    Is grad school a wise move? If so, for what??

    1. MidwesternAloha

      MidwesternAloha

      Depends on the career you're seeking, the benefit of the education you'd obtain and the cost (time and money) to complete it.

    Where can I buy a backpack? Haven't needed to buy one in over ten years. Decent brands/suggestions?

      Thank you all! I'll check out those bags and the thread.

    Real job senioritis? I should just leave now and take the rest of the week. Maybe next week I'll be productive.

    Would you rather be in a concentrated environment (your program is the only offered) or an interdisciplinary research environment?

    1. MidwesternAloha

      MidwesternAloha

      In this case, I think the interdisciplinary program will be more broadly applicable. Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.

      Good perspective! That's basically how my field is. I'm stuck choosing between the two.

    Is it normal to have a $400 fee for a PhD program?

    1. MidwesternAloha

      MidwesternAloha

      Yeah! If it was applied to my account somehow, I'd happily pay it. But since my tuition is free, I'm gonna see if there's a waiver.

      One time fee that doesn't count toward anything.

    Is it worth emailing an admissions dept at all this week? I'm assuming they won't be issuing acceptances with 2 days' notice.

    1. MidwesternAloha

      MidwesternAloha

      I last heard from them when I inquired March 24, so I guess I'll hold tight. No news is goods news, at least I haven't been rejected yet.

    I am worried that my choice of a destination may prove questionable to the people I leave behind at home, even though the program I will attend is still a respectable one for my field
