Hello,
I got admission to one of the universities I applied to. But it said I have to wait before funding for me is permitted. Actually, it means I am on the waitlist regarding funding. I have thought that I just have to wait before the decision about my financial support is made. Because I will not be able to attend without funding, I think I should not accept the offer yet.
However, one of my American friends said I have to accept the offer in order to be funded. I think it is weird. But he is an applicant for a Ph.D. program and an American unlike me, so I have become worried about my situation.
Do I have to accept the offer in order to be funded?
