  1. Hi All, I accepted PhD (via e-mail, no signed documents submitted yet) offer from FSU on 14th April as it was the best choice then. On 15th April (Evening of 14th April in Purdue), I got an acceptance in PhD program for which I was waitlisted. I want to joing Purdue University. Can anyone tell me how difficult this wud be? Is it a common situation or a rare one? - Since I have emailed FSU regarding my acceptance, do i still need to inform Purdue before accepting the offer. Or accept the Purdue offer without informing them anything about FSU? - If email acceptance is as good as a signed accpetance - What process do i need to follow? (Have seen discussions regarding a written release from the accepted univ. etc.) - If this is the case then how difficult is to get a release and how long does it take? - Can FSU also refuse to release me - What can be other consequences? Anyone here who has also faced the same situation. I plan to call Purdue today..so pls give your suggestion asap Thanks
  2. thx firecolon - Can you pls gimme some more insight on the PhD program in Fin Math at FSU? I did some research myself about FSU. Read that FSU Business School is one of the top rated programs in Risk Management? (My research interest also lies in Risk mangement and risk measures). Any more insights as well? Any help will be highly appreciated... Thanks B.
  3. Hi, I got an accept (TA position) from FSU (Florida State Univ.), PhD program in Financial Mathematics, and I am waitlisted for PhD Statistics(Purdue) and PhD OR(Cornell), but still no final word from them. So now I am in a dilemma whether to accept whats in hand or wait for Cornell and Purdue decision(where I would really want to go, even without funding). How should I act in such a situation a)Reply FSU a bit late b)Reply FSU saying that I am still waiting to hear from other schools but FSU is still under consideration. c)Accept FSU If anyone here can give me a good idea of the Mathematics Dep in FSU (it was my safe option) and Overall ranking/reputation of the univ. Any help is appreciated - thanks
