These may be silly questions but I am unfamiliar with this process. I applied to two masters programs, one in TN and one in NC. The one is TN is my top pick but only by a little. I just got an acceptance from the school in NC with a generous funding offer. I don't expect to hear anything from TN for another month. So my questions are:
If I wait to hear back from TN, could that effect what NC offered me? As in, if I wait a month will I lose my funding offer?
Since I got my acceptance offer earlier this week I have been emailed twice with an invitation to a graduate student showcase and prospective student dinner. Should I attend these events if I haven't accepted yet?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
