Thanks to your and RobinL's encouragement, I called the admissions office just now. You were both right - they're all so sweet and helpful! Looks like I'll have to wait a bit longer for some clarity on my situation. But that's alright because I now know for how long at least! About the Atlantis dual degree - I came across the programme completely by accident while I was filling out my application to Hertie School of Governance in Berlin. I find that this link here - https://www.maxwell.syr.edu/paia/degrees/Atlantis_Program/ - explains it a lot better than I ever could!

Thank you so much for your quick response! My application process was quite different because I applied through Hertie School of Governance which is a partner school for the Atlantis dual degree programme. So I didn't come across anything about graduate assistantships in my application. I should really get in touch with admissions office about this. Once again, thanks a lot for your inputs - you've been very helpful!

Hi Robin, Congratulations on your acceptance and scholarship! I got into Maxwell through the Atlantis dual degree programme and I'm really inclined towards taking it up as well. I got a 35% scholarship and a small grant to cover other expenses, but it's not nearly enough. In my acceptance email, they said that I am eligible to apply for graduate assistantships but I did not realise that the applications can be made before the programme commences. Do you mind sharing some information about how one can go about applying for an assistantship? Thank you!
