[Does waiting to accept affect funding?]

That's a good suggestion.

[Does waiting to accept affect funding?]

Hi Everyone,

I have been accepted into a program that I am really excited about. However I have not yet received anything official about funding. My program advisor has told me unofficially about an assistantship. I am wondering if I wait before accepting the offer, do you think that will help me get more funding from the school? Or will they be more willing to offer more if I go ahead and accept now?
