Similarly, I've been wondering what constitutes a good funding package for an MA, i'm on the verge of accepting an offer, but i'll be hovering at the poverty line in terms of the money they're giving me... BUT they're giving me money? is that good enough?

Aw, well Boston has its charms, but more so in the fall and spring than in March. I sort of figure Vancouver couldn't be worse than here... But I also will be on my own dime in Vancouver, as an undergrad in Boston I had a lot more help.

Oh wow! Thanks for all the info, I have heard few bad things about Vancouver (mainly that its expensive and that it rains a lot in the winter) but everything else sounds amazing! I may have more concrete questions during the summer when I have to find an apartment and get ready to move, but for now that was a fabulous introduction!

I don't know much of anything about Vancouver, but I'm going to visit in a few weeks... I'm attending a master's program there (anthro). Any insight into the city would be great! I know its fairly expensive, but does anyone know what neighborhoods I should check out? Whats the campus like? Any tidbit to help me envision my future, haha!

Anyone?
