    Yes, it's a situation you've got. But why don't you consider visiting Austin (since you are already in the US); talk to those professors one-on-one. Sometimes your physical presence may be more effective in getting a TA/RA than unsolicited emails. I'd recommend you do that asap before USC's deadline. I hope you realize USC (with LA) is very much expensive. I'd take it as the last option. Good luck.

    Why do you think your chances for full funding are slim? I think many departments are still making funding decisions. Did you get any form of funding from TAMU? Why not mail professors in TAMU for possible TA/RA (you could have an edge with a first degree in Pet Engr). BTW you did not disclose your gender.

    Howdy AkshayN, it's nice to meet you. I'm a male Nigerian and I'm most delighted that very soon, I will be an Aggie Petroleum Engineer.

    I have a bachelors in chemical engineering with no work experience in oil and gas. What about you, could you tell me more about yourself?

    So friend, have you decided where to go (if I may ask)? Just curious: TAMU or UT?

    Yea, I got a notification last week. It was a small fellowship. It will not cover my tuition even though it's gonna be at the in-state rate. I am trying to contact Profs. for possible TA/RA positions. I'm in love with PE-TAMU but money is the challenge now.

    Great! Lucky you. Is it full funding? If it is, then you have got a decision to make between two programmes many greatly covet. Congrats and wish you the best while I hope I get mine too soon.

    Whoa! That's great. I couldn't have imagined a new MS student in Petroleum Engineering could be fully funded. It doesn't get better for a PhD, I'd wager. You must be a top candidate. Congrats man. Hope I get something similar too very soon.

    Congrats on you admissions. In my opinion, UT and TAMU are the best places you can do some excellent research in Petroleum. You will also receive good exposure and mentorship. Those big companies do give preference to these schools for recruitment. However, UT seemingly is more tuned into research whereas TAMU better emphasizes the training of industry professionals. I've also been accepted into TAMU for the same program but no information from the department yet. Have you received any funding notification?
