[Assistantship as a non-degree exchange student]

Hello !

Is it possible to do a research assistantship while being a non-degree international exchange student, with a J-1 visa?

Thanks for your answer.

I don't think so.

On my CV I can honestly write that I attended the Master program, even if I do not have the Master (without being ambiguous of course).

I see another solution, which could be to do 20 credits during the 3rd semester; do you know if this is an acceptable workload?

Hello,

I'll be an exchange student next year (non-degree exchange graduate student) and I plan to reapply as a degree graduate student for Fall 2009. However, there seem to be a limit of 12 credit hours (1 semester) which can be transfered towards the degree program, which means that one of my semester would be lost. Do you know if this limit can be changed through a petition process or is it impossible to modify?

Cheers!

I wish they would do the same for me ......

Which university was it ?

In fact I don't know if it plays a role but I've not said that funding necessary for me to come : does this increase the chances to be admitted ?

Hi,

I still have no answer for a MSc in CS at UIUC and the deadline was March 15th. I've seen that all the answer given after the 15th were "rejected". Is this a law ? :/
