I was just accepted into a M.S. for marine biology program with a TAship in southern maine... Problem is my boyfriend is currently living and working in Massachusetts. Our relationship is very serious, he graduated a year before me and moved half way across the country to live in MA with the plan to move in together once I graduate. I know commuting into school (1:20 one way) would be a lot to handle, and I know that I would be really devastated to not take our relationship to the next level.. But at the same time I know turning down an opportunity like this isn't exactly ideal either. I am willing to commute but im not sure how I could handle the commitment. Waiting to hear back from two other schools but just looking for people's thoughts if I don't get in anywhere else and this is my only option. Stupid to reject it and take a year off and reapply?
