HTM18

Applied to same program C and I... update us... hope it went well

My advice apply to more internships to increase your chances.

My recommender misspelled my name in the letter it was sent. It does not hurt your chances. They will care more about content.

I hope it worked out. I would call and send email to check.

Unfortunately, UK PhDs are not widely recognized.. institutions prefer someone with a US PhD. I would pick one of the funded US schools you were accepted in.

I am an international student as well. Visa process does not take that long. I did mine in June-July and attended orientation in August. I advise you to hear back from all universities before making a decision.

I googled and found the thread.

Hello everyone, So far, it has been a stressful month for all of us with waiting, receiving acceptances or rejections and making life-changing decisions. As a current BA or MA student moving forward to another degree MA or PhD in FALL 2018, where will you store your stuff? I heard about summer storage before but not sure which companies are reliable or offer good deals. I will be moving from Center City, Philadelphia, PA to State College, PA to study at Penn State. Another option for me would be to personally store my boxes at U-Haul in Penn State since it is 4 hours away by car to avoid shipping damages. I would like to hear based on your previous or personal experiences. If you could recommend some companies you have personally tried other than the ads google provides. I hope this thread will benefit any students considering moving but stresses about storage issues. Thank you all!
