I'd be curious to know if this differs for research coordinators/post-bac RAs! Would a post-bac RA applying to be a graduate student in the same lab (not at the same university as their undergrad) have an advantage over other applicants, or would PIs also encourage them to go elsewhere?
Potentially really dumb question - but when grad students provide housing, does this mean we'll be sleeping on their couch or something? Should we bring extra blankets or pillows just in case?
To anyone who has heard from FSU or U of Louisville - if you could PM me your POIs or research interests, that would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance
