At least I am not the only one struggling with this issue. I reached out to as many people as I could to the University that I am waiting for a fellowship for, hopefully, I can get somewhere!
I have been accepted to my number one school of choice for a MS but it is currently not funded but I am waiting to see if I have a GEM fellowship. I have also been accepted to another school for a fully funded Ph.D. in which I need to make a decision by April 15, 2018. I am currently put in a difficult position with the uncertainty of knowing whether or not I have any of the GEM fellowships. Any recommendations as to what I should do?
That's all I hear, it would be nice if the employers would choose their students already. I would really like to know which or if any university is going to offer me a fellowship.
Did that university originally offer you full funding?
On the GEM website that there is a column for offers next to the "Applicant Self Report Status" column. If the university is willing to fund us, will that offer only show up there?
Does anyone know how the University funded GEM fellowships work? If we don't get an Employer, is it up to the university whether to offer a University / Associate Fellowship or not?
