GTA and partial w/o GTA) Univ. of Minnesota, Deluth Wake Forest University University of Vermont Colorado State University While the latter two programs also award PhD's, the first two do not. It seems to me that it is much more likely to get master's funding from an institution that awards an MS/MA as their highest degree.
  2. As I'm currently awaiting decisions from math grad programs (both MS/MA and PhD), I'm wondering if settling for a masters program is worth it in the case of a non-terminal degree. I see a few options if rejected from doctoral programs: 1: settle for a masters, work for a few years, return for doctoral study after some work experience. 2: settle for a masters, apply to doctoral programs upon graduation, hope credits transfer. 3: wait until next season, strengthen my resume, hope to be admitted to a doctoral program next year. Simply, my UG GPA isn't fantastic, CV and extracurriculars are above average. If rejected from doctoral programs, the goal is to strengthen my CV through a masters program, hopefully jumping to the next tier of doctoral programs. So the question remains, which option to choose if it comes down to it? Any thoughts are appreciated.
