  1. Got offer from IU too (funded PhD program in Biological Sciences). Also have an offer from University of Kansas - Lawrence. Kind of confused where to go. Any suggestions?
  2. Thanks again for your detailed response #svent. Overall enrollment of IU is 45k vs 26k. I am exploring the research facilities in both departments. I do like both campuses and I just don't want to make a wrong decision as I have to spend 5-6 years.
  3. I would like to know if you have visited IU before? I mean IU could also offer a personalized experience. I don't know.
  4. Svent, thanks for your response. I would like to know a bit more about your experience visiting IU. Did you like the campus?
  5. The choice seems to be clear to many since according to US News Rankings Indiana University Bloomington, IU ranks #34 while University of Kansas, KU ranks #68 but I think these rankings can be deceptive. I am pursuing Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology degree and would like to know which school is better for me. I have got funding from both schools as a doctoral student. I like the moderate size of KU while IU is extremely large campus (25000 vs 45000). Here are some doubts I have, Since IU is such a big school, so many places will be crowded and I am not a fan of crowded places. KU has a modern campus in comparison with IU which is really old. Where would I get more attention from faculty and staff IU or KU? Living expenses? Since I am getting a bit less stipend in IU than KU? Your help will extremely be appreciated! p.s. I am an international student, and I hope to live off-campus in a rented apartment.
